Commercial Description:
Note that the label says "Special Imported Ale", but this is clearly a pilsner style lager. The "NB" stands for "Naturally Brewed", and research shows that it contains rice. This beer does not appear to be available in Thailand but is still available in export markets.

Bottle: Clear yellow, vibrant, moderate head, sudsy white, mildly carbonated, little lacing.   Sweet straw and grass on the nose.   Pale malt flavor, somewhat sweet, a bit corn/rice like but not bad.   Fairly smooth, clean, I think sweeter than most other examples.   Moderate body and mouthfeel.   A dash of pale fruit skin in this one too.   I liked this one more than I had thought.   A bit macro like, but clean and non-offensive.   A very light sweeter than expected pilsner.

Pale, pale straw; Head retained some denseness; Grassy nose. Lacks the spiciness of the other Thai lager. Satisfying enough- is that a compliment: not to offend?

Fizzy golden with thin white head. Mild malty sweetness in the aroma. Taste is of malt with a hint of boiled band-aids in the finish. Decent mouthfeel and carbonation. $1

Cloudy white head, pale gold in color. Faint aroma of grains...no hint of rice though! :) As Presario pointed out...this is a great beer to have with a spicy noodle bowl. Not much in terms of flavor and palate but a very drinkable beer.

Bottle, un-dated. Poured a very light, bright golden with a smort cap of white head... very lightly-suspended floaties in there. First impression from the aroma was "crappy & skunky Thai pale lager"... thankfully the skunk receded after a minute or so, and was replaced by some sweet malts and grass. Light, but fairly pleasant. I rather enjoyed the flavors... sweet pale malts, hints of lemongrass, and a faint floral bitterness coming through in the end. Carbonation was medium-high, and the brew was very lightly-bodied. Left some sticky corn remnance when it was all gone. This wasn’t exciting by any means, but certainly palatable.

Bottle. I could have sworn from the label and name that it was a Belgian / Dutch / German beer, not a Thai beer! Not a bad beer, though. A bit hoppy, and very light colour (almost Pale Ale colour), but very drinkable. Nothing remarkable, probably wouldn’t buy it at a liquor store, but if it’s on the menu, I’ll order it.

This is just plain and simply a beer, nothing special about it and nothing so bad its stands out either. It looks like you every day mass produced lager there is a bit o a metallic skunky smell and lots of carbonation. Slightly sweet tasting for a lager and a good amount of hoppieness. There’s just really nothing good or bad that makes this beer stand out, it’s just a beer."

Very carbonated lively medium yellow with a big head. Light grassy aroma. Not much bitterness. Gentle sweetness and clean. A touch of bread or cookies. Probably be a very good beer to quaff with spicy food.
