Bottle, Market Street in McKinney, TX. Pours a straw yellow with minimal head retention. Aroma of slight malt with slight citris. Flavor is the same. High carbonation with light mouth feel......It’s not a bad beer, this is the way I would want our Macro’s to taste like for $5.60 a six pack.

Standard gold color with a fizzy white head. Aroma and flavor of malt and grain. Thin palate. Nothing much going on with this.

We just recently got this on our order pad in Morrisons Fleet so of course I had to order some in. Today I put them on the shelf and of course bought one for myself so I can tell customers about it (Good Excuse). The look of the bottle apealed to me straight away as it’s very eye catching. The tast is not as strong as you thought it would be which is very suprising. First taste of it I wasn’t to sure but a few mouthfuls and im impressed by it. I wouldn’t class it as a regular drink but if I saw it out in a pub then this would be one of those I would drink. Price was about around about £1.80. This is a drink you would have every so often, not all the time. I would recomended this to any of my customers

12 oz green bottle Harbin Brewing Company - Wuhan China. Clean pale malt aroma with touch of spiciness. Clear yellow/light gold with small white head. Light spiciness and pale malt flavor. Dry finish. Light thin body. Okay light lager.

Just like Tsing Tao, only not as offensive. No evidence of hops, barley any malt. Monster head! No lacing. Grassy taste like Tsing Tao. Skip or run past it, just like a homeless person begging for change, if you stop they got you.
