The color was light golden. The head was creamy and off-white. The aroma was corn and rice. The flavor was corn syrup. The palate was average. the finish was abrupt.

Little or no head; yellow-golden beer. Dull malts, chalk, faint lemonbalm. Rather bitterish initial taste, but immediately going into watery flavour & MF, only enlivened by some carbonation. Fizzy-ish, watery. Less than average lager. I wonder what hails some importers. They offer this ultra-bland lager from Lion Brewery, but no way to get the Stout.
Potassium metabisulfite????

Pale malt aroma with a light touch of grassy hop. Brassy gold color with a fizzy white head that was impressive til it flattened. Medium body with fizzy/creamy carbonation. Almost light caramel malt flavor with very light hop. Pretty dry, near tart, finish. Better than your average American macro.

Bottle. Nothing too exciting about it, but ticks all the boxes for a good drinkable lager. Goes nice with Thai food.
