Notebook said "NAPHAC", which probably was my attempt to write cyrillic and try finding it out. Pale golden colour, not much head. Aroma is grain and quite lagery. Flavour is a standard lager with not much interesting. Oakes (8108), gone rambling, Cambodia

They didn’t want me to buy this, but it wasn’t that bad. Boring, but no different that mass-market beer back home. jbrus (4883), Delft, Netherlands
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jul 3, 2005 Bottled. This one is totally not my kind of lager. Skunky hops, thin, nasty bitterness. Drinkable but not enjoyable. leaparsons (4749), Leicester, Leicestershire, England
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Oct 9, 2002 Light gold in colour with a good sized head. Quite a sweet, malty lager. Its almost a Fosters, although marginally superior. SilkTork (4174), Rochester, Kent, England
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 7/20 | Oct 4, 2002 This is sometimes known as Number 5. It has a nice golden colour. It has a heavy mouthfeel, almost chewy. It leans towards a honey taste with little evidence of hops. Not a great beer.

Hmm well sorry to go against the grain, but I liked it. Especially since it was still quite drinkable after over 2 years. Bottle conditioned, aroma is a medium sweet barley smell, with some good sour lagered yeast, musty. There is a great bitter spicy element in this beer. Finishes strong and lightly malty. I will admit the body is a bit soapy tasting, but not watery, AND, I drank this at about 68 degrees! Good hint of fruitiness in the malt. This would be great, fresh in Russia ogivlado (3088), Zagreb, Croatia
