Pale yellow with short white head. Fruity, tropical aroma. Clean grassy flavor, unsweetened making it somewhat dry. Moderate body and mouthfeel.

Head is white foam, Dissapears fast. clear beer with a golden color. Aroma is nice and fruitymedium bitterness, heavily sour, Ligth Body thin feel, average carbonation, bitter, This is not a beer to my taste. The aftertaste is what makes this beer even more bitter.

Bottle. Clear golden colour with a thin white head. Aroma and flavour of malt and hops.

(Bottle) Its nice every once in a while when a new beer shows up on the shelf of your local bottleshop... This isn’t one of those occasions.

Bottle: Pours a pale gold with a thin white head that bubbles away. Initial aroma is strong grassy hop that fades slightly with the head, backed by a thin malt aroma. Flavour is soft grainy sweetness with a nice bitterness in a clean finish. One of the better pale lagers that I’ve tried.

Any first impressions?
-A ring of foam crowns the watery gold transparency.
-Sweet grain emanations are all I can perceive in the nose, aside from the initial unleashing of skunkiness.
-Basic cereal sweetness actually meets some noble hops, but they are all bathing in the hotel pool.
-Its body is really well built, and remains my favorite feature; its malty roundness and soft effervescence work together competently.

What if you dig deeper?
-Fruity honey develops within the simple cereal notes.
-There is no reason to dig very deep here, since you’ll hit ground water very quickly.
-The brewer’s abilities are not the ones being punished here. It is rather the remarkably boring nature of the recipe which won’t please this site’s tasters.
-This is not offensive at all, and would make a decent poolside drink in the good beer wasteland that is southern Thailand.

Bottle (for export only?); no date.

Lightly hazed straw color with a moderate white head. Grass and floral hops along with a touch of perfume and pale malt. Watery flavors of rice and mild noble hops. Light bitterness. A decent first brew of the day, but after that it gets real thin and boring.

Bottle. Pours blond with a small fizzy white head. Nose is wet, freshly cut grass, light grain, cardboardy malts and faint fruit notes. Taste is much sweeter than expected. Sugary malts, cereal, light grains, citrus and faint grassy hops. Body is light and bordering on watery. Finishes with more sweet malts, sugary cereal flavors, light honey, and grains. Bad but could have been worse.
