Kook Soon Dang Rice Makgeolli White Grape
Bottle. Yet another nuance of white with a small white head, as long as it sparkes of carbonation. Aroma is grapefruits, rice and some key lime and marshmallows. Flavour is tart fruit candy with grapefruits and some citrus tones. Somewhat dry. Quite rich carbonation.

Bottleshare at CBJ. Thanks to Paul for the plastic bottle. Hazy whitish gold beer, no head. Light dry palate, reasonable fine minerally carbonation. Sweet floral peach. Totally fake flavour but actually hard to hate. It's a guilty pleasure, wouldn't want half a pint.
