1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20
UPDATED: JUL 27, 2006 [Bottled] Pale yellow, extremely brief head. Fruity aroma of melon apple and lime. Sweetish, very bland and really metallic. It seems unlikely that this drink contains either malt nor hops. Finishes with fruits ash and vegetables. A miserable attempt at beer brewing.
1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20
Clear golden coloured body with a lot of bubbles rising from the bottom and a thin fast-dying white head. Aroma of metal, funky malt and cardboard - not pleasant. Light-bodied; Sharp maltiness at first, with cardboard and some water, perhaps a touch of lemons. Aftertaste shows the bitterness from the malt, a touch of grains and some other slightly offensive tastes. Overall, not so great, but that was expected. A fairly mild and subdued beer, with some overt maltiness and a good freshness when drunk in the high heat of Hong Kong. I sampled this 33 cL can purchased a few years ago at 7-11 in Hong Kong (not sure of location), China sampled at home in Washington on 02-May-2010.

Can. Pale gold. Was agitated so has foam. Metallic flavors. Aroma and flavors have some fruitiness (white plums), decent body. Except for the metallic aftertaste is not so bad.
