2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20 DrSilverworm (2707) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - MAY 21, 2013
12oz bottle, split with b3shine. Found this on the closeout shelf at Party Source for $1. Clear golden color. Good thin white head, leaves a couple bits of lace. Medium body. Smooth, not too strong carbonation, lightly soft texture. Dry finish. Bready flavor. Light hint of citrus in the nose. Taste is kind of odd, unfortunately. Some light pale lager bite to it, little acidity. Bitter, and metallic. Not awful, overall though. Probably pretty tasty fresh.

Bottle to snifter (thanks DrSilverworm). Looks decent; a transparent orange with thin white lacing and lively carbonation. Smells and tastes skunky, doughy, and a little toasty with a below average mouthfeel. Not a fan, but tickers gotta tick!

Bottle from Systembolaget. Golden with a white head which disappears almost instantly. Sweet aroma with some rice, vegetables, minor floral hops. Sweet with some bitterness. Works in Thailand but back home, naeee...

Pours yellow with a quickly disappearing white head. Slight sweet aroma of malt and a minor sweat note reappearing briefly in the flavour too. Slight sweet flavoured, very mild malt note. Mild bitterness in the finish blending smoothly in with remaining soft malt notes.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 PictouRx (120) - Ontario, CANADA - MAY 12, 2013
Competing brand I had in Thailand to Singha. Seems to be avail all over the place there so had it in a 640ml bottle with a spicy thai meal. Now as a beer this is a little better than Singha, crisper and a little more hop to it. Ok overall.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 kapusil (240) - HUNGARY - MAY 11, 2013
0.33l bottle. Golden body with a quickly vanishing white head. Sweet bready malty aroma with a slight toastyness. Sweet bready malty taste with a hint of floral hops. Weak bodied but still an OK lager.

Bottle bought in Chinatown, London. Pours a yellow/gpld colour with a white head, rather thin and uninteresting...
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Marc18 (28) - NORTHERN IRELAND - MAY 6, 2013
Drinking this in Thailand is something of a risk as the alcohol content can vary. The exported version exhibits a light, crisp and soft hoppy taste. Goes well with Thai curries and warm weather.

Light golden colour, no real carbonation, no hop, horrid vegetable cloying adjunct crap malt.
