Golden, with delicate carbonation. Slightly spicy hop overlays very faint pale malt. Somewhat acidic finish with a hint of graininess. Decent balance but lacking in positive flavour traits.

486ml bottle from Beers Of Europe. Yugh - a cardboardy, cereal heavy and ugly pale lager. Very little carbonation. Tastes stale. Can’t find the BBE date. Not nice.

Bottle. Pale gold with a white foam. Aromas are grain and soap with some buttery and biscuit malts. Flavours are clean grain with hints of citrus and metal towards the finish. A bit thin in character. The bottle was nicely designed, though. My version was definately Chongqing Premium at 10.0p but with 4.4% alcohol.

12oz can-pours a thin white head with pale yellow color. Aroma is grain. Taste is grain, creamy, smooth. Mild carbonation. Standard for the region.
