Bottle poured golden with a short white head. Aromas of rice, corn, and a touch of grassy hops. Flavor is just about that.. Corn, some rice, maybe a touch of honey and grain. Finish is lingeringly sweet. Odd that AB makes better beer in china than they do in their own country.. I will put this a touch above budweiser but it really isn’t that good..

Eh. Ok, I suppose, compared to Bud Light. Clear gold in color, quarter-inch white head. Sweet corn and malt aroma, maybe a bit skunky. Thin bodied, thin sweet flavor. Not much to recommend.

Clean light orange body. A little skunk, slightly sweet and fruity aromas. Very light flavor, pleasant aftertaste. Reminds me of a light Henekien. Better than Bud.

Clear golden pour with lots of head. Not a lot of flavor. No real finish, not much of anything.

Bottle. Pours sparkling gold with a spare frothy white head, mostly diminishing, spare lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (grain, meal, straw), light hops (grass), and average yeast (sweat). Light bodied, thin texture, average carbonation and a metallic finish. Light sweetness, acidity and bitterness.

From a twelve ounce bottle purchased at the "Western Hills Plaza Kroger’s" on Glenway Avenue in Cincinnati, Ohio - This is a Chinese version of an American macrolager - a tad better, but stil crap. What is it with most Asian beers, anyway?

I shoulda known this was AB. Oh well, at least I only bought 1 bottle. Very pale looking and very watery tasting. Bit of nice hoppy aroma, and just a bit of the hops in the palate, but nothing more to write about. No off tastes anyway.
