Another from Mspindler.. Pours a clear yellow with a fluffy white head.. Smells grassy like a heineken.. Bready tasting.. I told Mike it left an after taste like I just had some shrimp fried rice.. Might switch to this when I go get some sushi.

Bleh. Fizzy but no head. Cardboard flavors. I like an occasional light lager in this style, but not this one.

Bottle, Zeke’s. Clear dark gold with hardly any head. Sweet but clean aromas are not bad at all. Medium carbonation, quaffable. Sweet malts carry some fruitiness into the refreshing palate. Decent.

Yellow and kind of dirty lookin but clear. Smells like rice grain and malt. Not a whole lot there other than a slight skunkiness.Tastes of barley and rice and nothing more. I really dont have anything else to add.Clean and kind of crisp which is all the good I can say.

Ha! Call it Harbin, brew it in Wuhan. Inspired by the culture of Heilongjiang...yes I can taste the ice and snow sculpture festival right now. I can see it in the dull yellow colour and smell it in the generic eurohop nose. Sweetish, clean with saazy accents and straw malts. Way too much flavour to be inspired by Chinese brewing culture.

Pours a pale, golden color with a white head. Aroma is of grain, earthy hops, and a slight citrus aroma. More flavor then I was expecting but not much. Grainy, floral hops, and a hint of citrus. Crisp finish. A little better than I expected.

surprising flavor from one of the clearist beers ive ever seen, if your from the states, your probably just giving it a try, and its worth it, but only once.

2008 Bottle - Pours a lt orange with a large off-white head...aroma is grassy malt, corn and lager skunk...flavour isn’t bad...there isn’t much to it, but it isn’t bad...sweet grainy malt, light citrus and hop bitters, heavy carbonation...probably the least offensive beer I’ve had from AB...
