Harbin Beer, the earliest Chinese beer, brewed in 1900 in the origin of the beer industry in China. With hundred years of infusion of China’s traditional culture Harbin Beer brings a pure good taste. Inspired by the Tradition and Culture of China’s Most Northern Province of Hellongjiang.

EdKing (767) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - MAY 3, 2011
Bottle from Morrisons Supermarket. Pours very light yellow, not much of a head. In fact not much carbonation. Flat light and weak tasting lager.

Aggie80 (740) - Michigan, USA - JAN 19, 2007
Golden light yellow pour with some nice head and some lacing. A bit astringent in the overall flavor, but a nice malty aftertaste that went very well with the Chinese meal. Good bubbles throughout.

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.

tomciccateri (681) - Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA - OCT 25, 2006
330 ml green bottle with apparent brewed on date on back label. Very clear gold color with fast fading white head and pronounced skunky aroma. Light body with lots of carbonation, slight malt and hops flavor detectable, but mostly full mouthfeel from the CO2. Otherwise, no apparent off flavors. Budwesier for the growing masses?

piss poor raunchy lager. Probably got lead poisoning now that I think about it. I new it was made by Matel, I mean Busch.

UPDATED: MAR 27, 2007 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?

renffisch (642) - london, Greater London, ENGLAND - OCT 19, 2009
600ml botte from morrisons. Sweet corny lagery malt nose. straw colour with a faint resemblance of a head that quickly disappeared. quite refreshing in a metallic, sweet sense. nothing spectacular but went well with liver dumplings in caper sauce... if thats a recommendation is another thing...

Bottle...pale, pale golden color...nice thick foam on pour..aroma has much to be desired...just smells like a common beer...only been a few minutes and foam is already dissipating...palate is thin and light...taste is nothing much... a beer; just an ordinary lager...wanted to try it because ive never seen it in Jerzee and the packaging was snazzy...well, its not undrinkable but this will be my last bottle...(unless of course a friend offers it to me at their house...I wouldn’t want to be rude now)...:)...whoo hoo! I made the rating change from 9 to 8!!!
