Nakhon Premium Beer

Nakhon Brewing Company
Brewed at San Miguel Thailand
Style: Premium Lager
Los Angeles, California USA

Serve in Lager glass

Pours a golden pale yellow color with aroma of floral hops, and slight citrus. At first taste, you feel the carbonation across your tongue leaving a clean finish that lacks character. An easy drinking beer that I was surprised was quite drinkable. Overall a simple beer that was refreshing to drink.

Sampled on 3/19/2010. This Premium Lager pours a orange gold color from a 33cl bottle. Small sized white foamy head. The aroma is cereal and grain, with a touch of sweetness. A medium bodied premium lager. The malts are fruity and sweet. The hops are slightly spicy. Decent carbonation. No noticeable off flavors. Not much flavor to begin with. Not much here , a touch of corn sweetness and some carbonation. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

Bottle from Star Grocery in Berkeley, CA. Pours very pale gold with a large bubbly/foamy white head. Mild citric grassy aroma. Sort of floral too. Medium body with creamy, but coarse, carbonation. It tastes mildly spicey, mildly fruity. It has a really nice clean aspect. Very good lager. Fresh. Quite drinkable alone.

You have to compare this to the beers where this is from, from Singha to Chang to San Miguel who brews them, this is not an american pale lager. Based on that, this is a much easier beer to drink than the other Thai beers, but has little character. Light malty notes, zero hops, Singha at least has 100% malts so you get that there, but not here. Overall, nice packaging, easy drinking, but overall just average.

Light golden color with a moderate white head. Sweet pale malt along with floral and soapy scents. Fairly dry with bits of bitterness in the middle. A watery in the tastes. Would likely go well with spicy food.

Pours a straw golden color little bit of white head very sweet aroma rice .... lager sweet taste and a little lemony .... its easy drinking and very typical asian beer taste

Bottle. Pours straw gold with a fast dissipating head. Aroma of serious rice, grain, and sugar. Palate has prickly, refreshing carbonation, and flavor has light lemon zip, fresh white rice, and a bready touch. Finishing body is super dry, gosh this reminds me of Asahi or Yebisu! OK at best, but at least its refreshing.
