Das Bier ist leicht bitter und hat einen Malzunterton, der irgendwie nicht zum Bier passt. Das Bier schäumt im Mund angenehm auf und bietet im Nachgeschmack eine leicht herbe Note. Für chinesiches Bier gut. Test vom 18.10.2006, Gebinde: Dose Noten: 4,7,8,6,4,7 - 6,55

Green can. Clear gold with no head. Aroma has harsh rubber overtones, wood shavings, and hardware. Ugly. Slick palate with low carbonation. Flavors are not so bad, with sweet corn, rice roast lingering. Has some body and is not as bad as it smells.

Dull gold with no head. Plasticy, gasoliney aroma with a hint of apple sauce. Water, with some vague foulness and grains. Disappears quite quickly.

Can. A light golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and straw, leading to a dry bitter finish. The body is light. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

(Can 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Kim N. Clear pale golden with a white head. Sweet rice aroma. Light-bodied, soft mouthfeel with very sweet brewing cereal notes. No bitterness. 030608

35.5 cL can, alcohol content says >=3.6 - I guess you could be more lucky with some cans. Pours clear yellow with a fully diminished white head. Vague cornish aroma. Flavour is dry and bitter cornish. Slight cardboard note to a vague bitterness. Mild watery finish.

Can. Seeing this on a supermarket shelf in Guangzhou, China, I suspected it would be a rarity. I pity the folks who have to drink this piss regularly. Watery, pale yellow, a disgrace to the art of brewing. The rice used seems to be of the watery variety.

Canned. Pale yellow, lemonady head. Sweet and fruit ywithlight body. A touch of lemon, but no hops nor bitterness. Standard Chinese junk.
