From a 500ml bottle with no date. Clear golden color with a half inch of white head. Smells of light grains with a little sweetness. Light body and slightly slick feel. Light grain and some malty sweetness with floral hops way in the background. Not a lot going on, but it's a well made adjunct lager which is sort of rare. Helps to get a fresh, non-skunked bottle.

12oz can from Korean market. Pale golden, small foamy white head. Aroma is grainy, faint vegetal notes and corn. Taste was sweet, corn, grains. Cooked vegetables notes were few and far between, and mostly just focused on the sweetness and adjuncts.

640mL bottled poured into Duvel tulip. Picked up from the asian market for around $3. No discernable date anywhere, but 20AIAB printed on bottom of front label.
Appearance - Pours very large offwhite head and a supremely clear gold body. Presumably this is the result of the Ice Point filtration system they talk about on their marketing and label. Head lasts forever and had very strong lacing and stick. Between the impressively clear gold body and head that lasts for eternity, I have no choice but to give this a perfect score on appearance. 5
Smell - Body odor. Skunky armpits. Weed. Guess it was sunstruck? Underneath that is dry corny grain and cardboard. A swirl generates some smoother, rounder, softer notes. Mealy grain. Weed scent starts creeping back in after a minute of settling. No but really, it's starting to smell like dank weed. 2.25
Taste - Almost tastes the way dank weed smells. It's unique, I'll give it that. Sounds gross on paper, but it's ok. 3
Mouthfeel - Medium bodied. A little astringent. Tolerable. Not particularly refreshing, and only mildly offensive. 3
Overall - Wouldn't buy again, but not entirely awful, and worth the experience at the very least. 2.75

I found this beer at an Asian grocery store in Rome. Poured from a brown 16.9 oz. bottle. Has a pale yellow color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of grains, malts. Taste is the same as the aroma, highly refreshing. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall I don't understand all of these low scores, I think it's not a bad beer.
