The can says "Product of South Korea" but is brewed specifically for Pinnacle Drinks, Sydney, Australia. No Korean Brewery is mentioned
Blurb from Untappd: South Korea came relatively late to the pleasures of beer, but independent and boutique breweries are sprouting across the country, showing signs of sophistication. This South Korean lager exhibits clean aromas with an excellent clean cracker malt taste with low to medium bitterness that is crisp and refreshing.

A Christmas gift in 2023, drunk in Apri 2024.
L: Super clear, golden yellow with a frothy but thin white head that leaves lacing on the glass. A lot of carbonation is visible in the glass.
S: On the nose, the beer is very sweet, almost approaching vanilla, but there's a touch of fusel alcohol in there that gives an out-of-place spirit-like aroma.
T: Pretty much as expected from the nose. There's a very sweet malt backbone, a corn-like note and a touch of harsh alcohol underlying everything. The aftertaste is quite thin and soda-like while holding the remnants of the initial sweetness, and does nothing to hide the alcohol note. Halfway through this beer, I contemplated pouring it down the drain. I kept going in the name of science, but for that reason alone...
M: Carbonation is low to medium, with carbonic prickle slightly higher. The body is full.
O: I have previously decried the astonishing mediocrity of Pinnacle Drinks' beers, and this does nothing to dispel those sentiments. This one could even be worse, in fact, when you consider the extremely misleading blurb that accompanies the beer online, hinting that this beer is brewed as part of the burgeoning South Korean craft industry. If this mass-produced swill is what passes as South Korean craft beer, then God help them all.
Cheers!
