21oz green bottle purchased @ Bamboo Bar & Grill in Kuta. I thought it odd they used ounces to denote volume on the label.

4.20% ABV if I'm reading the label right. Cost was 52000 rupiah for the bottle after the obnoxious 15% "plus plus" fee.

It's not neutral, nor is it offensive. Instead, it has a skunked taste and aroma, with any hop-derived grassiness eliminated by its dominant off-flavour. Pilsner malts lend it its simple malt backbone.

Smooth, wet, overcarbonated, light-bodied.

A forgettable beer in every respect (except perhaps price). It's a poor attempt at a pilsner, and pales in comparison to even the 30 euro cent canned pilsners available at any large supermarket in Germany. Still better than most Indonesian lagers, I suppose.
