midovark (4274) - Budapest, HUNGARY - JUL 11, 2019UPDATED: JUL 11, 2019 Can. Pours deep, opaque golden with white head. Nose is slightly resinous, more fruity and foral hops, some honey notes. Taste is fruity hops up front, then some super slight booze and an interesting character appear, this latter I associate with the enzyme used in brut beers. Closes with moderately dry, longlastin fruity, somewhat bitter finish, has medium body and average carbo. Tasty, but doesn’t really seem like a lager.

drjoeng (2228) - SINGAPORE - MAR 10, 2019UPDATED: MAR 10, 2019 8%ABV. Lager.
Tapped out gold. 6 °SRM.
Nose has aromas of soursop, guava, ripe grapefruit, passion fruit. Pinous aromas of pine, cedar, spruce. When concentrated, there is a good spicy body to the nose that suggests pine oil and pine resin.
Mouthfeel is juicy and full.
Palate has flavors of crackers and light toast.
Hop flavors are pine needles, spruce tips, Japanese cedar foliage, grapefruit peel on tail end with an citrus oil finish.
Finish is medium long with sappy bitter. It is also boozy, spicy, sweet with an bitter woody palate that suggests incense or sandalwood water.
Overall, the dry hopping and ABV masked any lager character which made me wonder what the entire excercise was about. An enjoyable beer to be sure, but still scratching my head about the intent.
