Zhujiang Gold Lager has sweetish malt tones and is very very light in hop flavour.There is a quick clean finish.When poured,head was slight and carbonation sustained throughout the time the beer was tasted.

[2] Review by Chopz from Cantley, Canada who has tried this beer once. (8/28/2006 2:02:59 AM)
"Comes in a green bottle with 5.3% ABV and best before date stamped on bottle: 24.04.2007 and produced date: 25.04.2006. Colour is golden with very tiny sediments floating around that are hard to see. The rest is sad. Small white fizzy head that disappears real quick and no trace of lace. No carbonation, very flat. Alcohol and corn aromas that are not pleasant. At least the taste is refreshing for hot summer days, with some light malt... but not worth buying again."

[3] Review by beercronic from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (7/6/2006 11:13:27 PM)
"Plain old pale straw in colour, dump out caused a big white head that actually lasted a couple of minutes. This beer does not look like it's ill like most the others from this country. Smell doesn't aggrivate the nose, but does not excite it either - rice and grain - slightly sour. Virtualy no flavour, but what is there is quite drinkable albiet watered down and a little sweet and ricey. Empty mouthfeel, some light bitterness on the finish. One of the better Chineese beers I've had. I read that China has a huge push to create drinkable wine...maybe they can do the same for their beers."

[4] Review by chenli from Richmond, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (5/3/2006 10:33:14 PM)
"Green Bottle (330mlx6) Was recommended to me to try as I am a lager drinker with meals.(Enjoyed this one with very spicey Chinese).Poured golden and clear with slight hop aroma,(fresh sample with 9 months to go).Very slight lacing but a somewaht sustained head.Standard lager but with a unique taste.Not a huge body compared to some other standard Euro lagers but held it's own.Was fresh and quenching (especially with the food) finished with lingering malt.In Asian restaurants would order this over a Canadian macro or Tsingtao.Very good price in Liquor Store and at this restaurant."

[5] Review by oh6gdx from Vaasa, Finland who has tried this beer once. (4/16/2006 3:50:47 AM)
"Canned as Zhujiang Beer, brought by a friend who visited China. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is rice and maize, with soemthing that reminds of an alcoholic sting! Flavour is rice and maize, with hayish hoppiness coming in. Well mixed, but I bet this would be more a beer you enjoy drinking in the sun when it's really hot outside... "
