365 Drinks: #265 Andaman Gold Lager (Myanmar)

Our little cactus Jésus is still pushing through, waiting to go to Merrikuh!

Myanmar has more beer choices than expected so I couldn’t resist but getting another one for today’s drink. This time the weak little brother of the Andaman Special I had a couple of days ago, an Andaman Gold Lager. Truly weaker with only 4.5 percent alcohol (booo) but with the same Kingfisher-like can. The pale golden body with a creamy white foam had not much of a smell. Marginally sweet and malty, but basically just like sniffing on glass of water. Not a surprise but unfortunately the taste was similar. It was very water with a slight hoppy note to it. I have to admit that it was quite refreshing to drink but this was probably due to the hot weather and the fact that I was thirsty. The whole beer reminds me more of sparkling water than a real beer and is so much different to the (disgusting) flavour-packed Andaman Special.
