Taiwan Beer Gold Medal Draft - 金牌台湾生啤酒 "The Hideaway"

Not having posted here in a span of time does not mean I haven't further imbibed in some of Taiwan's local brew. It's tough sweating up a storm feeding a hungry kid, and hence carbo-loading with some beer hits the spot. Along with its brother Taiwan Draft Beer, Taiwan Beer Gold Metal Draft in a bottle is rather hard to find in a local store if one is thirsting for it. Thankfully, one day I made it to the basement of Breeze Center and into c!ty'super just to gaze at their european beer selection. Lo and behold I saw they carried the latter and so naturally had to buy one for more celebration of earth's new addition.

A more artistic label than that of its sibling.

Nice head, but loses form in only a few minutes.

Tastes much much better than regular Gold Medal by a long mile.

On day of imbibing, temp outside was 29. Definitely good sunny day for a brew. 

Burps arriving on time like a Swiss train.

Same slight bitterness as with the regular Gold Medal.

Actually rather good. Will add it along with Taiwan Draft Beer.
