Beach Rd. Lager is made Exclusively for The Raffles Hotel in Singapore by Paulaner’s Singapore Bräuhaus and is only sold at the hotel. This beer is 4.5% ABV and uses premium Franconian barley malt and Mandarina Bavarian hops. From what my waiter told me, this beer is made right across the street from the Raffles, named after Stamford Raffles, an English colonial official and governor of the East India Company who founded Singapore for the British in 1819. This beer pours an amber color with a one-finger white head. The aroma is malts and some light hay-like notes. The flavor is smooth and lightly malted. It has more carbonation than most lagers I’ve had. But that does not necessarily make this bad or good, it just is. This has a light mouthfeel. The finish is a touch bitter with light malts. The aftertaste is slightly less carbonated. This was not bad. I found this beer interesting, but I give it a C+. It was good, but Paulaner makes other better beers, and that is why I think it doesn’t get any higher than a C+. It is worth a try if you are in Singapore at the Raffles Hotel. You might never have it if you don’t. Please stay safe, be kind to each other, and remember to enjoy responsibly! Cheers!
