Not good. Sweet and sticky malts. Little hops or bitterness to speak of, pretty bad, i haven’t had regular Tiger in a while, but it would probably be better than this. Not particularly special in anyway over the regualt Tiger, this is just more concentrated with atocuh more alcohol.

A Singaporean student brought back a three-pack of cans from Singapore for me. He says this is not the same as the standard Tiger Beer, but the taste is not far off. The 330ml gold can reads "Classic Special Edition" in big red lettering. The abv is stated to be 5.5% and "DFS" (?) is marked on the top.

The beer is a slightly orange-ish gold and clear as day. The foamy head is dense and off-white. Aroma is nutty and sweet. The sweetness shows up in the slightly strange-tasting front. The middle is just a little fruity, leading to a bitter, but sugary finish. Obvious alcohol betrays this as possibly the "strong" version of regular Tiger Beer.

There aren't really enough good beer flavors going on here. Just straight sugar + uninteresting bitterness. (Some nuts, too, to be fair). It's kind of like drinking with a cold.
