Brazilians pronounce this one "Ant-OKT-chee-kah" and rate it as one of their best. I failed to see why, although it is very cheap. It is a very light straw colour and is easy drinking, but makes no shakes with me.

Very faint hazy pale yellow unhealthy urinous colour with a small short lasting white head - but some faint lace. Very faint marzipan metallic stale hops aroma. Thin very watery body. Depressing dilute antiseptic, bandaid and skunky flavours. Yep like Bud, it definitely deserves to be amongst the world’s worst.

Little bit of a skunky aroma. Clean and clear appearance with active bubbles throughout. Quite refreshing. Smooth going down.

Most of the beers I drank in Brazil, it has to be admitted, weren’t great, but this was certainly the best of the mainstream beers. Not saying much of course, but better than the alternatives. Drank lots of it, so sort of a sentimental favourite.

Among the worst ever. This takes ’skunky’ to a new level that completely blasts away all American beers. I apologize to my pilsner glass for putting this swill into it. You know you’re addicated to this web site when you’re drinking crap that you know will be crap, just to get more ratings. I never drank anything that came in a can before I started on ratebeer.

Pale color, slightly sour aroma, significant sourness in the taste-but it’s a very nice sour, otherwise this brew is crisp and refreshing with a touch of bitterness, I’m just so delighted that this beer is not run-of-the-mill, twice now Brazil has surprised me with slightly unusual brews (Xingu), cool penguins sculpted into the bottle’s glass, if you like a sour beer this deserves a taste-good luck finding it though

A buddy of mine brought me back 6 different Brazilian beers. This was the first I tried. You know when you watch a movie and it is so bad that it is funny, hence it becomes enjoyable. You know, like Glitter or Howard the Duck. This beer fits into that category. This beer is so watery that it could be used to rinse your mouth between real beers. But, the more I drank this beer, the funnier it got. About 2/3 of the way in, I think I ruptured my spleen from laughter. Notes of skunkiness and pure funk began to come out. The only time you should drink this beer is if every other beverage within 500 miles will give you E. Coli.

Is this water?? No, water tastes better.

It was probably the beer I drank most while in Brazil so I give a higher mark than it otherwise should probably receive.
