COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Josh's translation of the Spanish description: At first glance of it’s brilliant amber colour, you’ll see a lager beer in the Pilsner style. But this Kölsch is radically different. It is a smooth ale, but well-hopped. It has a lot of body and enjoys a fruity flavour, displaying the purity of its components. It is freshly aromatic, with a dry finish, a product of the hops. The alcohol content is 5% abv This style is well-suited to accompany cheese, and freshly picked produce.

Really nice easy drinking beer. Some dyacetil is present like in All antares beer but it’s well suited in this beer

Smells like ass, tastes like crap but after the Amsterdam Maximum I just drank on the Roca train this is bliss. Mind you everything is relative, and the free peanuts at my side d favours for this beer in Adrogue. The colour is cloudy - I don’t really have any other more complimentary statements to make about it. A little better than the average lager. Some malty grain taste.

Not much to say about this one. Golden colour, average white head. Grainy and light malty aroma. Watery taste, some sweetnes there. Light body, thin feel, average carbonation and watery finish. An average lager. Not good.

Poured golden with a small white head. Nice floral aroma, grassy flavour with a lttle bitterness. Well balance, well crafted beer.

No Argentine beers available where I live other than Patagonia, so finding this one at Brewery Creek was a pleasant surprise. This head was almost miniscule, being thin, white, and gone in a flash. The body was a hazy dark gold, and the aroma featured mostly hops. The taste was hopped along with what might’ve been some caramel-like sweetness. Mouthfeel and finish were quite enjoyable.

drpimento (1695) - La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA - MAR 16, 2009
Got this bottle from nearby Supermercado Carrefour off the shelf, second in, Recoleta, Buenos Aires. I can see what they’re trying to do here, while not really succeeding as a Kolsch, it’s not a bad brew. Poured with a white head and a little lace. Has a hazy golden color. Aroma is malty, a little earthy, a hint of hop, and grain. Flavor’s about the same with a little sweetness. Carbonation is decent. Maybe just a tad thin. Good finish. Not a Kolsch, but very drinkable. I’d get it again.
