Serve in Dimpled mug, English pint, Lager glass, Shaker

Bottle- Pours a light golden color with a moderate head that fades quickly. Has a light grainy aroma, nothing offensive. Surprisingly refreshing with a slight bitter finish. Light and a bit watery. When in Panama, it is a decent choice and compliments the weather. Goes good with the local foods or by itself.

Thanks a lot to my brother for bringing me a can from Panama. Very pale yellow, nearly gold colored body with a bright white head. Lots of fast moving carbonation. The nose is grainy with bran and a little bit of potato. The taste is largely canned green beans with a metallic finish. There is also some raw bread dough, especially in the aftertaste. OK if drank fast and cold.

en aeropuerto de panama. no se ni porque piden rating estas cervezas pero ni modo

Served from a 12 oz bottle while in Panama City, Panama on the honeymoon cruise. THe appearance is a brilliant gold. The aromas and flavors are malty and a light sweetness. Refreshing.

Much better than the same brewery’s light "Atlas" swill, this one was rated at 4.8% and tasted it. A decent swill, and good value for a buck a bottle.

Blonde with decent head. Slightly off-key grainy aroma with some sulfur. Flavor is a bit rough, perhaps sulfur, but altogether is okay and palatable. Not as clean or crisp as Atlas, another Panamania lager.

Bottle. Beer of choice when in Panama though I say not as good as Cerveza Panama. Pours typical pale lager- no details needed. Aromas of corn, maize, faint hops. Taste is sweet, crisp, and refreshing with a slight amount of balancing hops. Not bad whatsoever. The beer of choice at Luna’s Castle.

UPDATED: AUG 14, 2008 Best Panamanian Beer. Flavor is good compared to other national beers, but is decades away from foreign beers.
