Pours a clear lightly carbonated golden with a thin ring of wispy white head. Papery grassy faint earthy noble hoppy aroma has a touch of soap. Body starts with a bland, earthy grainy dry flavor. Not much going on here at all taste or aroma-wise.

Yellow golden beer with a bubbly dissipatting head. Faint malt and corn aroma, with some wet dog thrown in. Fresh malt and perfumy, biscuity qualities noticed. Decent bodied.

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.

Poured a clear pale gold with a minimal head. Aroma of canned corn and sweet griany malt. Light and short flavor. Very thin. Bitter and dry finish.

Bottled. Golden with a soapy head. Aroma from raw fish. Very thin and papery with maybe some malt and/or hops.
