Another beer that I had on my trip to Chile. This beer had a modest grainy hops aroma with maybe slight notes of yeast and barley. The color was clear yellow-gold with a thin head with small features. It had a bitter taste with some grain present, and a light sweetness too. The body was thinner with average carbonation, a light mouthfeel and was somewhat dry. Nothing too distinguishable about this beer, but it was ok.

Way better than Cristal, this beer is actually drinkable, it has a small hint of hops, and a not so bad finish.

not all that bad really. a bit of a skunky hops taste, which is more than most pale lagers. worked hard through 1L witha plastic twisty cap trying to detect ta bad aftertaste but didnt find any, thats saying a lot for a lager

Not too bad really. Golden color and a quickly dissipating head. Cereal grains on the nose. Low carbonation with a grainy finish. Quite drinkable.

Seemed to have a bit more flavor than Cristal. A bit more color than other yellow lager offerings. Slightly sweet, grainy flavor. Overall the same ol’ thing, but in a country known for wine (Chile), beggars can’t be choosers.

Bottle. It’s yellow, it’s white, it’s beery, it’s industrially bad. Indistinguishable from Cristal except in price.

Many samples from the omnipresent 1 liter glass bottles with screw off PLASTIC caps. Sweet hay. A vegetal mess of a beer.

How surprising Corona is as bad as in palate says since I was young. this one was creamy and sweet, a little, good foam and nice shape. Was my last Chilean beer from my actual stash.
