Yellow-gold with a choppy, irregular head. Skunky nose blended with a sour, lemony bite. Lively carbonation makes it crisp, but there's not much else there. Light, corn-like malts with hardly any sweetness. Virtually nonexistent hop aroma or bitterness. Didn't find it as repulsive as some of these other posts, but it wasn't great either. Consistency probably varies from bottle to bottle also.

Light slightly skunked hoppy nose with light touches of grass. Sweet, spritzy body with light roasted hoppy finish, somewhat candyish and dry. Rather disgusting.

yellow color, surprisingly big head, sweet aroma. lots of adjuncts , not much in the way of hops. only interesting thing about the beer is it origin.

How is it that Hondurans can make a better beer than BMC? (well, not a LOT better, but better). Poured a pale gold with big fluffy head - and from top to bottom left an extrordinary curtain of lace! The taste, well.....corn - sweet malts that seem thickened by corn. Hops are not in the mix at all. Again, better than BMC, but that's not saying much, is it!?

transparent golden colour, few head, aroma of plastic, too much carbonation, sweet and oily with a dry roten, vegetable-like finish - pilsner style ? gold medal ?!? come on ... you must be kidding me

I don’t understand why this beer has gotten such bad reviews. It is actually very malty when compared to other beers from this region. Very smooth. Quite possibly what Coors could taste like if better ingredients were used in the brewing process. Very light and easy drinking. Second bottle: I take back the good things that I said before. All the bad ratings are pretty much right on the mark. Obvious quality problems.

Golden coloured, slightly hazy. Grainy, tropical flavour. Not to bad as a tropical lager.

This was my first import ever.

Sammys, no need to worry about being nice to tropical brewers - lack of flavour is one thing, flaws are another. And this beer is riddled with flaws. Slight gold colour; aroma combining noble hops, solvent, creamed corn and Canadian whisky; light body; vaguely malty accent with creamy sweetness, slight astringency and mucho plastic in the finish.

Maybe I’d been in the jungle a while but this was the best tasting beer along Honduras’ eastern coast when I finally arrived. Slightly more bitter than other brands, trace malt and sweet carmel nose. Very drinkable.
