Canned. Pours golden with decent, but quickly dissipating head. Aroma is very faint malt. Flavour is better than expected, with at least a hint of hops. Better than what I had in Ecuador.

Bottled. A clear yellow beer with a medium sized and fast disappearing white head. Rather weak aroma, lightly malty with a herbal note. The flavout is not overly sweet, instead it has an almost decent herbal hoppiness. Light to medium body, lively/fizzy carbonation, dry sweetish finish with light bitterness. A boring beer.

This might be one of the worst abominations of liquid to ever grace the United States with its presence. This illegal alien of the alcohol world pours a light golden color with a quickly dissipating white head and little lacing. The aroma is corny, sweaty socks, wet dog, cardboard with absolutely no hop presence or any redeeming qualities whatsoever. My nose literally couldn’t stand to be within 1 foot of the glass the aroma was so horrid. The flavor is tart and acetic with explosive carbonation levels. The finish is super-dry. The flavors are equally as bad with wet dog, malts, and sweaty socks mixed in with that sour tartness. Shudderingly light bodied with heavy carbonation. It’s like I’ve stuck my nose right up someone’s asscrack and smelled. Its like salt and grapefruit mixed together with astringent corn.... dear god.. i think i’ve got it... its cream of corn in a bottle..... this is one mystery I’m sad to say I’ve solved. An absolutely repulsive beer that could be partially responsible for Colombia’s suckiness.

Tea colored pour with small head and good lacing. Stronger in the malt flavors than most and a nice touch of hops. Greatly enhanced by the company of 3 ladies and a nice piece of beef on the veranda overlooking a park.

On draught at La Olla Cartagena, Ave San Martin in Bocagrande. pours a very clear light gold color. White head fades fast. Light body, well carbonated, slight crisp hpp presence. Clean, less malty thqn the limited edition Red. Nice beach beer.

I drank this beer from a tall glass in the Bogota airport. The beer had a slightly, but clear gold color with an average-sized foamy white head that had only slight cling and retention. The aroma featured a mixture of grainy and grassy hops with a touch of malt, but was not that pronounced. Its flavor was grainy and bitter, without much else to characterize it. The body had a slightly full mouthfeel with some carbonation and was slightly dry.

On plane to Santiago, this was the best offering... a generic pale lager with some surprising prickly hop bitterness in the finish hence the higher score than usual for such beers. Actually not bad - at 38,000 feet!

travel is what you make of it. we make it better. cheap beer doesn’t have to be expensive

Pale yellow with a fizzy white head. Lots of carbonation. Smells like corn, some malts and wet paper. Sweet corn flavors are overpowered by its dry sourness. Bitter, astringent finish.

I got this from Senor Diego at work... Anyway it has a slightly cloudy golden/orange color with moderate carbonation and a sweet honey malt smell. Taste is kind of watered down malt and finishes pretty flat. Overall this was not my kind of pilsener mostly because of the lack of a crisp finish.
