I would not call this a classic anything, but classic imitation of crap. Does not go anywhere, in any of the categories that I rate, goes down really harsh, and really fast. Finish is sour and bland.

Drunk this trash in San Adreas, Columbia. It wasn’t bad, light pale malts showing, not skunky, just bland and plain.

Bottle @ Odense Tasting, Feb 2010. Pours clear and pale piss yellow with a off white head.Horrible cheap malty corn nose and flavor. Syrup& sugar. Watery.. Dammn

(in can – gift of a friend). The color is a very pale golden, which gives the water impression. The aroma is casí imperceptibly, something of grasses, and very little of malt. The flavor is lightly bitter, without much more that to say of it. The body and the texture are very weak, thin. it is one more of the "equatorial" beers.

Beer #4 in the line-up at The International Night Of Swill, and the first in the Columbian one-two punch provided by tupalev. Cute little 296 mL can with foil on top to give it some extra class. Colour is pale yellow with a greenish tinge. Aroma is vegetal and strangely fishy. Flavour is pretty much nothing, just fizzy water with a little metallic tinge. No wonder they all drink rum down there...

Bottled, in New York, NY.
Pale yellow fizz. Large course bubbles. Sh*thouse adjunct/corn aroma.

UPDATED: OCT 31, 2005 Smells like a skunk’s ass after a bad bought of diarrhea. Some mild sweetness in there as well. Perhaps said skunk ate some flowers. Pale gold with a tiny head. Corn syrup sweetness with a lot of carbonation. It almost tastes like McDonalds french fries in the finish. Maybe they use discarded french fries in the brewing process. Still it probably works nicely in a sweaty Colombian Bodega.

Bottled 33cl. Nothing much to write home about. Grainy, metallic and reminiscent of boiled vegetables. Sampled a bit too warm.

I thought that the thinnest beer I’d ever try is Red Stripe, but this Club Colombia seems to be a good beer from the outside, unfortunately its content is so disgusting.
