Pours yellow. Nose is grain, bread corn. This is basically Colombian Bud. Not terrible, very drinkable.

cool, this beer is meant for those 18, very nice. This one was a very clear yellow with little head. I got sawdust and canned pears in the aroma. Very light and refreshing and absolutely no skunk.

Lubiere (6707) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 5, 2007
A tiny 250 mL bottle brought back by my GF’s mom. A pale lager with a creamy white head. Light corn aroma. In mouth, crisp in mouth, refreshing and inoffensive.

Dorqui (1547) - Brescia, ITALY - JUL 21, 2005
Bottled 0,25L. Found in a China & African market in Brescia. Light and evanescent foam. Yellow gold color, limpid and discreetly bubbly. Fresh and bitter scent, lightly watery on the end. Little prickly and much hoppines taste. Overbearing bitter and unbalanced. Short and watery end.

LilKem (1210) - Marietta, Ohio, USA - FEB 19, 2006
Kind of funky pale ale, with some hints of pineapple and pears, and lots o funk. not skunky, but just a little.. "hmmm... that’s interesting" flavors going on.

This beer is one of the better Colombian lagers. There is actually a taste of grassy bitterness and the beer goes down very easily. No offensive qualities to this beer.
