GG (1980) - NorCal, USA - NOV 4, 2009
Pretty standard South American pale lager. Nothing extravagant, and nothing different. The pour is a pale straw yellow body, TONS of floaties in my beer with a dirty dishwater-like soapy head. Aroma was light grass, a touch of cheap white wine,..kinda a mineral water like smell too. Flavor was very light malt and that’s about it. Easy to drink, no noticeable skunkage.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. Has a fruity grainy aroma. Fruity grainy weak watery flavor. Has a fruity grainy finish.

solidfunk (442) - Ontario, CANADA - DEC 16, 2011
A bit of a skunky hops taste puts this one above most of the Argentine macro lagers. Can’t say much more than that.... it was drinkable while I’m cooking an Argentina parrilla.

maledictum (498) - Granada, SPAIN - AUG 19, 2011
Bottled: Golden coloured. Clear. Is grassy sweet and light fruity. Very poor made standard pale lager. Nothing what so ever is going on in the end.

vyvvy (2798) - Florissant, Missouri, USA - AUG 14, 2011
Pours clear light yellow with a quickly leaving white head. The aroma has pale malt, light veg, lager smoothness and a hint of hops. Medium / light smooth body with a good amount of lightly sharp carbonation. The flavor has some fairly sweet aroma and the rest is pretty much like the aroma traits. The finish is mainly the sweet maltiness. For a basic style lager this is pretty decent.

thegreenrooster (2438) - St.louis, Missouri, USA - AUG 7, 2011
Pour is a bright gold with a white head. Aroma is grain and corn. Flavor is the same. Really light almost to the point of being watery.

Hurracasurf (54) - Montevideo, URUGUAY - AUG 1, 2011
Excelente para tomar mucha cantidad, muy redonda, con un retrogusto a malta, no provoca resaca y saca la sed.

lushawn (2161) - Somerville, Massachusetts, USA - JAN 23, 2011
bottle brought all the way back from Uruguay from my pal julio. some special anniversary casing. very fancy looking. notes of creamed corn, wet grass, touch of bittersweet lemongrass. A bit vegetal. Some light skunkiness. Crisp. Superior to many american pale lagers. Not too bad!

yngwie (8717) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - DEC 9, 2010
Bottle, courtesy of Pinball. A clear, golden beer with a small, white head. Very weak nose and flavor, some pale malts and fruits only, almost free of bitterness. Thin body, and short, weak finish. Yet another super-boring pale lager. Drinkable though. 100814
