Would definitley drink it over water if the source was in question. Can’t think of many other reasons to ... unless I was stranded in the mountains. That could be refreshing.

Bottle. A light clear yellow. The aroma is a little sour, a touch of skunk, a bit sweet. It almost stings on the first sip but settles into an all too familiar bad lager taste.

Well, if you can’t drink the water in Central America, this will suffice. If you’re really thirsty

Smells of corn, light yellow, fluffy head. Light tasting, some grassiness, metalic aftertaste. Ho hum. Washes the nachos down well though!

Strong skunky aroma and flavor, with both sharp sweetness and astringent bitterness, leaving a finish that is somewhat acidic, artificial, and sickening. Plain lager appearance. Another in the long list of awful beers I’ve tried in the name of geographic representation.

I haven’t many beers that looked like this one. Great white head, small bubbles but extremely pale in color. Aroma of skunky lager. Sweet but with bits of hop finish (faint but still). Better than I expected.

total and complete crap....what do kellogg’s corn flakes and this beer have in common? A fuckin chicken on the label and corn as the main ingredient.

Okay, you’re a brewer, you’ve put your life’s work into a few beers that you will attempt to sell. Your pocketbook and the continued existence of your brewery hinge largely on how your beer is perceived by the public, which is dependent in no small part on the label and the bottle. "Let’s see...we need our beer to look cool. People need to look at the label and want to drink it. Oh, I know, I’ll put a picture of a rooster on it. Yeah, people will really buy it." I gave it a 4 in appearance just because the rooster gave me something to talk about here. For the rest of the beer, see my ratings of Brahma Chopp, Pilsener of El Salvador, Antartica Pilsen, and Zambezi.

got this beer the same time i got moza only for $1.00. very pleasant beer to sit down and drink. fluffy white head caught my eye, very smooth going down, sat very well on the palate.

Palest urine color- what mine might look like after drinking this beer; Head was impressive- fluffy and shockingly white; Aroma of detergent. Crisp mouthfeel but flavors are waferthin. Boring. Corn shines through at 1/3 mark.
