Commercial Description:
Editor's note: The Hatuey brand was owned by the Bacardi family. When the Communists nationalized the brewery, the rights to the brand essentially split - Cuban rights to the Cuban government, global rights to the Bacardis. They now produce the beer, to entirely different specs than the Cuban version, in Puerto Rico. This is the version available in the US.

Pours yellow with a fizzy white head. Smells lemony with some crassy elements. Tastes of sweet malt, some caramel, hints of perfumy hoppiness.

12oz bottle. Could have sworn it was from Mexico but nah! Puerto Rico it be... Pours a clear yellow, with this white head of smaller bubbles. Smells a little tinny, smell some malt no hops. Taste has a bit of hops to it and a little malty aftertaste. Palate is thin but crisp, well carbonated Not a bad beach beer. I could drink this all afternoon. My bottle says 4.5%abv so I don’t know if it’s 4.5 or 5.5.

12 oz bottle, Cuban Revolution restaurant, Providence RI. Pours a slightly hazy dark gold body with minimal to no head retention. Low visible carbonation. Nose is that classic mix of corn and DMS that screams "World Lager". Flavor is laced with corn sweetness as well as some light doughy malt at least. Mouthfeel is thin, watery, and very fizzy as expected. Overall, I guess it was OK for my needs at the moment, as the food was what I was interested in tasting.

STRONGER ALCOHOL PRESENCE (AT LEAST %5.5) IN THESE CANS! A BIT SWEET AND CORNY WITH A COMPONENT LIKE BROWN SUGAR WORKED IN TO -CLASS IT UP-. YOU CAN TASTE A BIT OF NICE HOP FLAVOR (LIKE BALLANTINE ALE). AND YES I SUPPPOSE THAT TASTE COULD BE NOTED AS SOUR (ALTHOUGH I WAS A BIT MORE OPTIMISTIC AT FIRST). I NEVER THOUGHT IT WAS THAT HORRIBLE.
