InBev Brahma

Brewed by Dommelsche Bierbrouwerij (InBev)
Style: Pale Lager
Dommelen, Netherlands

Bottle. Pale yellow colour with a small white head. Slightly malty grassy aroma. Light body with some maltiness. Watery, no bitterness. Not my kind of beer.

Shapely clear bottle (and it’s all downhill from here...). Clear pale gold, stinky barnyard aroma. On the sweet side, but basically bland bland bland. Don’t pay premium prices for this.

Bottle. Pale straw-yellow body with a small white ring of head. The aroma is grassy and grainy...simple to say the least. The flavour is very watery and light - awfully sweet and grainy flavour along with some corn. Wretched stuff.

Straw color with a thin waxy looking head. Tobacco, grain and white grape aromas. Very sweet liquid. Creamed corn and light malt flavors. Fairly dry finish with a hint of herbal hops. Light nondescript sweet linger. This one begs for some deeper malt character or some more hops balance.

Pale gold with weak white top. Light grainy nose, gentle citric overlap. Very faint hop character. Thin bodied, fairly strong alcohol presence. Light malt work. Short finish. Poor.

Medium yellow with a thin white head. The aroma was a litle skunky with old corn and some cooked green beans. The taste has some funky metallic corn. There is also some raw potato in the finish. A thin mouthfeel. Glad this is cold, I will drink it fast.

From a clear, swoopy sided 12 oz bottle. Urine yellow with almost no head. Smells really bad - acrid corn, kinda funky. Body is really flat, even though there is a cascade of bubbles flying up from the bottom of my glass. Mild, sickly sweet malt-and-corn-funk flavor. On the plus side, the flavors are barely detectable. Not a complete drain pour (I’m likely too kind in that area) but certainly crappy.

Bottle: Poured a golden color lager with a small head that disappeared very quickly. Aroma of corn is quite evident and not that pleasant. Taste is your typical South American pale lager with lots of corn. At least the clear bottle was not skunked. Mostly boring and watery but not offensive in any way and definitely not something I will seek again.
