Sep 4, 2006 Brought back from Buenos Aires last spring. Pours with a nice foamy head and a bit of lace that just can’t quite stick around. Malty aroma with some definite honey characteristics. Color is a brownish amber. Much more honey apparent in the flavor, maybe a bit overstated? Don’t really pick up on the alcohol. Great body! Good effort by the folks there. Bravo, folks! Salud!

May 22, 2006 Updated: Nov 2, 2006Pours a hazy red/copper color with a small white head that diminishes slowly and leaves a small but pretty lacing.
Aroma is very hoppy for a South American brew, with floral and fruity notes like roses, grapefruits, pine, herbs and a small tart cherry-like touch.
Strong sweet and fruity flavor with hints of berries, apples and nutty traces. Very amaretto like with initial sweetness and a bitter aftertaste of more nuts.
Thick oily texture, no carbonation bothering. Soft, delicious finish. Alcohol barely noticeable. It has a warming effect. This is masterfully crafted and the proof that Argentina can brew some really good stuff..
Many thanks to <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/View-User-5855.htm> Lubiere for bringing this one from the other side of the Andes

Sep 12, 2006 Relatively few head, white. Amber color, a bit clowdy.
Frutal sweet aromas. Sweet taste, in agreement with the aroma.
Afteraste sweet too, smoother. Citric touches, Syrup texture.
The best of this beer is its excellent aroma, followed by its smell.
Their smell gets betters remarkably when temperature increases a bit. Very good taste and aftertaste. Definitively bad indicated temperature to drink it. 4º it’s not enough to appreciate the best of this syrup.
