Fulkrum78 (164), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Sep 26, 2004 Good beer to drink while hanging out and trying new beers. Nothing special but nothing horrible either. frankenkitty (1798), Oak Lawn, Illinois, USA Aug 5, 2005 Rating for Palma Louca Wild Palm Lager (Bottle code: VHL 04/11/04, 052656LOTE5)
Wow. Looks like I’m going Against The Grain on this one. I bought this on the cheap and was totally expecting a skunk. Surprisingly, upon opening I got aromas of honey, all honey... with light herbs and clove under. So, now I’m afraid to sip this average-looking, white over golden beer. But there’s more honey along with a moderate bittersweetness in the flavor. Thoroughly impressive, with a seltzery-fizz on the tongue for a quick and crisp fadeaway.

KAggie97 (1921), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA Jan 11, 2008 Bottle at Brazzazz, Chicago. Maybe it was the meat intoxication speaking. Maybe it was the snowfall that started early that morning and didn’t let up until nightfall. Whatever it was, I was impressed with this beer. Poured a beautiful deep yellow, albeit lifeless. Aroma was not what I expected; it was very tropical, with hints of banana and grassy carrot. Flavor was tingly sweety corn and grain. Buttery mouthfeel that was another unusual component. Not bad; very refreshing. RichardGretton (2682), Leicestershire, England May 1, 2005 Bottled. Quite stagnant looking lager but with a good white head. The aroma is light and crisp, and the flavour is lightly bitter, crisp with a watery finish. Overall the beer is OK served cool. acrdz (4389), Boulder, Colorado, USA Oct 24, 2005 I had this at a Brazilian restaurant in downtown Albuquerque. I can say that it was certainly fresh and they kept it well, because it had a semi-sweet aroma of wheat, grains, lemons and yeast. Very fresh smelling and tasting, and while it wasn’t a complicated beer, it had very few defects. I enjoyed it, and the only thing I can say I didn’t like too much was how fizzy and soda-like it was on my palate.
