Quilmes Cristal

Brewed by Cerveceria Malteria Quilmes SAICAY (InBev)
Style: Pale Lager
Buenos Aires, Argentina

Bottle. Pours crystal clear straw golden coloured with a small lacing egg white head. Aromas of grain, corn, silage and mild spice. Thin and weak flavour with notes of citrus, malt and grass.

Bottle, at Via Via Café in Copan Ruinas, Honduras :). Golden beer, bubbles and medium white head that lasts. The aroma is special: grainy, malty, but also a bit spicy and some notes of grass, or vegetables. The taste is also nice: it starts like a pale lager like I drunk already several ones, with a grainy and malty taste, but after a while the special aftertaste of vegetables, spices and grass comes nicely into your mouth. A very special beer, the most special I drunk on the Maya-route, and why not the best? And that for an Argentinian beer from Inbev (or Anbev, as you wish).

0,33 l bottle. Pours pale, with a big creamy white head. This one has lost its aroma, and so are the taste, gone.

330ml bottle picked up at an Oddbins store in Earls Court. Fast vanishing, white head over a late straw coloured body. Aroma of boiled vegetables. Rare off-taste of corn and sour grass. Flat and vapid (hotel room, London 01.08.2009).

330ml bottle.Clear golden colour with medium off-white head.Aroma is malty and grainy with thin watery body,slight hoppy with soft finish.

Grain and corn. Pale, no head, watery. An American macro transplanted into Argentina. If I were in Argentina, I would probably enjoy this. But I’m not. So it’s not good.

Pale yellow in color with a small white head. Aroma is of light skunk, grain, and corn. Taste is corn flakes and grain.

Pale yellow with a medium head, aroma is yeasty with some urine acid ,corn and notes of grain, flavor is totally dirty and quite undrinkable, mashrooms, boiled herbs, not my beer I guess.
