12oz bonus from daknole. thanks dude. Pours golden with an off white head. Nose is alright. Taste is sweet and light and easy to forget. Glad to try, doubt I’ll buy unless i’m in buenos aires.

Basically servicable. A common world-wide lilght lager with heavy usage of corn and/or rice. Poured with a clear yellow color; Soap bubbly head and lots of large bubbled lace. The aroma is beery with neutral sweetness and bare hint of hops. Flavor’s like the aroma. Seems sweeter than about five years ago. Mouth is watery and a bit sharp that quickly fades. Finish is corn sweetner flavored with a bit of macro lager. This is from a can I got at the nearby Carrefour Supermercado in Recoleta, Buenos Aires, Argentina at my apartment here in Recoleta. I know that I reviewed this here years ago and it’s gone. Eh?

330 cm3 bottle via Josh (thanks buddy!), served at cellar temperature in a tulip glass.

App.: Deep golden with lots of big dark yeast flakes, no head to speak of. Aroma: Strong nuttiness, like a sherry, indicating lots of oxidation, little else. Palate: Medium body, some effervescence and a touch of astringency. Flav.: Like the nose, there is plenty of hazelnut oxidation and dust; dry with no bitterness.

This beer is well past its prime, if it had a prime. Thanks anyway Josh, I appreciate the thought.

A weak piss lager. The apparent michelob of Argentina. Has a very pale color, flavor, and effect. I’m glad I got this as a single. Further elaboration on this beer would be unnecessary. Overall, poor+.

Yeah I am really loving these cheap South American lagers. As you would expect, this one pours a light yellow with a white head. Aroma is all corn. Flavor is all grainy corn. Stank.

12 oz bottle. Poured a clear yellow color with a thin white head that turned quickly to a layer of scum. The aroma was corn. The flavor was grainy with a grassy finish.
