Commercial Description:
First brewed in 1938.
It is a light alcohol drink with not too strong bitterness but rather soft taste; therefore, it's easy to drink it up.

Bottle from the corner bodega, helluva lot better than the American macros otherwise available. Not a bad brew if you just need some cheap beer. Some "sour" notes as mentioned before, thin and pretty watery, while maintaining decent beer flavor. Great for summer cool-down chugging as it’s low alcohol.

Give a white kid some dread locks and a red strip and you’ve got this low brow lager that is enjoyed by the mass poser crowd...nobody in the Carribean drinks it...drinkable, decent.

Pours gold into a shaker. Bright white head quickly recedes to hug rim. Sour malt aromas. Crisp with sour fruits from front to back.

The best beer for drinking to either get pissed on or to throw up on. Vulgar taste - worse than Stella Artois in my opinion - annoyingly this is getting more and more popular.

From a 24oz bottle. In most ways your typical lager, but it does have at least a little character. A far superior choice than most American macros (Bud, Miller etc).

Typical. Long gone are the days when I could drink a beer of this caliber and still accept myself as a decent human being. Slightly darker character than American Pilsners but as the thing warmed up it got clammy, sour, and stale tasting. Oh well.

Not a very good beer to may taste. Maybe I’ll try it again someday, but from what I remember even a little bottle was difficult to finish. not as bad as some, far from good.
