Sambadoro

Hop malt aroma. Clear yellow colour with poor head and lacing. Bitter hop malt flavour. I guess this is why Brazil is not known for their beer.

Bottle. Pours a slightly murky yellowish hazy white. Some sediment. In a pale lager? There is no aroma. Flavor is corn and this bizarre smooth Cool Whip aftertaste. Easy to drink if you can stand that.

No head at all and a cloudy yellow haze colour. Vastly better to other cheap Sth American beers I’ve tried recently. A little bit of citrus on an otherwise corn fired cheap beer.

Sambadoro has been layen around awhile before I opened it. Let’s take a trip to Uberlandia, Brazil. 12oz twist off brown bottle. Bottle has a busty Aztec on the front with a blue busten-halter. I think her name is Paulista! Big feather hat and don’t think she has hair. Smell’s a little strong and sweet, I get the impression this is high alky content. I’m not sure if the aroma is wheat like or metallic. The look of this beer is interesting. When you pour it, there is no head or foam on top. There is a see thru mini skirt around the inside edge of the glass formed by a few bubbles. The look of this beer is hazy light beige yellow. Almost like a wheat beer but I don’t see any sign of sludge on the bottom of the bottle. After I taste this, I notice the initial flavor caused me to think bitter and coarse. But that initial shock is buffered by a slide to gracefulness. I was pleasantly surprised to find this pretty smooth. Taste comes on medium strong then fades to a gentle petting of the taste buds. Has a nice feel with the carbonation, medium low but not flat. Citrusy hints of lemons. No bitterness, or barely any perceivable, on the finish. Slight white pepper gracefulness. It is gentle and friendly. Repeatable and enjoyable. One of my better tasting pale yellow lagers.

Bottle. Almost a transparent color with no head and a bunch of fizzy carbonation. Aroma is more complex than most cheap beers. A bit of spice makes it interesting. Flavor has a touch of spicy pepper, but is nothing too interesting. That said, sweet grain dominates and nothing here is worth getting excited about.
