I mean, it was bad, but not offensive. Pale pee in color, thin fizzy head. Thin, boring and very macro in flavor. This is probably what philippinos tailgate with.

12 oz single from Trader Joe’s: Pale gold color wirh a small, fading white head. Flavor starts lightly sweet with a little grainess and a soft dry bitterness in the finish. Light body is crisp with lively carbonation.

Drink it with a lime. Drink all imported beers with spanish names in clear bottles with limes. Makes me smile. A light beer with 5% alcohol. I think it is redonkulously good. Perhaps redoubledonkulously good. If you ranked all light beers on 6-pack vibes, this can’t possibly be beat. Twelve will make you sputter Tagalong slurs at your grandma.

Pours a pale straw yellow with a small, short lived, fizzy white head. Plenty of bubbles. Aroma of hay, adjuncts, a touch of skunk (clear bottle) and a bit of DMS. Taste is about the same. Bubbly and rough going down.

Golden color, virtually no flavor. They were giving them away by the hundreds at a trade show party so it was my favorite beer. Free beer.

Great? No. It’s a light lager in a clear bottle. But honestly, it’s quite refreshing on a warm Philippine evening. Reminded me a bit of Corona, though better. Wouldn’t touch this stuff outside the country given the clear bottle an all.
