I had a few of these beers from the can while in Rio de Janeiro. The beer had a light gold color with a small white bubbly head that quickly dissipated. The aroma had some grainy hops and a touch of malt, with corn and adjuncts. Its taste was lightly bitter and grainy with a slight touch of malt. The mouthfeel was light and it had low carbonation; a fairly unexciting, bland beer.

Can: Barley malt aroma. Clear yellow, medium head. Tangy lemon flavor. A little cardboard present. Bleh.

Das Bier schmeckt süß nach Mais, ansonsten überaus wässrig. Ein wenig Hopfen ist im Mittelteil zwar zu erkennen, dieser kann das Bier allerdings nicht mehr retten. Viel, viel, viel zu wässrig. Test vom 29.7.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 8,5,10,4,6,5 - 5,95

Can. Yellow body with a tall, foamy white head. Aroma is grassy hops, sweet malt, corn syrup, dog biscuits and grains. Taste is corn syrup, cereal grains, sweet malt, light grass and a hint of honey. Body is light and the carbonation is foamy but soft. Ends with more cereal grains, a touch of lemon and honey, sweet malt and corn syrup.

Lata comprada en el Corte Inglés, Lisboa. Tomada en el VIP Hotel, el la misma ciudad. Clear thin golden with a medium mostly diminishing white bubbly head. Fair mouthfeel. Mild grainy grassy flavour with a light to medium bitterness for a short while. Maybe if it was all I had under a burning hot sun then I would enjoy a bit more.

Asked a waitress in a Mexican restaurant in Antwerp whether there was anything she could recommend... this was it... meh.

Pale yellow colour. A fast disappearing bubbly head. Lack of any kind of aroma. Quite flat and tasteless with a light body. Skip it unless you’re dying of thirst on a hot Brazilian beach.

The staple brazilian beach beer. Flavored water, not an offensive taste, but not good either. On the plus side you can have about 100 and not even catch a buzz.
