Drinking this beer in one trip in Chile with my wife, in 2007, tasting it in Iquique, nothing special with this beer, an industrial lager, this one was acceptable for us.

20/12/2018. Can from the store formally known as Pipiolo and now called liquidos.cl. Pours golden with a foamy just off-white head. Aroma of grain, grass, citrus, malt and straw. Medium sweetness with light to moderate bitterness. Moderate body, oily watery texture, average carbonation. Not the worst beer to quench the thirst on a hot day in Santiago.

Gushing at 4000m. Clear golden with enormous white head. Aroma is sweet green grains straw grandmothers jacket. Taste is very sweet green grains and nothing much else. Hoppy balls on the tongue. Chile? Check!

From old tasting notes. Pale yellow gold color. Faint grainy malt aroma. Light grain malt flavor. Highly carbonated on tongue. Light dry hop finish. Drinkable, though lacking in flavor and body.

Draft, the thing that struck me about getting this beer is that I popped into a fast food place (Domino) in Santiago de Chile and got the lunch combo... my choice of drinks included beer at no extra fee. It was treated like a soft drink! So of course I had to choose it. Anyways, your standard macro lager deep gold color, fizzy white head that quickly disappeared leaving no lacing behind. The aroma was mostly malts & a sugary sweetness. Taste was sweet, grainy malts, syrupy mouthfeel. Yep pretty much like drinking a soda.
