(Bottle 35 cl) "La preferida de Cuba" - Cuba’s preferred, and you do see Cristal just about everywhere on the tropical island. Now it’s even exported round the world - even to Denmark. One worders what all the fuss is about. This is a standard light Caribbean lager, ok head, a bit of malt sweetness and a very limited bitterness. On tap this is much fresher and lively. Works OK on a hot day in Cuba (most days are....) but anywhere else....forget it. 010405

Tap: Poured a golden color beer with a medium foamy head that disappeared a bit too quickly. Aroma is quite weak with only some malt being noticeable. Taste is quite sweet withy slight watery finish. Overall, this is better then most Caribean lager out there.

Blond color; small head, big bubbles. Bad skunky aroma. Simple-to-bad taste, a bit sweet; yeast and bread. Watery final. Oh my God…

A very light yellow beer with almost no head. It has no aroma at all and not much flavor either - I thought of it as watery. It ends of on a slightly bitter note.
