This beer has a somewhat more noticeable bitterness, and its mixture of malts and rice makes it rather dry. With a refreshing feeling, balanced bouquet and full body, it works very well as an accompaniment to food. Pilsen has been on the national beer market since 1888.

Bottle pours out pale straw topped with a white head. Nose is corn grain grass. Taste is more of the corn grass happy this one was ice cold.

I picked up a 12 oz bottle of Pilsen today from a roadside restaurant outside Puntarenas. The bottle cap lifted, I pour into a glass provided on our ship in the room. A clear, yellow liquid with a steady top of quite fine, solidly white bubbles. It has your basic beer smell, all right by me. The taste is straw, grain, metal and water. Not a bad beer, somewhere in the middle against its peers perhaps.

Sample thanks to Grumbo, cheers Graham! Golden colour, bubbly foamy white head and aroma of malt, corn grain, fruity, yeasty. Taste is sweetish, grainy, fruity, with some grassy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry bitter finish. OK

Bottle. Golden beer with an off-white head. Malt aroma. Butter and malt flavor with light mineral notes. Medium bodied. Buttery malt and light mineral notes linger.

Drank straight from the bottle in downtown Limon, Costa Rica. Pretty typical Euro-lager flavor. Not too skunky though. Okay.
