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.

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

Can. Pour is a light straw color with a fizzy head and aromas of bread dough. Flavor is adjunct crap beer. Not much redeeming about this one and I’m usually pretty easy going on national beers I have with my feet in the sand. This one is a stinker.

A golden lager with a thick receding white head. In aroma, an unpleasant mix of corn adjunct and light sulfur, not very nice. In mouth, a light sweet corn malt with light grassy hops, boring and lacking. Bottle from Auto Mercado, San Jose.

Found inside a fridge while investigating a random corner bar in Punteranus, Costa Rica on 29th March 2014. It was drier than it’s stable mates I also tried (Imperial and Silver) and I thought a better thirst quencher with a bit of style to it’s make up. Crisp, bright and clean with a hop bitterness the others failed to have: very little aroma though.
