Old rating from March 2019 (which was 2nd time I'd had this after having a 330ml bottle at home in 2010) - this time I was in a Argentinian restaurant in Bermondsey, London. Pours amber with a white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of citrus, lemon & sweet malt. Medium body. Light bitter finish. Decent Macro lager, more than drinkable if nothing else available.

Curious to try this one after seeing the sponsoring in River Plate jersey for ages. Pretty forgettable with a cereal taste and a thin body.

Somewhere it is written that every country must have a weak pale lager/int’l pilsner. This is Argentina’s.

Bottle. This one is terrible. Gold I’m color with hardly any head. Both the aroma and taste had over welmng elements of corn. Just not good.

0.33 l bottle. Pale golden color, with no head, looks like apple juice. Watery sweetness in taste with hints of hops maybe? Lively carbonated, very light bodied.

Drinking this beer, at the Argentinian on the Spanish way, Milonga's restaurant. An industrial lager that it was for me drinkable, expecting something worst, malty, rather dry, mineral, bready, watery, extract of hop, it was ok with a good meat. 17.01.23

Bottle from Hopt. Skunky adjunct-laden aroma with corn, light grain, cardboard and dishwater. Sweetish flavour with a light bitterness. Body is light. Such a foul aroma, terrible Lager, should be outlawed under the Biological Weapons Convention.

330ml bottle and my first Argentina rate. Gold pour with thin, white head. Aroma is sweet malts with a hint of lemon from minimal hops. Taste is the same, boring but there are no real off notes here and its not watery. Its a fine basic lager.
