This beer is of the Dortmunder variety. Its high proportion of malts and fine-quality hops, as well as its golden color and appetizing head, make Bavaria Gold a beer of European type and character. The sensory balance of freshness, body and bitterness, together with a jealously guarded production process, make Bavaria Gold a premium-quality beer that has been in production since the 1930s.

Tastes a little better than the Bavaria dark, actually. Another boring lager from Costa Rica. Not the worst, not the best.

Can from Costa Rica. [Shared by Arve. Thanks!] Pours pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma is pretty light, mainly sweet malt. Sweet and watery with a hint of bitterness in the finish.

Can from Sandy O. Pours pale gold with a fizzy white head. Aroma is just bready. Flavor is bready with a little bit of noble hop to spin it along. A hint of citrus in the finish. Probably just the thing to wash down food.

Very hazy deep straw with minimal white head. Flavor is all cereal grain with a harsh bite. Not good.

Pale golden with a small white head. Aroma of grain, hay and apple peel. Sweetish malty and grainy flavour. Boring but at least clean

Bottle: Poured a light yellow color pils with a small bubbly head with minimal retention and not much lacing. Aroma of light corn notes and balanced residual sugars is OK. Taste is quite bland with light adjunct notes and a dry aftertaste. Refreshing while drunk under the hot Costa Rican sun but really quite bland overall.

Appearance: A nice clear golden with a small white head, lots of carbonation in the glass

This is a decent pilsner. Clean, crisp and refreshing

From the bottle. Light grain and toast aromas. Crisp and dry with upfront grass and a lasting dry lager finish.

350 ml can drank aboard a Catamaran tour. Pour is clear golden with a one inch white head. The head is very foamy, and deposits decent lace is it retreats (clear plastic cup, mind you). Aroma of malt, spicy earthiness and a kiss of hops. This was actually the first beer I had in Costa Rica where I could smell hops. That’s good, I guess, since this was not a real pleasant hop aroma. Taste is malty, sweet chemical, grainy and a bitterness near the finish. Palate is thin with a long finish this is not terribly pleasant.
