Travelling since years in Peru, I could say that this brewery is not good. The taste is watery, few malt, some corn, few hop, the problem is that you don't have another choice than this one or the callao pilsen, if you go to a popular place.

Bottle pour from Total Wine & More, Burlington. Clear gold with beautiful sparkle, thin head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma is sweet corn, malt, vague fruit. Taste is grain, corn, bittering hops. Smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. I've had a lot of beers worse than this one.

Gold pour. Thin foam around the rim. Lots of lace. In glass. Nice malty flavor. Nutty and delicious. Light carbonation and light bodied. Nutty palate.
