Bottled (from bierzwerg.de). Golden colour with mediumsized white fluffy head. Aroma is sweet malts, probably also some maize, as well as mild fruityness, cardboard and mild grainy notes. Flavour is quite sweet malts, maize, mild notes of cardboard as well. Finishes a bit bittery.

Bottle that we found at some street market in Genoa, along with the Ecuadorian Club (yaay) Poured a quite pale golden/yellow body with a medium sized thick white head that took its time to go away. Oily beans in the nose, some grain too. Light taste, cardboard and a very light hop background. Blah. Another day another country.

11/10 0.33 l bottle from a street market in Genova. It poured pale yellow body with medium sized head. Malty aroma of some cheap boring pale lager... Flavor is slightly eggy, dusty, predominately malty, but not something that couldn’t be drinked. Some honey and flowery finish. A boring beer, but I won’t complain too much over my first Peruan rate.

12 oz bottle - Cerveza Cristal Beer on front; Premium Cristal Beer on back; 5%. Light golden color with a fine white head. Light aromas of grassy hop and pale malt. A bit thin bodied with fizzy carbonation. Seems to have noble hop, a touch of lemon, and a bit of grain for flavor. Finish is a bit sharp, and not very bitter. Ok pale lager.

Labeled as Cristal, Beer from the Andes. Pours with a large, rocky, white head covering a clear, pale yellow body. Aroma of overipened apples, grass and sweet corn. Sour bread, grass, and watery taste. Refreshing but not good. Fizzy and thin mouthfeel.
