Bottled thanks to Nisse666! Sampled on February 6, 2016 at crazy ticking evening with Thomas.Clear straw yellow color, small white head. Sweet, some DMS, hints of cardboard, some sulhpur scent, also gypsym/dry wall and some tart apples. Tart, a bit harsh taste, some hints of grains. Short grainy aftertaste. Medium to fizzy mouthfeel, low to very low bitterness.

Rated from old notes. Weak with no body and not much alcoholic presence. A decent thirst quencher, but otherwise disappointing.

Many thanks for this beer to kevnic2008. Piwo o lekkim orzezwiajacym smaku, slodowe i lekko rozwodnione co pasuje do klimatu w Peru. Slomkowa i zlocista barwa ze spora iloscia babelkow. Sztucznie nagazowane, ale za to piana przyzwoicie spora sniezna, ale srednio sie utrzymuje nad powierzchnia piwa.

Pours a clear golden color, topped with a small white head. Malty aroma, some grassy notes in there too. Taste starts with a very slight sweetness, followed by nice bitterness. Crisp and refreshing, slightly metallic in theaftertaste. Not that bad actually. Pretty drinkable. Especially ice cold.

Each country seems to have its national bland lager, and this is the one from Peru. It has a stable, snow white head and a deep golden blonde colour, cristal clear as the name suggests. Simple and neutral aroma, consisting of sweetish pale malts and some grassy hops but not much else. Neutral taste, minerals, light sweetish pale malts, very light grassy hops in the finish but no actual bitterness. Very bland but correct, nothing really off-putting.
