A ‘lager’ type beer, produced from the best malts and hops of cheque origin, fermented and matured at low temperatures. The specific conditions and the rigorous fabrication control give it particular/distinct characteristics such as a pale golden colour, a clean flavour, smooth and aromatic, a light body and a pleasant aroma of hop blossom. Its qualities (light, refreshing and pleasant) make it refreshingly ideal, quenching your thirst, enjoy drinking, making a great accompaniment for all sorts of dishes such as fish and shellfish, meat, poultry, pasta amongst others.

Bottled. A golden beer with a lazing off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty combined with notes of traw. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of metal and straw as well as light notes of brewmash.

Bottled, draught and canned. Pale golden colour, mediumsized to small white head, and something between foamy and bubbly. Aroma of malts and hops. Flavour sweetish malty and hops kicking in in the finish. A bit watery to the palate. Both aroma and flavour has hints of unclean tap in the draught version, but later when testing bottled and canned, the same skunkyness is also in those.

Bottle BB Sept 06 Pale yellow lage with nothing particularly memorable I can recall, having just been to Lisbon for the weekend I was hoping to be pleasantly suprised by one or two of the local beers (OK this was Madeiran, but it was easy enough to pick up in Lisbon) the only remarkable thing about this beer was just how bland it was.

(Bottle 33 cl) Golden, limited head. A straight, flawless lager. Reminds me a lot of a typical Danish standard pilsener although a bit stronger in alcohol and body. Thanks to Katja K. for bringing me this from Madeira. 100105

New rating and points for the actual normal Cerveja. Below is indeed for the Boas Festas, X-mas ale, special edition Very small whitish head over clear deep-golden beer. Bit liqueurish-toasted nose, obviously sweet. Faint spices & baking powder, dough. Again faintly toasted, honey. Somewhat oxydized taste, despite relatively recent. Sweet main taste, slowly fading. Malt dominates. Light body, falling dead. Sweet, unimportant lager. (Classified this with Ohmper’s because of ABV and other specs, but full name is Boas Festas Coral, which smacks of X-mas beer. Sample a bit aged, no BBd) Gold colour, clear. slight white head. Grainy, sweetish nose, slight oxidation. Dry bitterish start with a very malty mouth, and again some hoppy bitterness on the palate. Clean, but very light mouthfeel. Long sweet malty aftertaste. Better than average lager, did not suffer from ageing. Was: 5/4/5/2/10 total: 2.6
