12oz bottle I picked up in Lima pours a dark, muddy orange with some lacing, white head. Nose is heavy on the malt and orange peel, pine too, some raisin, potpourri. Flavor is sticky with chestnut honey, some brown sugar, malt, toffee, bitter orange peel, herbs, sticky spruce. Full bodied, bitter and even astringent on the finish.

12oz bottle I brought back from Lima is a clear gold with some tight white head. Nose has some grass, straw, a little couch, some coriander (not in a good way). Flavor has white pepper, potpourri, light corn, straw. Finishes spritzy. Could be an old bottle, could just be poorly done.

Sierra Andina Pachacutec Imperial Ale 10.5% I got this beer from my buddy Beercation. Brewed in honor of an Inca Emperor, it is the strongest beer from Peru and Ratebeer classes it as an American Strong Beer. I'm kind of surprised it's from Huaraz a mountain town from which I went hiking and mountain biking in the Andes a decade ago. An odd brown color, it has a dense beige head that reminds me of a root beer. Malty sweet plum and cocoa powder aroma. It has velvety mouthfeel but a somewhat thin finish with some boozy heat. The taste is sweet, plum, raisins, a sharp almost burnt hardtack and cocoa nibs. It paired well with chocolate ice cream. It's not a truly complex beer but is definitely better than I expected Peru was currently brewing. Thanks for the hook up! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
