Description
The Compañía Cervecera de Canarias (CCC), based in Santa Cruz de Tenerife , was founded in 1939, starting to make a beer that would be called Dorada. In 1994 it merged with the Canary Industrial Society (SICAL) of Gran Canaria, which was the old La Tropical brewery founded in 1924. Currently, Compañía Cervecera de Canarias has more than 300 Canarian entrepreneurs among its shareholders and is part of the AB InBev International Group.

330 ml can, at Tenerife. Pale yellow colour with big bubbles, and a moderate and short-lived coarse head. The usual n/a beer aroma of unhopped wort, grain, maize and over-cooked vegetables. The flavour has some malts and is fairly sweet, a hint of hops in the finish. Not good, but not the worst n/a beer I’ve had.

Small to medium, dense, just foff-white head, not very longlasting over metallic golden beer. Lightly malty and a bit soapy nose. Some (even slightly astringent) bitterness, superimposed on mildly sweet, lame-ish malts. Rather well-carbonated feel, despite dead-looking. Metallic bitterish finish. Ho-hum fizzy international lager, but no doubt not the worst by far. Thanks for bringing, Dean!

0.33 l can that a friend brought from Tenerife, thanks Matej! It poured deep golden body with small head. Weak aroma, only a little bit sharp alcoholic. Slightly bitter flavor, shows some low quality hops, alcoholic as well. Thinner to medium bodied with bitterish herbal finish. Didn’t dislike it as much as Doggythedog did, but this is worse, boring pale lager anyway!

Canned courtesy of and shared with heavy whose friend got it somewhere on the Canaries I guess. Poured a yellow-golden body with a small white head that disappeared fast despite the lively carbonation. The nose is immediately a huge letdown, an ugly mess of alcohol (?!) and vegetables. The taste is different but not far off in terms of quality. Empty (but not watery), slightly sticky and malty with some crude bitterness that I hope comes from some bad hop and not some remnants of alcohol. Seriously, this tastes like it has 1-2% more alcohol. Highly unimpressive I’m afraid.

Can. A clear, almost golden beer with a small, white head. Sweet, malty and fruity aroma. The flavor is mostly malty, with fruits and sweetness as well. Short finish. Medium body. A decent one, lacking on bitterness and for a Spanish lager, lacking on quenching qualities. 100409

330 ml can. Golden body with a diminishing white head. Aroma has some sweet malt and a fair deal of metal. Flavor is skunky malt, corn and a unpleasant harsh bitterness. Lots of metal flavor in the finish.

Draught in bars at Hotel Orquedia, Bahia Feliz. Pours clear and pale yellow with a very short lasting head. Hint of vegitables in the aroma. Very light, drinkable and thirst quenching.

330 ml can. Golden body with a collapsing white head. Not much aroma here, some fruity grain. Flavor is a bit fruity with a hint of acid and metal. Thin and watery body, short finish, no hops . Not much of a beer.

Small white head. Pale yellow body. No discernible aroma. Dryish papery empty taste with traces of alcohol. Mid-bodied. Dusty mouthfeel. Dry papery aftertaste. Incredibly bland. Don’t think I’ve ever had a beer with this little taste before. (0.33l can, shared by gr0ve.)
