Bottle, thx to tarjei. It pours a clear golden body witha a small white head. Malty sweet aroma with something reminiscent of alcohol, but at 4.5% ABV I doubt it’s that. Some fruity notes in the background. Thin in the mouth, and quite fizzy, with fruits, malt and sweetness, as well as a little hoppyness saving the day. Sticky, fruity and surprisingly hoppy finish with a low bitterness, and the same alcohol-like thing found in the aroma. I guess it sort of does the job in a hot Spanish city, but it’s truly forgettable, bland and boring. (080514)

Canned. Pale golden, average head.Aroma of cereals and maize. Light-medium body with clean mouthfeel. If there is any sort of character here it’s lended from maize. Lifeless and industrial.

Canned. Pale golden, rich creamy head. Cereal aroma. Sweet and light bodied with a suprising dash of smoke. Otherwise it’s stays neutral, dull and featureless. Finishes slightly salty with a sigh.

Can in brazilian coloures. Tastes very sharp and sweet. More like fanta than like beer. Really not good.

The can looks good, the beer in the glass also, much fast disappearing foam. Tastes very spicy, the finish somehow "lumpish". Not really a good beer.

The can looks good, the beer in the glass also. Very much foam. Starts very vapid, becomes washier with every gulp. An average beer.

The can looks good. The beer in the glass also, but very fast disappearing foam. Tastes very vapid with an artificial dry moment. Not a good beer.

The bottle looks not good, the beer in the glass neither. Not as sourish as other spanish beer, but not a good one. Too washy.
