(Bottle 33 cl) Golden, practically no head whatsoever - and no hops for that matter. Extremely dry and quenching though. A bit unusual but not unpleasant. 100305

(Bottle 33 cl) Golden lager, slightly creamy head. Very fresh smell, oddly it reminds me of a German "Hefe-Weizen", has the same fruity-/citric notes although I belive there’s no wheat in this. Quite some hop-bite in the palate. Portugal’s best known brand? 240603

Pale yellow, small white head.Slightly skunked hoppy aroma. Watery thin palate. Not much malts and just hint of hops in the aftertaste. A bit like "light beer".

Draught @ Coimbra, Portugal
Pale yellow with decent creamy white head. Mild nose has lemon and hops. Taste is sweetish, fruity and malty. Slightly harsh aftertaste. One-dimensional but drinkable.

Can. Drove over four hours to get to Portugal and only found three beers - this was the best one. Sweet toffee aroma. Light tan with small collapsing head. Moderate carbonation and sweet light malt flavor and slight hops bitterness. Rather different - not totally unlike an American light beer but with less malt.

A dark brown almost opaque beer with a light brown disappearing head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel and roasted bread. The flavor is also sweet with notes of caramel, roasted bread, and hops. In the end it turns slightly smoked.

Annoying metallic hop aroma. Golden, well carbonated,lacing creamy head. Malt base, slightly corny, light hops. medium body. Somewhat okish pemium lager - nice tulip glass though.
