On tap at La Espuma de los D��as, pours A clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out vermouth, some spices, and some earthiness. Flavour is full of vermouth notes, some spiciness, toasted malt, and some earthiness. That vermouth is really solid in this. Very good.

On tap at Desarmadero, pours a deep dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma brings out toasted malt and dry cocoa — pretty light. Flavour has notes of cola, toasted malt and a hint of cocoa. A bit too weak and watery for me but it's alright.

473mL can at Bodega de Cervezas, pours a clear pale golden with a medium white head. Aroma is legit, with crisp crackery malt, spicy hops, and some straw. Flavour has a nice spicy hop character, with grassiness, herbal notes and straw. A bit crunchy and lacking in bitterness, but has the right notes and is well-constructed. Solid.
