Thanks to tderoeck! Can sampled @ LIBF 2017. Very pale golden. Nose is stinky vegetable, cooked, massively cooked vegetable, paper,... Taste is vegetable, mineral, cold vegetable, spoiled, far too cooked vegetable, paper,... Really poor & unpleasant,... Cooked vegetable body. Yikes.

Can share @ LIBF’17, thanks to Tderoeck for the share. Dorée, col blanc. Arôme au nez moyen typique des lagers basiques, douceur presque de maïs se ressent, grains en dominance et houblonné à la ramasse. Palais est malté, pils, maïs, douceur latente et amertume minimaliste.

Country ticking? Why yes and thank you Brian.
Bottle to lager glass, the appearance was a soft yellow color with a fast rising carbonation hitting a quickly dissipating finger’s worth of foamy to fizzy white head. No lace.
The aroma had some sweet corn and light bready malts. Super light grassy to floral hops.
The flavor was sweet along with the aftertaste and finish, slightly sticky yet acceptable.
The feel was light bodied with a super big sessionability about it. Carbonation seemed fine. ABV seemed fine.
Overall, though there’s not much here, honestly, it does the trick on a hot day, can’t go wrong with that.

Many thanks for this beer to CH-303. Piwo ma nawet fajna piane jak na egzotycznego lagera jest zastanawiajaco dlugo trwala, barwa slomkowa spore nagazowanie, w zasadzie to tu najbardziej przeszkadzalo. W smaku lekko wytrawne, lekkie ale blizej mu do pilsnera niz do lagera. Nie przypominalo tu tych kiepskich kukurydzianych slodow itp. Lekkie zaskoczenie choc szalu oczywiscie nie ma to tylko lagerek.

Bottle. Practically aromaless and flavourless. It is hard to say what one should even rate here. Coloured water, slightly sweetish.

Persönliches Bierland Nr. 90 Dass man in Europa unter Imperial-Bieren, solche mit intensiverem Geschmack versteht (Imperial Ale, Imperial Stout...), ist an den Amigos aus Mittelamerika wohl verbeigegangen. Wie erwartet ein eher fades Strandbier mit einem komischen süßlichen Geschmack, der offenbar von zu viel Reis im Sud stammt. Ein nettes Mitbringsel aus dem Urlaub, aber kein Biergenuss.

Bottle@San Jose. Golden beer with a reasonable head. The aroma is sugary and malty, and the flavour is malty with yeastiness and dryness. Overall a poor pale lager. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
