pours light yellow with a thin white head. Aroma is pale grains, crackers and corn. Flavor is malt liquor like with lots of sweet corn and pale malts, little to no hop character and a little sour citrus in the finish.

Can from Sandy O. "La Cerveza Rubia". 5.1% Pours gold with a transient white head. It smells bready and herby. Med body. It is bready, and it’s sort of smooth herb/veg. Definitely on the dry side. But hop flavor?

Can from Sandy O. Pours pale gold with a fizzy white head. Aroma is just bready. Flavor is bready with a little bit of noble hop to spin it along. A hint of citrus in the finish. Probably just the thing to wash down food.

Deeper yellow with minimal white head. Lots of grainy cereal. This was very drinkable and my second favourite in Costa Rica after Imperial.

No aroma on this beer with is surprising for the dark malts. Very thin mouthfeel and again the dark malt does not factor in the flavor.

The worst beer i had during my trip to Costa Rica. Pale straw color, with a harsh, biting taste. To top it off, when i ordered a different beer for the next glass, the waiter accidentially served me this a second time.
