Description
Our story originates from the dreams of a German immigrant and his passion for beer. Otto Bemberg, who arrived in our country in 1852, founded the Cervecería Argentina in the city of Quilmes in 1888. After two years, on October 31, 1890, the first chopp was served and from there the iconic beer began to be sold under the Quilmes brand, in honor of the old indigenous name of the town, where this dream materialized. These would be just the first steps of a project that, over time, would become one of the main companies in Argentina. During the years to come, the company grew exponentially, in 1910 it reached 100% beer production.

In 2002 we sealed the strategic association with AmBev and in 2006 we finalized the transfer of our majority shareholding package. We are currently part of AB-InBev, the world's leading brewing company, based in Leuven, Belgium, with a portfolio of more than 200 brands.

Moderately sweet, a little sugary, low bitterness, pale grains, cereal. Light bodied with average carbonation. Sweet finish with notes of white bread, straw, cereal. A fine, drinkable pale lager.

Pours pale light gold from the bottle. The head is slight, fizzy, and rapidly dissipates. Aroma is sour and musty but, thankfully, not all too strong. Taste is sweet corn and sour malt. Aftertaste is lightly sour sweet. Light bodied but not at all watery. A credible attempt but with flaws, and generally speaking there is not much going on here.

5.8/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 7 Flavor 5 Texture 6 Overall 6
Bottiglia @ Expo 2015, Milano. L’intensità olfattiva è elevata ed elegante. La persistenza olfattiva è discreta. Il gusto al naso ricorda pane, malto e frumento. Il cappello di schiuma ha scarsa tenuta, con bollicine medie. La frizzantezza ha bollicine fini con poca carbonazione, praticamente piatta. Il liquido risulta limpido. Il colore è giallo dorato. Il corpo è snello. La struttura è sottile. Il dolce è medio, l’amaro è percettibile, l’acido è leggero e l’umami è accennato. L’intensità gustativa è normale e la persistenza gustativa è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono di facile beva. Il finale è semplice, dissetante e pressappoco brusco. Il retrogusto è sfuggente.

12.11.2015, 0,34l bottle @ Fuego:
Tiny shortlasting head, very light straw colored. Aroma is kind of neutral, cereal, hay, minerals, wet grain, paper. Taste is slightly dry grainy, cereal, hay, grain, minerals, weeds, paper. Little bitterness, dry watery mouthfeel. Crap!
