Pale blond color. Light malt aroma. Ordinary Lager, but at least one of the few balanced ones in Brazil, with a reasonable bitterness.

Sambadoro has been layen around awhile before I opened it. Let’s take a trip to Uberlandia, Brazil. 12oz twist off brown bottle. Bottle has a busty Aztec on the front with a blue busten-halter. I think her name is Paulista! Big feather hat and don’t think she has hair. Smell’s a little strong and sweet, I get the impression this is high alky content. I’m not sure if the aroma is wheat like or metallic. The look of this beer is interesting. When you pour it, there is no head or foam on top. There is a see thru mini skirt around the inside edge of the glass formed by a few bubbles. The look of this beer is hazy light beige yellow. Almost like a wheat beer but I don’t see any sign of sludge on the bottom of the bottle. After I taste this, I notice the initial flavor caused me to think bitter and coarse. But that initial shock is buffered by a slide to gracefulness. I was pleasantly surprised to find this pretty smooth. Taste comes on medium strong then fades to a gentle petting of the taste buds. Has a nice feel with the carbonation, medium low but not flat. Citrusy hints of lemons. No bitterness, or barely any perceivable, on the finish. Slight white pepper gracefulness. It is gentle and friendly. Repeatable and enjoyable. One of my better tasting pale yellow lagers.

Bottle. Almost a transparent color with no head and a bunch of fizzy carbonation. Aroma is more complex than most cheap beers. A bit of spice makes it interesting. Flavor has a touch of spicy pepper, but is nothing too interesting. That said, sweet grain dominates and nothing here is worth getting excited about.

(Bottle 33 cl) Clear, pale pilsener golden with a small, white head. Sweet aroma of corn. Medium body, very sweet from malts and brewing cereal and an edge of cardboard. Very, very subdued bitterness. Not unpleasant as such but incredibly bland. 030307

Bottled. Pale yellow colout, not much head. Maizeish hoppy aroma with papery hints. Flavour is harsh hayish malts and hops with some maizeish hints. Not a very pleasant mix, but atleast it gives me a new country.

Gold color with bright white head. Aroma comes off as sharp hops with edges of metal and hints of malt sweetness. The flavor is obviously mild considering the style. The level of carbonation, the light hoppiness and mild malt sweetness go well together here. It does eventually seem to be a bit too much on the sweet side for me. I really don’t like how the label misled me to believe it was a Brazilian beer.
