Bottled. Golden colour, creamy head. Vague aroma of grassy hops. Very light bodied. There's some fruitiness, some weird black currant, a light breadiness and a lot of cereals. No bitterness.

Sampled draught at Balcony Bar, Rio de Janeiro
This pub on the Copacabana was a recommendation from another beer site. It proved to be something like a brothel where fat Americans in their upper 70's socialized with young Brazilian girls, boys and something-in-between. This beer was worse than the place. Golden coloured with minimal head. Fruity, mellow and semi-sweet. Boiled vegetables dominate the picture. Awful. Avoid (both pub and beer)

Bottled. Intransparently black with rich beige head. Roasty coffee with cream and too much sugar. Chocolatey, soft and rich, but very one-dimensional.

Bottled. Black with rich beige head. Sugary sweet with cloying syrup but also some pleasant woodiness. Clean mouthfeel and a fairly nasty saccharine finish.

Bottled. Golden colour, rich head. Aroma of flowery hops and cereals. Mellow, sweet and buttery.. Clean, empty mouthfeel. No bitterness. A raw and remarkably tasteless beer, despite it's medium body.

Bottled. Very black with rich, majestic beige head. Sweet roasty aroma. Honey dominates, but it is totally, extremely overwhelmingly sweet. Cloying and syrupy to the point that it is hard to swallow. A slight hint of bread shines through the layers of molasses and syrup in the finish.

Bottled. Comes in a clear bottle. Golden colour, creamy head. Adjunct laden, sweetish and bland. Mild and with low bitterness. Besides the fasct that it tastes too little to taste bad there isn't much positive about this beer.
