Description
In 1908 Ernesto Günther and a group of investors founded in the city of Cusco, a branch of the Cervecería Alemana Günther & Tidow. In 1939 Cervecera Alemana Günther & Tido changed its name to Compañía Cervecera del Sur del Perú (Cervesur) and increased its production. In 2000 the company with its plants in Arequipa and Cusco, and with the popular brand Cusqueña, becomes part of the Backus Group (Backus y Johnston), thereby consolidating itself to the point of turning it into a company capable of competing in a globalized environment. Finally, in 2015, the Backus Group becomes part of AB InBev.

Flaske fra Waitrose, Finchly, delt med Steven: klar gylden med svært kort skum. Maltdrevet aroma og smak med ok munnfylde men heller intetsigende uttrykk. Stilig Incadesign på flasken, ellers helt forglemmelig.

Bottle as Cusquena Dark Lager from World Beer Market. 5.6% It pours a deep cola black with a tan head and ruby highlights. The aroma is malty red berries and chocolate-ish syrup. Ugh, the carbonation continues the cola comparison as does the flavor... it did come out of a beer bottle why does this taste like some kind of cherry coke type of thing... not bad per se just wholly unaccepted.

"The beer is dark golden in colour with a finger wide foam top. It tastes crisp and malty with a small bitter hint. It finishes off with a dry malty taste." - beersoftheworldproject.wordpress.com

11.2 fl oz bottle into glass. Very faint aroma of malt. Clear golden beer with small white head which leaves lacing. A few derisory bubbles ascend. Zingy mouthfeel, distant sweet malt taste. Vague hops, a touch of chalky mineral water, slight sour/sweet finish. Not bad but no reason to have another.

Many thanks for this beer to kevnic2008. Piwo o lekkim orzezwiajacym smaku, slodowe i lekko rozwodnione co pasuje do klimatu w Peru. Slomkowa i zlocista barwa ze spora iloscia babelkow. Sztucznie nagazowane, ale za to piana przyzwoicie spora sniezna, ale srednio sie utrzymuje nad powierzchnia piwa.

Dorada clarísima dos dedos de espuma. Sin aroma. Sin cuerpo. Sabor cereal algo amargo. Floja.

Dorada anaranjada, dos dedos de espuma poco duradera. Aroma neutro. En boca, nada del otro mundo, aguada, dulzona y Sosa. Olvidable.
