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.

Karmelowo-melanoidynowe z nutą specyficzną dla piw z kukurydzą. Barwa jasnozłota, przejrzyste, piana redukuje się do krążka, ładny lacing. Goryczka znikoma, palono-ziemista. Słodkie, wodniste, bardzo specyficzne w smaku ale ogólnie da się wypić jedno małe.

Bottle pour from Total Wine & More, Burlington. Clear gold with beautiful sparkle, thin head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma is sweet corn, malt, vague fruit. Taste is grain, corn, bittering hops. Smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. I've had a lot of beers worse than this one.
