11/10 0.33 l bottle from a street market in Genova. It poured pale yellow body with medium sized head. Malty aroma of some cheap boring pale lager... Flavor is slightly eggy, dusty, predominately malty, but not something that couldn’t be drinked. Some honey and flowery finish. A boring beer, but I won’t complain too much over my first Peruan rate.

Bottle 31 cl. Courtesy of Myrup. Pours a hazy pale yellow with a small off-white head. Weird, tart herbal aroma. Light body, a little low in carbonation, tart citrus and herbal notes. Tart finish without being infected. A very strange experience. 130809

Bottled. A hazy light golden beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is sweet and very spicy. The flavor is slightly acidic with notes of spices and citrus, leading to a dry spicy finish. Thanks Myrup for sharing.

Hazy golden with a tiny white short lasting head. Flavour had loads of what I presume coca leaves, and herbal notes. Finished spicy.
