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.

Panda at home, thanks to Graham Grumbo, 03/06/24. Golden blonde with a decent lasting just off white head. Nose is rather muted, pale malts, grains, herb. Taste comprises cereals, pale malts, grains, light fruit esters, stale bread. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Passable for the style.

Volgens mij is dit uit productie want ik kom dit (bijna) nergens tegen. Toevallig in een stoffig winkeltje in een afgelegen dorpje. #peru #marzen
