In 5: Tasty, Full-bodied, Sweet, Refined, Quality
¡Ay, caramba!
We discovered this little beauty on a little Brewskie night out in Liverpool and absolutely loved it. Ever since, we’ve been on a mission, scouring the supermarkets and specialist shops looking for the distinctive yellow label to brighten up our day. It took a few months of hunting but we finally managed to track it down and bring some home for a sampling and by Jove are we glad we did. I think we picked it up in our local supplier, Carringtons in Didsbury along with some Dunham Massey Deer Beer (review to follow soon!).
It’s not often we try a lager and something stands out so much that we think, wow, this is truly great stuff. It’s sweet, fizzy and a real mouthful of joy that would taste as good on a boiling hot day as a cold, dreary winter evening. A lovely foamy head stays throughout and it’s hard to believe that a lager can be so full bodied and bold, but refined and refreshing in equal measures. It oozes quality and it really makes you wonder why it isn’t lining the shelves of the pubs and bars of the UK in place of some of the other tripe.
It certainly brightened our evening and having tried quite a few South American beers recently this is certainly up there amongst the best of them. A fantastic start for the South American beers on Brewskie, hopefully there will be some more great ones coming our way soon!
Hasta pronto, Pacífico Clara!
