Unless you need to, don't spend your money on this stuff. Get temporary tatoos out of a vending machine before this. Dumped into glass to make big fizzy quick death white head. Tons of carbs in the unappealing pale, watered down yellow gold brew. The defining aromas that this has quickly vanashed but what was there is harsh with some grassy notes, grain and all around ick. Taste is also ick, although consumable: sweet cheap ingredients, what ever they are, bland and watery. Feels like a crappy beer with all the carbonation and sharp finish. EyeCartBrew is right - there is something wrong with a chick with a turn of the century flavour-saver.

much thanks to whoever brought this crap to the beer room weekend. it was skunky, had a corn taste, but damn does the tropical vibe associated with a beer from brazil just make it worth it. Damn glad to have had it.

Do you trust a bunch of obscure beer singles that happen to be sitting in a grocery cart, in the middle of an aisle, at your local liquor store, with a sign saying "99-cents ea"...? No, I normally don't either, but figured for a buck, what the hell, eh?

This beer looks odd, with a nice amount of lacing and such, but with the body looking entirely too pale. Very much looks like a normal lager that has been watered down, which is what I expected the flavor to taste like.

But before I even got this close to my mouth for a sip..., *ouch*! What's up with that aroma? Not really skunky per se (this may be a cheap-ass beer, but at least it had a brown bottle), but more like clorine. Remember back in the day, when you would go to the community swimming pool? When the grounds keeper had a few too many drinks the night before, and dumped in too much clorine? Yeah, it's kinda like that....

But surprisgingly, the flavor profile of this isn't too horrible. The thinness of the mouthfeel highlights the lack of any true of complexity -- a finely made, hand-crafter Lager, this aint! -- but still, I found this mildly interesting.

Went down well after spending the afternoon packing and moving boxes, et al. Nothing that I would seek out, and I can't forsee even running across this ever again, but still, not terrible.

(An aside: the aforementioned label does feature a rather buxom young "lady"..., but why does it look like "she" has a pencil-thin mustache? I know Carnavale is a wild party, but still, kinda creepy for a beer label!)

Very pale yellow body topped by a medium thick white head with some lace. Weak slightly sweet malty aroma with a touch of sourness and grainy notes. Malty flavor with a slight sweetness and sourness with a sour finish. Light bodied, smooth and dry.
