Much better than the same brewery’s light "Atlas" swill, this one was rated at 4.8% and tasted it. A decent swill, and good value for a buck a bottle.

Yellow golden beer with a bubbly dissipatting head. Faint malt and corn aroma, with some wet dog thrown in. Fresh malt and perfumy, biscuity qualities noticed. Decent bodied.

(Can) Poured a medium white head and a deeper golden body colour. Heavy carbonation. Corn malt with a wet dog aroma. Very sweet for a pilsner. Not too bad, the flavour is crisp and fresh with undertones of biscuit. Thanks Luc for sharing this!

Canned. Intense yellow color, a lot shining and with optimal fizz. Vanishing and short head. Metallic aroma and little prickly nose. Light dry taste with straw aromas and slightly moisten cereals. Something can decidedly be saved. Refreshing but inconsistent.

Pours a clear straw yellow colour. I had it in Panama 12/2003. Another iconic beer that represents the country, maybe it was the jungle, maybe it was the thirst for beer, whatever it was- i found this beer tolerable.

Bottle. Beer of choice when in Panama though I say not as good as Cerveza Panama. Pours typical pale lager- no details needed. Aromas of corn, maize, faint hops. Taste is sweet, crisp, and refreshing with a slight amount of balancing hops. Not bad whatsoever. The beer of choice at Luna’s Castle.
