Gonna have to disagree with many of the raters on this one. It was actually much better than I expected. Enjoyed it much more than the Dinkelacker I had last night, which was overly bitter. The Bavaria poured a clear gold, aroma is very pilsner - malt and hops with just a slight sour undertone. Flavor was a subtle blend of malt and hops with a touch of sweetness. A touch of hop bitterness in the finish, slightly tart. Altogether a decent brew. A notch above Heinekin in my opinion. Probably still overpriced, but as I got a single for $1.28, I’m not complaining.

Pours yellow with a medium foamy white head. Aroma is a bit skunky but still has some sweetened tones underlying it. Taste is a bit hoppy but is mixed with a flat sweetness. Mouthfeel is carbonated and a bit stale feeling. Finish is slightly bitter. Not very good at all.

Maybe something on the trip from Holland to Mexico didn’t agree with this, but it smells off. The appearance is disappointing, dark yellow with a short lived head. Flavor, well...not great, the hops are there, but it has an unpleasant bitterness. The aftertaste is also an unpleasant bitter. Overall, it’s just not a very good beer.

Just one of your not good imports. I’m not inclined to go ape-shit about how bad or good it is. It’s just not good.

A quite nice continental Lager. Satnds up well against your other standards- Stella, Hieneken, etc. I see it on sale around here all the time, sometimes for as little as $8 for 12. Great "pool" beer.

A watery sweet beer with a mild touch of Heineken. Competitively priced, but still not great value. A sugary bland drink for the kids.

I got a six of this while on vacation at Myrtle Beach. For only $3.99 it turned out to be a decent beer. Even though it was suprisingly sweet, it did it’s job for that night and I had no reprocussions from it.

Ok this one set me back $0.99 USD for a 22oz bottle so my expectations are very low. Clear golden with a frothy dense white head. The aroma is light grass and a bit of skunk. The flavor is quite sweet, much more so than I expected. Definitely better than the run-of-the-mill macro lager, but not much better.
