Commercial Description:
Cugino Beer is an extra-smooth premium Italian-style beer. This beer has a subtle caramel malt start and a cleansing floral hop finish. The mild yeast complexities and the use of all barley malt round out Cugino, making it a great beer any time.

12oz bottle(8/02)-Contract brewed by Two Brothers. A golden body with a decent head and an aroma of grains. Taste of grains and nothing. Another pale lager with nothing to write home about.

Bottled. Pours a medium golden color. Aroma is somewhat sweet and grainy. Kind of sour and acidic as well. Flavor is sour and malty. Almost a creamy mouthfeel. Sour and bitter finish. Not really very good.

found this at some store in wisconsin once on a camping trip: $2 for a 6pack. figured, why not, right? ratebeer.com offers four good reasons why not: aroma, appearance, flavor, and palate. my friends and i spent the whole first beer trying to figure out what it tasted like. we decided "pistachios" or some other inappropriate nut. then i gave the other 5 bottles away to some homeless guy who was sleeping on our campsite when we had arrived. his name was mark. this beer’s named Cugino. I reckon i’ll see them both in hell.

Had this one bottled. I got it in North Aurora, Illinois, if that means anything to anybody. I have no idea where Cugino is brewed -- maybe Huber makes it? Anyways, a decent lager, corny taste, thin watery head and mouthfeel. Not much going on here.

This is darker than their light beer, almost gold with the same white head as their light and big carbonation. This is worse than their light beer. It is offensive...drain pour. No need to use your liver as a sieve for this one.

The bottle says this was brewed in Monroe Wisconsin, Huber country. Anyone live near Fermi labs who can see if this place really exists in Batavia? It’s really not worth the effort. It’s pretty sweet and grainy for my tastes with little hopping. Wherever it’s from, I don’t want any more.

Not a lot to sneze at. Golden in color, decent head. Slightly sweet- corn? Claims to be America's first Italian beer? What the heck does that mean?

Another new micro-brewery and another micro American standard. Interesting and well done with a notable American hop finish. Better than macro surely but us nuts are waiting for you to expand your offerings. We hate to pay micro $ for standard. Best of luck, your efforts are appreciated.
