Bohemia D'ouro
Sociedade Central de Cervejas

 

Hmm only one other person has reviewed this beer and that was over 2 years ago.. interesting. I guess this could be considered a 'rare' beer.. but it isn't that great of a beer so it isn't even worth the rarity. Pours a pale yellow color, faint adjunct/rice smell to it. No head to this bad boy. Taste is quite light bodied and thin, not much for real flavor here... tastes just like all the other mass imported beers that come from non-European countries. Drinkable, but then again so is water, just nothing here taste wise to justify buying this unless you're trying to impress a Portugese friend.

New beer from Sociedade Central de Cervejas. They used the Bohemia denomination to capitalize from the success of Sagres Bohemia, although Bohemia D’ouro has nothing to do with the original brand.

Bohemia D’ouro is a very clear beer with a golden blonde color. The head is white, frothy and moderately large. The head does not persist very long, but when it fades it leaves a nice lacing.
The nose is agreeable with the dominance of floral hops. The taste is nothing special confirming the nose with some light sweet malts.
Smooth mouthfeel, moderate carbonation, fair alcoholic strength for a macro lager, and a light body. The finish is not very long and very slightly bitter.

Overall Bohemia D’ouro is Ok but not great. No outstanding feature. It appears they have tried to achieve a balance between hops and malts, but with mixed results. It is really much better than the mass marketed Sagres macro lager.
