Super Bock
Unicer União Cervejeira S.A.

 

 

 

330 ml bottle poured into a shaker style pint glass.

L: Brilliantly clear pale gold, 1 finger stark white head, fairly solid foam persistent and leaves bits of lace.
S: Very strong skunk to open, after it off gases a while grainy barley malt and green/floral hops are evident but skunk aroma never fully disappears.
T: Light on flavor, sharp and semi-dry, some grainy malt, grassy bitter finish, some hints of white grape.
F: Light body, highly carbonated, very crisp feel, cumulative astringent tongue coat, a bit on the harsh side.
O: Skunkiest smelling beer I've ever had from a brown bottle, below average flavor, below average feel, looks great, curious name.

 

 

 

It’s better than the reviews here. Good for a hot day or by the water.
Pale gold yellow colour with a rich white head; aromas of sweet grain, citrus, caramel and malt with floral, grassy and citrus notes; delicately sweet, medium bodied on a smooth palate, flavours of sweet malt, citrus, herb with mineral, bread and light fruit notes; a pleasant balancing bitter note on the clean finish

Semi-clear golden, thick white head, bread, some caramel, grassy hop, light-to-medium body, moderate carbonation, thirst quenching, goes well with spicy food,

 

picked up this and Sagres to try while in Portugal liked the Sagres better as I didn't care for the taste a below average lager

 

 

Pours a perfectly clear golden color with a substantial white head that laces the glass beautifully. Lovely beer. The nose includes a subdued bready malt aroma and a bit of grassy hops.

The bready malt flavor is forward on the taste and is nice, but could use some help from the hops, which lurk in the background.

The mouthfeel is surprisingly crisp, fitting the beer. I wouldn’t necessarily seek this again, but I wouldn’t push away a bottle of it, either.

 

Ubiquitous in Portugal. Palatable.

 

 

 

Poured from a 200mL mini bottle best by January 2023

On the pour a thin but fine half finger head forms then quickly recedes to a ring around the glass. Body is a light yellow gold with lively carbonation.

Aroma is light and malty with a slight hit of generic cheap lager aroma. Some hops are present, but oxidized. The hops impart a slightly savory and herbal light aroma.

Flavor is similar to the aroma with a big malty base that the leads into relatively weak European hops that are slightly oxidized. Has some bitterness to it despite the adjunct lager classification. Tastes more like a euro pale lager verging on cheap pils.

Feel is refreshing and crisp with a decently long finish from the malts and even the relatively light hops. Relatively mouthcoating and leaves you with a nice malty feeling on the palate.

Overall this is a decent euro lager, and it's relatively cheap too, for the abv. Nothing really off, except for some standard import and cheaper beer qualities, but this really isn't a bad beer, certainly not a bock though.
