Horrific beer. Typical skunky taste with a used up, ricey smell

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just started having this beer available in
Southern Florida, and I'm enjoying it.
I ususally prefer dark beer, but at times I
like a regular and Dorada is very pleasant.
We are getting it available in 18 bottle
packs for only $12.00 total -- a great deal.
I especially like it very cold, almost to the
point of nearly frozen and offered in a heavy
frosted mug -- it's turning out to be an
excellent choice especially in hot sunny Florida weather. I don't like the popular
American beers, but Dorada is a great choice.

Reviewed from notes - consumed on 3/8/2011. Served in a cervoise at the Jungle Lodge at Tikal in Guatemala. Pours a translucent straw gold with a loose, bright white head that immediately dissipates into a skim. Not much happening in the nose - light lemon citrus notes, a faint hops presence and cereal grains. Taste consistent with nose - some corn adjuncts at the finish but overall, more bready than sweet. Mouthfeel is light and watery with a mild, even carbonation. All and all, probably my least favorite of the Guatemalan beers I had the opportunity to try. Watery, flavorless and poor mouthfeel make this a pretty unimpressive beer.
