UPDATED: MAY 15, 2019 Para los que estamos familiarizados con aromas a Quinua en campo, esta cerveza cae como anillo al dedo. Cuerpo medio, excelente carbonatación y amargor moderado, fácil de beber. Acidez en nariz que puede ser malinterpretada por narices ajenas a la quinua al natural, leves notas florales y suficiente lúpulo en boca. Agradable.

UPDATED: APR 7, 2019 For a Kölsch style made with quinoa, it's very interesting. I dunno, we're at a Peruvian restaurant and I really wanna go to town on my wife after drinking this. I will be looking up a recipe for this to try brewing at home this spring.

330 ml bottle in Cusco. Pours with a clear amber body and a tall off-white head. Spicy hops dominate the mild aroma. Grains, including quinoa, are more prominent in the flavor. Very mild bitterness. Medium-high carbonation in a medium-light body.

33 cl bottle. The beer is a hazy gold with a white head of foam. The aroma is like apple juice. Taste is more like wheat bead. Sweet. Lighter body and medium carbonation.

Sampled at my the Super Tramp Hostel in Cusco. Hazy yellow pour with good white head. Sweet but with a touch of canned corn and just a pinch of noble hop bitterness. Not that great. But at least it was an attempt.

Clear golden with little white head. Aroma is honey straw grains. Taste is sweet honey and grains. A bit watery but very sweet. Ok.

Barbarian, Lima. Unique beer. Interesting week grain nose. Sticky sweet, alternative grain body. Don’t get how this is even remotely a kolsch. Heavy body, sweet around edges. Finishes fairly dry, with a touch of bitterness. Hard to attribute everything to the quinua, but it must be partly responsible. Not terrible, but odd.

Bière péruvienne bue dans un restaurant péruvien. Assez douce en bouche, elle se boit facilement. mousse blanche persistante. Une réussite.

Poured from a bottle at LaFresca in Lima. Definitely smelled off for a Kolsch. Too grainy and a little bit funky. Color was far too dark and murky for a Kolsch. Really liked the flavor though. The quinoa came through nicely and the subtle funk reminded me of a sour a little bit. Definitely not a Kolsch but I enjoyed this beer.
