This one is a bit of fun for anyone who enjoys an ice cold beer. The following beer journal was compiled during our trip to Brazil, Central America and Mexico. All scores are rated from 1 to 10 (with 10 being the highest) and are, of course, purely subjective. Naturally, there is really no such thing as a 10 allowing the quest for the perfect beer to continue. Enjoy and salute! ... Read Full Entry

Monte Carlo: Guatemala 5/10

Lost in a sea of better peers and does not live up to its intended image. After failing to impress initially, this one was relegated.

Bavaria Light: Costa Rica 5/10

A great substitute for a glass of cold water but not very satisfying as a beer. Did come off the bench to earn a few caps though.

Estrella: Mexico 5/10

This beer tries to be a Corona or Sol but still has a lot of growing up to do. Very watery and lacks any real flavour.

Bohemia: Brazil 5/10

True to it's name, this choice was a bit lost and marginalised. Could be described as "just another beer". Still...it is beer.

Bohemia: Mexico 5/10

like its Brazilian cousin, the variety available in Mexico was found to be as impoverished of any convincing traits as the unconventional artists first described as Bohemian in the 19th century.

Dorada Ice: Guatemala 5/10

Any impact was quick to melt away. A crisp and dry beer but too watery and very thin bodied with no memorable or satisfying flavour.

Imperial: Costa Rica 4/10

Pasted all over the country and easier to get hold of than Coca Cola. Strong with final sip shudders and guaranteed to leave you dehydrated. CR's Stella with very 'hard' brand image. Gets the wooden spoon which isn't to say that it wasn't consumed fairly regularly.
