Garcia Andes White : Appearance
Muted golden yellow, almost orange, colour with a thin amount of white head on top that faded to a few streaks down the side of the glass.
Garcia Andes White : Aroma
Not too pungent – light wheatiness to the nose with a touch of malt sweetness. Hops were rather muted though with just a touch of citrus notes present. However, there was a touch of oxidation to the beer.
Garcia Andes White : Taste
Drinkable but a touch rough around the edges. The body had some prickly flavour going on with the wheat, perhaps the quinoa, though it wasn’t a drain pour, it wasn’t delightful to drink. The hops had some presence, with some light citrus dusting.
Garcia Andes White : The Bottom Line
I’d give Garcia Andes White unless someone buys me a can again to try.
