Ambar. I like carmelized malt beers. Presidente is OK super cold, but sorta yucky warm, too hoppy for my taste, and I'm a Certified Craft Brewmaster.

This investment will take advantage of DR Cafta and you will most likely see these locally brewed brands in the US.

See, Brahma IS Brazilian, thus not going to be included in a poll dedicated to Dominican booze.

Oooh, I thought it was a beer.
I find the taste to be incredibly disgusting. Yuck!

For beer, yes. For hard cider, it's very good.

A state of mind? Maybe?
Whats in a name when it tastes the same, regardless!
Maybe I don't like cider, maybe that's it.

I must recognize that Presidente is the best beer but since I do not like beers I must go with the benedicta.

In order of preference: Quisqueya, Bohemia, Presidente. I've not tried Soberana or Ambar yet. Presidente is refreshing when it's cold, but a beer that tastes awfull when it's not frozen is no good beer IMHO.

As for TASTE I like Presidente... but I can't drink it anymore, I get a head ake and even cramps after just a small one... a large one will make me regrett it all night long and sometimes even the next day... and I am not the only one who get's it. Is it the sugar, or preservatives or any thing they put in it to make it faster? I don't know. Light is less a problem however.
It's sad because probably no beer brand in the world has managed to become so synonimous of a whole nation.
Other brands are less a problem.. I've had NO problem at all with Brahma which I don't dislike either but I sure do miss them iced green Presidente bottles dearly... it was so part of being here.
... J-D.
