And we take a break from our normal cider listing endeavor to take a detour and list something that's not a cider. Presidente Pilsner! (http://www.presidente-pilsner.com) If you couldn't figure it out, Presidente is a product of Le Republica Dominica (That's the Dominican Republic for you non Spanish speakers). I ended up getting a 6 pack of Presidente from the local Harris Teeter, prior to an exhibition futbol (soccer) match between Juventus and Chivas Guadalajara.
First thing first..these bottlecaps do not twist off! Nothing like trying to tailgate and realizing that you're missing a bottlecap remover. My brother and I tried using a mash of tools to try and get the cap off. Eventually, a nearby group felt sorry for us and loaned us theirs. Hooray for fellow beer drinkers!
The beer itself was different..from my memory, it didn't taste very great. I was drinking directly from the bottle, so I couldn't figure out what the head retention was like or anything like that. I drank my half, but it wasn't the most pleasant of experiences. Needless to say, this is one brand that I don't plan on ever drinking again...because of the gluttony of choices, not because it's terrible. I'd still get this over a Coors Light. Bad tasting or not, at least this beer has a little more character.
Grade: D+
Price paid: $1.33 ($8 for 6 pack)
