[1] Review by lenusik from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (11/26/2007 12:41:29 AM)
"These were on sale at the liquor store recently. Apparently they will no longer be carried by the LCBO in Ontario. So, I thought I would try it and get a new country on my list. This was a beautiful clear golden colour with a nice fluffy white head straight out of the bottle. The aroma was weak and Budweiserish. It was watery on the tongue, even the carbonation seemed lacking. And the taste? What taste? No discernable beer flavour in these bottles. Maybe they were poor sellers."

[2] Review by Phishpond417 from Madtown, Wisc, USA who has tried this beer once. (10/15/2007 4:23:26 PM)
"clear, bright golden with a medium white head. a decent amount of retention that leaves a light coating of lacing on the glass. watery, a little too malty and a touch of grain. forbidden in the states- hope big brother doesn't catch you drinking it!"

[3] Review by oh6gdx from Vaasa, Finland who has tried this beer once. (2/26/2007 11:35:12 AM)
"Pale yellow colour, small (almost non-existant) white head. Citrus, hops and malts in aroma. Flavour is the same. A rather clean one, and refreshing. Definitively a good choice once the summer is here again..."

[4] Review by gaz from Windsor, Ontario, Canada who has tried this beer many times. (9/15/2006 7:47:43 PM)
"Typical of swill from the caribbean. Yellow body, no head. Tastes best ice cold. Warm it is undrinkable as the corn and vegetable tastes can be overpowering. This should be drank only when one is in cuba because there is little else to choose from and it's cheap. Great to pound back ice cold from one of the roadside vendors in Havana or Varedero"

"ahhhh Cristal my long lost friend. I really enjoyed this beer on the warm beaches of Cuba when I was there. I prefer it to many of the beers from the Caribbean but it isn't anything special."
