Guatemala is a nation known for its masterfully made Mayan tapestries, its abundance of volcanoes, its friendly people, and the quetzal. Beer is not one of those things.
This is certainly better than the rest on a typical Guatemalan menu. Many have compared its flavor and full body to a lager; however, it’s really just cerveza.
Gallo is by far the most popular beer in all of Guatemala. It’s a cerveza akin to Corona Extra that’s light and refreshing after you’ve been in the sun all day.
This tastes as if the employees at Cerveceria Nacional tried to come up with something like a German-style lager but ended up just making an oddly flavored cerveza.
