Here's some facts about the central American country El Salvador:
Population: About 7 million, making it the most densely populated country in central America
Currency: Eliminated their own unit of currency, the Colon, and now trade exclusively with the American Dollar.
Independence: Gained from Spain in 1821
Racial Demographics: 90% Mestizo (Mix of native and Spanish blood) 9% white, 1% indigenous
Main Export: Coffee
Beer: Not so great
My beer for tonight is Cerveza Suprema, which as you probably surmised hails from the land of El Salvador. I've already had a Salvadoran beer this month called Centenario which honestly wasn't half bad, but Cerveza Suprema didn't quite live up to the standard of it's fellow Salvadoran beer. I feel kind of guilty because I don't have much to say about Cerveza Suprema. It was just one of those beers that had literally nothing to distinguish it from the litany of lagers and Cervezas that have already established themselves among the import market in America. That's the thing with an import like Cerveza Suprema, I have to have a reason to want to go out of my way to find this beer and buy it. This beer was about as forgetable as "The Dana Carvey Show" that most of you out there probably don't remember from some fifteen years ago. Don't go out of your way to try this beer, you're just going to forget that you ever had it.
Salud,
Ian
