Taquiña Cerveza

Cervecería Taquiña
Bolivia·Euro Pale Lager
Tap to rate

Cochabamba's own lager — clean and refreshing with a subtle malt sweetness and a crisp finish. Taquiña is the beer of Bolivia's garden city: drunk at the famous Cancha market, at chicha festivals and alongside salteñas in the valley heat.

◌ Aroma

The nose is restrained and clean, leading with subtle grainy malt notes and a whisper of bread crust. Noble hops provide a gentle, mineral-tinged backdrop without assertiveness. No esters or sulfur; the profile speaks of careful fermentation and mineral water character.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a light, refreshing malt sweetness balanced by a crisp, dry finish. Mid-palate reveals mild bready character and a faint minerality that echoes the water profile of Cochabamba's valley. Bitterness is restrained at 20 IBU, allowing the clean malt backbone to remain the focal point.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and relatively short, with the sweetness receding quickly to leave a dry, mineral minerality on the palate. No harsh or lingering bitterness; instead, a sense of refreshment and thirst-quenching ease.
