Bucanero, Cristal (Cuba) 
This straw-gold beer has a much tangier nose than the Argentine beer Quilmes which I tasted just before, with a little nettle and herb note and a grainy softness. On the palate it is lots more tang and crispness too, with a bit of Pilsner-style freshness. 4.9% ABV, 33cl, Peckhams, .  |  |
Bucanero, Cubanero Fuerte (Cuba)
Known elsewhere simply as Bucanero Fuerte, the Bucanero brewery has launched this beer in the UK as Cubanero to trademark difficulties. It is a golden coloured beer with a thin white head that offers slightly starchy aromas, but with a nice floral hoppiness and some lemon fruit. On the palate there's a bit of body, with fairly clean, if rather non-descript palate, with a soft mealy character, some citrus zest and modest hops. 5.4% ABV, 33cl, ?1.20, thedrinkshop.com, Beersofeurope, . |  |
