Government is controlling a lot of activities, including exporting. many companies fled the country and started to produce abroad…Polar produce corn flour in Texas and Colombia. I guess they are licensing that brand as well.

Thanks Anthony for the info. Venezuela seems to be up shit creek at the moment, average beer, i guess, is the least of their worries. Hope the country stabilizes soon….

Rob Nesbit(Give?) Well, I’m not socialist, but you can’t “Give” if you don’t produce any longer-
IT was always an Auburndale Beer here in Florida.
It was Brewed in Venezuela and imported here in Miami for a long time.
It’s a #4 on a scale of 1-10, “10” being the Best-It’s a Adjunct Beer. Nothing to write home about. Nice Label.

Thanks Bill, yeah that sounds weird alright. You would imagine that with their economy going down the pan they would at least give the people good beer to drown their sorrows…..

By strange quirk, the beer there is brewed by the Florida Beer Company in Auburndale Florida (as can be made out in the picture above) and then shipped to the Caribbean. Venezuela is so goofed up that they don’t even export beer anymore.
