Coqui 900:

"has cheap written all over it. disgusting flavor, as if it were left to sit in the sun for twenty years, which is probably what happened. Aroma smelled like someone opened King Tuts tomb. palate was left with a slimy feel."


"Looks ok, but smells of a yeast infection. Tastes like a standard forty pretty much, at least when it is relatively cold. Really, it is an ok forty with an unpronouncable name. I would drink this again I suppose. "

"golden color lots of head, taste like piss. Perfect brown bag beer for the boys on the coner, late at night. "

"Acording to Philly’s own Schoolly D "Coqui 900 is a B-boy’s drink". Schoolly D wrote a song about Coqui 900, it’s on his 1988 ’Smoke Some Kill’ album. Seventeen years later I’m at the corner of 9th and Washington in the Philadelphia’s Italian Market and find a deli filled with hobos drinking tall boys, 40’s and 12 ounce bottles both inside and outside of the joint. I thought what could be better than a can of beer in a bag for the walk back to the car after having Laotian food. Low and behold the deli had 16 ounce cans of Coqui 900. $1.25 a tall boy (paper bag was free). Oily, bubble gum taste. Lots of corn in every sip. South Philly hobo beer. I’ll give "900" extra points for being Schoolly D’s favorite beer and the can saying it was brewed by G. Heilman La Crosse. "
