<p>I had a bottle of <a href="https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahma_beer" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Brahma</a> beer when I was in Brasíl some years ago, and I didn't save the label.  These are what I remember:</p>

<ul>
<li>it was sweet and malty.</li>
<li>it had a white label.</li>
<li>it had 4% or thereabouts alcohol.</li>
<li>I purchased it at a decent and reputable restaurant circa 2008 — so it most probably wasn't an old or even a mislabeled bottle.</li>
</ul>

<p>Reading their <a href="http://www.brahma.com.br/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">website</a> is difficult for me, but I don't see anything which strikes me as a clear match — not even the Weiss (White) variety.

# Which Brahma beer is unhopped?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-03-31)

I had a bottle of [Brahma](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahma_beer) beer when I was in Brasíl some years ago, and I didn't save the label. These are what I remember:

* it was sweet and malty.
* it had a white label.
* it had 4% or thereabouts alcohol.
* I purchased it at a decent and reputable restaurant circa 2008 — so it most probably wasn't an old or even a mislabeled bottle.

Reading their [website](http://www.brahma.com.br/) is difficult for me, but I don't see anything which strikes me as a clear match — not even the Weiss (White) variety. Possibly, I suppose, but I don't see anything in the description [here](http://www.brahma.com.br/cervejas/extra-weiss) which would obviate this question.

Are you sure it wasn't the Brahma Malzbier? I've had regular Brahma before and it taste like any other watery pale lager from MillBudCoors.

The Malzbier is a beer that is dark and they add caramel and it's low alcohol and sweet.
