The village fishermen of Central America sought the Great Loggerhead in warm tropical waters. It was tribal belief that this powerful turtle, also known as the "Caguama", symbolized good fortune for the fisherman's village. In celebration, a traditional brew was offered to the village in praise of the great creature from the sea... the "Caguama". Enjoy this premium cerveza, also brewed from the traditional recipe dating back to the turn of the century. It's our hope that you too will experience the good fortune of the "Caguama."
Lesson to be learned, all you people: don't buy beer in clear bottles, or green for that matter! If you must, buy the 12-pack, as there's much less light getting in that box. Speaking of which, the Cerveza Caguama 12-pack is actually a "Cooler Pack", into which you can dump a bag of ice—the carton will retain its strength even when soaking wet. In addition, where most Latin American brews sport a 4.5-5% ABV, this one falls short of even 4% alcohol by volume. |

The clue for this, the twelfth 99 Bottles letterbox: Head for the Line Creek letterbox. Cross the "shallow gully made by water runoff". A few steps up the path is a faint trail heading directly uphill, parallel to the gully. Take 48 steps uphill, parallel to the gully. You should find yourself at a spot where there's a rocky crossover in the gully: and the ground level is even with what you're standing on. There's a tree on the left, in the middle of the ditch, and a couple of smaller trees on the right. Cross the gully and take 5-7 steps. Turn to your right. You should see a trio of rocks, one is triangularish is a bit larger than the others. Behind it by 5-6' and just a little to the right is a rock jutting from underneath a fallen branch. At the rock's far end, between it and another rock (and underneath a third and a DENSE layer of pine straw) is our El Salvadorian turtle. COLORS: Dark blue and light blue. STEALTH-O-METER: There are houses (rather expensive ones, too) further uphill, but I wouldn't worry too much about them. The houses aren't going to come out and get you... it's the juveniles that live there that you need to watch out for. BEST BET: Back to the trail. Go sit by the creek!

Legend
has it...
Yeah... whatever. This imported beer is brewed and
bottled by Cerveceria La Constancia in El Salvador. It's marketed by
supermarkets Kroger and Ralph's as their "house" brand alternative to
Corona. The beer's not all that bad; add a lime wedge and it's a fair
alternative to Corona. It does have drawbacks, though: the beer's skunky
aroma is due to the fact that it's got a clear bottle, which lets in
light, which in turn destroys compounds in the beer and results in that
skunky aroma. There are a lot of beers that come in clear and green
bottles, but most of them move off the shelves a bit faster.
