Acknowledged as the world’s number one gin, it is a Dutch-type gin of 80-proof produced from selected spirits and botanical extracts. Its predominant flavor comes from juniper berries.

It was served during the Malolos Convention in 1898. National Artist Fernando Amorsolo designed the label (St. Michael) to finance his studies abroad.

Ginebra San Miguel Flavors is a flavoured spirit that has just the right amount of kick to jumpstart your party—be it an elaborate birthday celebration, the usual Friday night jam, or a simple get together with your barkada. 

 Sample Recipe


It’s easy on the pockets, too. At 700mL a bottle, it would cost you only Php 60 to buy either one of our variants, strawberry and lychee.

With its fruity flavors and low alcohol content (35 alcohol proof), it goes down smooth and is very easy to consume. 

Ginebra San Miguel Flavors is best served chilled, but if you’re feeling more adventurous, you can use it as a mixer to create an original cocktail recipe for you and your friends to enjoy.

San Miguel Apple and Lemon Flavored Beer

San Miguel Apple and Lemon Flavored Beer

San Miguel has just launched their set of flavored beers. Do you remember Cali Shandy back in the 90′s? It’s something like that but it has 3% alcohol (Cali doesn’t have alcohol content). This is for people who want to socialize with their beer drinking friends without having the bitter taste of beer. The packaging of their flavored beers is identical with the San Miguel All Malt Premium Beer. 

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk4P66T6KXjiXeHvzAi5knvqIDe8RDornZ4s5GVYpc-PreraU0WJhoCo4fghLGpVhANK9-k0-QPEm2KXzxa50MocjwonAm1_UqBjNv92K8cdsjIyFcv2D85kLPV7yA76orA8oucp63fAHa/s1600/san-miguel-apple-lemon-beer-flavor.PNG

It has two flavors: Apple and Lemon. I prefer the Lemon flavor because it’s just like drinking Sprite combined with beer. These flavored beers are not available in all bars nationwide. Their flavored beers are in line with their Lifestyle beers such as Cerveza Negra and the All Malt Premium Beer.

It was not that expensive too! Each 330ml bottle will not exceed P30.00 each.


My favorite flavor is the APPLE one, because its sweetness eliminates the bitter taste of the beer. I also recommend that you drink this one, ice cold! I’m sure this one will be a hit to all Filipinos.

Three words to describe it. Best beer ever! First, the beer has only 3% alcohol content and that made it light for me. Second, the bitter taste is almost inexistent! First time I drank it like drinking an ordinary juice. Although it may seem like a ladies drink, I don't care. The next time you go to parties or gatherings,look for one and enjoy yourself an ice cold flavored beer! Drink Moderately! =)

Red Horse Beer

This is a complete different brew and was even a separate brewery until a few years ago, when it was acquired by San Miguel.


It’s somewhat sweeter also and with more acid than the rest. It also comes with cereals, starch and sugar added (really!)

Taste consists of malt and corn, picked up some honey, grass and booze as well. Overall, the taste is very light, surprisingly little sugar or hops. Light bodied with low carbonation. Aftertaste is very dry with a lingering booze taste.

This beer has danger written all over it. High alcohol beer that can easily be chugged without being to heavy or sugary. The taste is very dulled down with no distinguishable features, but for malt liquor, that may be a good thing.

Gold Eagle

 This seems to be the budget alternative to SMB. Priced slightly lower, the Grande version can go for as low as 39 Pesos per 1 liter bottle!

Light malt finish with hop accents. Very slightly different than the pilsen variety, except for the hop accents and malt finish. Bright-gold color with small hop nose, and a very ordinary dry hop flavor. Finishes just like it starts with a small malt and brief dry hop aftertaste. An enjoyable beer that is better than Budwieser when served cold.

At most local Karaoke joints  you will have no problem finding this beer.

Surprisingly, this beer is not too bad; my worries were completely unfounded. The taste is similar to SMB, if slightly lighter and goes down very well. I rarely see it sold in its smaller bottles, most people seem to buy the Grande Version (1 liter) right away.
