Costenita is Spanish for something… but what? I don’t know… but what I do know is that it’s a very easy to drink beer, that comes in a relatively small bottle. Almost like a ‘throw down’ or a ‘stubby’ the Colombians know that a quick, and easy to drink beer is a good choice in a pretty warm climate. The emphasis is on drinking the beer, rather than holding it in your hot hands.. hence the nickname (certainly in Australia, and no doubt in other parts of the world) of something known as a ‘throw down’ – to effectively ‘throw it down your gob FAST!’

As far as beer is concerned… when it comes to beer the Colombian’s LOVE it simple, small and fast. As it can be seen from their fast-paced, and frenetic lifestyles they prefer a beer that’s easy to drink… and fast.
