Imperial

Imperial is preserved as a Costa Rican pale lager identity with strong national recognition. Exact Heineken portfolio involvement is not confirmed here, so portfolio timing is left blank and the beer is marked outside the active Heineken portfolio. As an archive profile, Imperial represents tropical pale lager character: pale golden colour, filtered clarity, bottom fermentation, light malt sweetness, restrained bitterness, and a clean short finish. Within the archive, it helps document Central American lager culture alongside Heineken-connected and non-Heineken regional beer identities.
