I had my first ever at the Sofa Bar in Chivay, in Arequipa, and it is sweet. Maybe a little too sweet for my tastes. Nothing too complex, but I’ll take the more straight forward lager version of the Cuzqueña any day. 10 soles got us a 610ml bottle, enough for a couple of glassfuls between two people.
As for the locale, yes they had a couple of couches and a few comfy seats, but what caught our attention was the pool table that took up about 1/3rd of the space in this small bar. Luckily for us it was free. Unluckily for us the pockets were ridiculously narrow and it took us about half an hour before we hit our first shot, and about another half hour before the next two. We gave up soon after that being that we had to be up @ 5am for the remainder of the trip.
