¿Se va a tomar una pola o qué?

English Translation

Are you going to have a beer or what?

The “La Pola” beer brand eventually ceased production and vanished from store shelves. However, the drink had become so wildly popular that generations of locals had grown accustomed to ordering a “pola” whenever they wanted a brew.Over the decades, the brand name transformed into a generic colloquialism. Today, whether you are ordering an international import or a local craft beer in Colombia, you are still paying homage to a 19th-century revolutionary spy.
