Commercial Description:
Dos Equis Amber is a rich, full-bodied Mexican import with a reddish-gold color and is made from the finest ingredients, representing the brand’s traditional Mexican heritage.

Very nice reddish color, but a slightly yeasty off smell. Not typically watery but something just a bit off in the yeasty taste. Somewhat dry and malty in the finish. Not all that bad even if a smaller macro, but also not all that good.

Dark copper red with almost no lasting head. A little more body than the Dos Equis Special Lagerr, but still nothing substantial. Minimal flavor with slight malt and alcohol finish. Better than some of the other Mexican macros.

Bottle, poured a dark, caramel-amber color. Smelled of malts, grains and hops. The taste was sweet and heavily dominated by a malt and caramel flavor; very light on the tongue and not much complexity. Finishes crisp and slightly bitter but has a nice aftertaste. Not bad, but not outstanding either.

Pretty drinkable, very average. A bit dark, some caramel, some malt. Forced carbonation destroys the mouthfeel. Overall, pretty average, uninspired beer. But I suppose it’s better than some of the other awful Mexican beers I’ve had.

Very Carmely and not really my thing. Definitely not a beer you’d drink a lot of in a sitting. Probably won’t try this again but don’t have any hard feelings towards it.
