Pours nice caramel color, with light beige head. Very sweet aroma, hint of honey. Flavor is not bad just weak, sweet caramel and brown sugar. Body is very light and watery.

12 fl oz bottle. aroma has a hint of fruitness. deep redish golden pour, hence the amber. light diminishing head with a slight lacing. light in body and subtle in flavor with a watery texture followed by a faint bitterness.

Bottle shared with DownsouthGav. Copper colour with no head, overly sweet and rather sickly. Poor excuse for a caramel like taste. Purely experimental!

A great mexican beer with or without a lime. Blows Corona and many other Mexican beers out of the water. Good for drinking a lot of beer on a warm summer day

poured from a tap a light reddish-gold color. The flavor is smooth with very little aftertaste. Refreshing.

12oz bottle. Red-brown with a weak tan head. Has a thin and slightly grassy aroma with some brown sugar. The flavor is light and crisp, with some brown sugar and caramel flavors that definitely put it above the typical mexican lager. The definite go-to of the mexican beer 5 de mayo taste off. It’s not exactly water, but it does the job just the same.
