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. The history of Dos Equis Amber is traced to the development of the popular Oktoberfest-style of Vienna lager originally created during the mid-19th century.

This is one of my favorite Mexican beers just because it goes with almost every single item on the menu. Light amber with no head. If you are expecting this to be a medal winner, than your expectations are way too high.

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.
