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.

Pours a dark amber (duh)/copper color with little head.. Very malty, slightly sweet....not very complex. Regardless, this is still a decent beer.

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. 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.

Always heard a lot about Dos Equis. Boring, and unmemorable. Decent, drinkable, mexican beer. Maybe add another equis.
