Pour is dark copperish with red hues and a minimal head formation. Aroma is faintly grassy and malty. Taste is medium-bodied with a biscuit malt sweetness and subtle caramel balance. Hard to detect the hops in this brew which is never a good sign. Finishes with little to no fanfare and with a mildly skunky bite, similar to a George Killian’s. And it’s Ambar*, not Amber.

Dec 26, 2009 12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a medium white frothy head. A sweet dirty nose of water and malts. A funky dirty water flavor, biscuits and somewhat flavorful malts, not too many adjuncts at least. Drinkable.

Nov 30, 2009 Light Amber pour with a white head. 32oz draft. Aroma is sweet and malty. Flavor follows this, light malt with some cardboardy aftertaste. it was cold, which tripled its value to me at the time.

Nov 25, 2009 Dark amber/cider color; Medium body; Aroma of malt and dry fruit; Flavor of roasted malt, caramel, and very light hops; Aftertaste is a bit sour - but not that bad; Probably one of the better Mexican brews for me.

Nov 21, 2009 This is my go to Mexican food beer. Is it world class? Nope. Is it completely drinkable? Absolutely. There is not much to the aroma. Taste is slightly bitter and maybe a little sour. There is a little roasted malt pleasantness going on. The beer leaves a decent taste on the palate that is pleasing enough to order it every time you go out for carnitas. What more could one ask for?
