ewho is that asshole clown that only drinks dos equis in that commercial. he needs to get a clue

12 oz bottle. Poured a pale gold color with a two finger white head. The aroma and flavor were mainly grain, with a slight bitter grassy finish.

Unlike Corona, Dos Equis is truly ’The drinko for Cinqo de Mayo". El Real de Cervezas Mexicanos - the best Mexican beer I’ve ever had and my beer of choice whenever I eat at a Mexican Restaurant. It must be brewed in the tradition of the Austrian brewmeisters that came to Mexico when Maximillian ruled in the 1860’s It has bit of a Europen edge that I like in a beer - just the right amount of bitterness.

Great Mexican beer; very smooth. I had some directly from Mexico and that blew the American import out of the water!

Good mexican lager. Hints of malty, roasty wheat. Tasty, highly carbonated beer, but definitely drinkable. Best of the mexican beers I think, and outshines the Dos Equis Amber by a slight margin. Nothing special, but not bad.

Bottle. Pours a pale yellow. No head. Malts,grass,and corn in the aroma. Flavor is grass and citrus. Light body. Smooth on the palate.

Pale lager with a steady head, sweet aroma and a harsh smokey, metallic and strongly alcoholic flavor

The aroma was the best part of it, I guess, with it’s malt sort of sweetness and licorous tones, adding the yeast. The taste was some weak hoppiness along with also faint roasted malt, more water than necessary, but quite drinkable. Color was nice, slightly dark golden, little and quick fading white head. Drinkable one!
