On tap, Flying Saucer-Cordova. Served with the lime slice. A pretty enjoyable Mexican lager. Has some hints of hops flavor which can make it your best option in some bars. Definitely one that asks to be drunk while outside in warm weather.

Un’altra curiosa lager messicana; non si può - perlomeno - dire che le facciano tutte uguali e simili alle nostre lager da tanto al kg. Questa ha un sapore piccante e dolce, estremamente stucchevole ma lì per lì non dà fastidio; bisognerebbe servirla in bottiglie da 5cl.

Great ads during the olympics led me to buy this one. I vaguely remember liking this beer when I was in Acapulco 15 years ago. I must have had sunstroke at the time. Some skunk and a corn aroma. Too carbonated and good riddance when finished.

bottle: After all these odd commericials I actually got around to downing one. After the Bud I just finished at the local grill, this tasted like the best beer ever, but that can’t be the case I know. Some malts are there, went down smooth but seemed to scream for a lime. I’ve had way worse beers.

Bottle 355 ml. R$ 4.20 (US$ 2.18) in Bar Tihuana, Salvador, Brazil. Yellow with poor head. Not very good, but not bad.

Uma cerveja muito parecida com as cervejas brasileiras. Gostei do seu aroma e paladar. Ótima para dias mais quentes pela leveza!
