Good summer beer. Put a wedge of lime and it’s solid. Goes down crisp and easy.

Bottle 08.’ Pair this up with mexican food and eat out side as it will give you some residual gas. This is not a beer you uy to sip on and ponder. You chill it, drink it, and reload.

It has way more flavor than most mexican beers. And if you’ve got a plate of spicy food in front of you it’s the perfect beer.

Pale lager or whatever, with mexican food, it’s pretty damn good. When fresh, from the 12 pack, it’s pretty damn good. Nice and quenching with plenty of flavor to know it isn’t water. Nice enough, though nothing amazing.

VERY pale clear yellow with no head. Smells slightly skunky. Flavor of corn and husky grain. Very thin and watery. Not better with a lime. Reminds me of a heinekin and corona mixed.

Bottle. Pours a straw yellow. Smells like pale malt and oxidized metal. Some sweet malt and earth. Eh.

bottle. Metallic smell, fleeting head. Non-exsistant flavor. Very pale yellow, nothing to write home about. Not bad on a hot day, wont drink it again anytime soon.

Can. Average to almost large egg-white head that mostly lasted. Fair display of lacework. Clear sparkling body with a hay like yellow color. Aroma was primarily sweet malty hay like with a hint of hoppy grass. Light bodied with an average carbonation and light dry texture. Moderated sweet flavor with a hint of bitterness. Light sweet hay with a hint of bitter grass. I was very thirsty, and this actually was a good thirst cruncher but nothing special.
