Drank this just for the rating. This was in my neighbors cooler for the memorial day weekend. Yellow pour with white head. Thin and bland, blah blah blah. Nothing to see here.

Pours a straw gold, not much head or a roma. Flavor is very minimal, which might be a good thing. Accompanied my Mexican food well; but special it is not.

Pours a clean pale straw color with a thin, weak looking head that doesn’t stay for long. Aroma also seemed faint. Flavor is somewhat muted. Average beer, I have yet to find anything special about it.

Better than Corona. This is an adequate Mex beer. I like Bohemia in the style, but this isn’t bad. Has a bit of the leathery aftertaste common in Mexican yeast, but not pronounced. The amber version has more to offer.

in can 340 ml. Pale yellow beer with a big white head that disappears rather rapidly. Weak aroma, to herbs. The flavor is good, but watery and weak. This one is a clear beer, a bit better than the water.

Not as good as its Amber brother, but not bad for a mass-produced Mexican beer. As with most of these, it’s best enjoyed ice-cold, with a squeeze of lime, whiole eating chorizo sausage or other Mexican spicy dishes.

An average beer, nothing speical. I enjoyed having it during my Mexican resturant meal on Cinco De Mayo. Tastier than bud or coors, but thats not hard to do. I liked it better than the other Dos Epuis.
