Bottle - Golden color with thin white head. Couldn’t detect much in the way of aroma, but hints of citrus/fruit. Weak flavor of sweet malt, barely detectable hops. Watery.

Very tasty. Reminds me a little of a Heineken. Had it from the bottle. Didn’t bother pouring it, just drank it from the bottle. Wonderful warm-weather beer. Not really skunky like some green bottle beer. I guess its because its not being shipped from Europe-It’s not as far of a trip from Mexico. Tastes better ice cold with no lime! Again, this is very tasty. I like it a lot.

i know this one as the GREEN bottle... I love this beer. It is sweet malty with a smooth aftertaste.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a fast disappearing white head. Sweetish malty corn aroma. Sweet malty flavor with some grainy hints and also hints of honey. Malty finish with no bitterness.

grass, pale, clear, light sweetness, light body, oily feel, average carbonation, very plain, similar to a light beer, but better than Corona

One of my favorites! Light, refreshing but still tastes like beer. No lime please!

A unique hoppy taste. Different than your typical lager. Pours a rich golden color with a very small off white head. Decent taste.
