I tried this beer on September 11, 2009 at "Smokeless Joe’s" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a translucent dark gold with a thin white head. The aroma was weak grassy malt, citrus, hops tequila. The mouthfeel was light bodied with medium-high carbonation. The flavour was grainy malt, a little sweetness....and old tequila

Can, 50 cl, poured in a glass without a slice of lime. Dark golden beer with some bubbles, medium white creamy head. Presentation rather OK. It smells like something artificial I can’t really place. Is it the smell of tequila mixed with beer? Of sweet fruits? I can’t say it. It doesn’t smell bad, but it doesn’t smell like beer. Totally the same story for the taste: I can’t place it and I don’t know whether this is the taste of beer mixed with tequila or sweet fruits or something else, but it also doesn’t really taste like beer, more artificial also. Even more: there is a slight touch of alcohol in it. Don’t really know what to say about it, it is not bad to drink, but maybe it was better to NOT imitate the Corona (or overall a Mexican beer), because that can’t be good and to make a choice between a) making a beer or b) making a cocktail. But not both.

0.33l bottle. Nice white foam with good lacing. Clear gold color. Aroma and taste of exotic fruits, but not tequila. Sweet alcoholic lemonade with astringent and acidulous finish.

For a beer with added flavors, this is not as bad as a beer with strawberries or other fruits/berries, but the amount of lime just kills it all...

Aroma: hay, malt, an artificial lime note. Taste: Strange lemon/lime taste is dominating. No distinct other taste notes. I cant find the tequila. Would not buy it again.

You can’t feel the tequila in this one. Just another pale lager beer with no aroma no foam and awfull colour.
