Kloster Light (Mexico)

Brewed by FEMSA
Style: Pale Lager
Monterrey/Veracruz-Llave, Mexico

In a 340ml aluminum can in Reynosa, Mexico. Straw colored, with no head and light body. A dry, light, malty flavor with subtle sweetness and clean finish. Not bad for a "light beer" with all its flavors so subtle. No big grainy or corn flavors. The label brags about "under 31 kcal per 100ml". Must be for the dieters who consider one-third of a can a "serving".

They do not lie, it is light, but good to eat and calm your thrist. Good colour, good shape, little foam, but nice.

Can 34 cl. Courtesy of Grovlam. Clear yellow with tiny floating impurities and a white head leaving some laces. Light aroma of malt and brewing cereal. Light-bodied, strangely sweet without any real malt presence. Sticky artificial sweet finish - no bitterness. 141208

Can. A pale golden beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet malty with light ntoes of metal, while the flavor is sweet malty with notes of straw. The body is thin. Thanks Grovlam for sharing.

(canned 340 ml in Linares, Mexico in 2005)
Clear pale straw yellow color, white head. Not much scent or taste, mostly sweet and watery. Thin mouthfeel, very low bitterness.

Can. [Tasting session @ Papsoe] Small fizzy white head that mostly diminished. Spare display of lacework. Clear yellow color. Aroma of grass, hint of cardboard, caramel. Over the palate came mild caramel and sweet hay. Light bodied with a soft carbonation and light dry texture. Light sweet flavour with a hint of bitterness. Light dry and bitter finish. No doubt better in the hot sun of Mexico.
