Sol (Mexico)

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

[bottle - 12 oz] Pale yellow with no head. Not much of an aroma, but what I could detect was metallic with some notes of dry grass. The taste wasn’t that bad. I was expecting it to be like Corona, but it was less bitter than that. Not much of a flavor, in fact it tasted like seltzer, but at least it wasn’t bitter and overpowering. It didn’t even need a lime. I do give it props for the painted labels.

pours piss-like golden yellow in color, not much of a head, aromas of corn and water, as well as its lack of an interesting taste, i felt like i was drink the water from a pot i just used to boil corn, horrible.

"It’s hot outside, why wouldn’t you drink this?", said the unsuspecting owner...Because it’s tasteless, reeks of adjuncts, and contains no interesting flavor whatsoever..."Well, you don’t have to yell you know!"...Apparently, I get angry easily in the presence of such mediocrity...

Large white soda bubble head. Good carbonation but looks like ginger ale. Aroma of tomatoes (acidic), corn and a bit of lemon. Color is a medium gold. Lots of floaties. Unsure if it is the beer or a dirty glass. Flavor is weak and watery. Cardboard and corn flakes. Eat teh box with the cereal. Finish is smooth and short lived. No hops. Bland but not offensive.

Bottle. Pours a dehydrated urine yellow with no head. Smells like water, tastes like water. Some corn and once eaten hay.

I was sweating my ass off after just working 12 hours and I had just bought a mixed 6-pack with one of these. I figured it would be decent - not great, just decent, refreshing, along the lines of a Corona. I was wrong. It was pretty bad with a slight metallic taste to it. As hot as I was, it didn’t even refresh me at all. I would not recommend it unless you were dying and it was all that you could find.

Same category with Corona. Light, unimpressive beer. No particular aroma, almost on head at all. Very poor finish.

I dont even know why i took notes on this unworthy of a beer crap, but i did so here it goes. Waterish liquid with a gold tint of dye added and small fizz head. Aroma was typical of a pale lager but just to make matters worse its a beer from Meixco which made it smell even cheaper. Nothing to be said abotu the flavor besides its weak and not that appetizing and will taste like piss once the caguama bottle(32oz.) warms up a bit. Used to drink this stuff quite often when i used to drink whatever was on sale. Now that it’s summer i dont mind a a beer of this on a hot day at a los panchos restaurant if they didnt have any dos equis or bohemia there.
