Inoffensive pale lager. We stopped by TJ’s to pick up something light and Mexican to go with enchiladas - this worked out perfectly with a wedge of lime. It doesn’t really stand on it’s own. I see that it’s made in Tecate - I should really try this next to a Tecate and compare.

12 oz bottle while hanging out at the desert. Not a bad version of a Corona Wannabe. Except for the fact that it was a Corona Wannabe.

Inoffensive light golden crisp dry, better with limes and cold, touch of salt, decent hop backbone.

Clear golden color with a thin white head. Light malt aroma with a hint of citrus. Smooth, crisp taste. Better then corona for sure. Light finish. Pretty decent beer for a nice, summer day.

12oz Bottle - Trader Joes - Tacoma, WA
Aroma – Light malt aroma no hops found in the nose.
Appearance – Golden yellow in color, Nice head and clear.
Flavor – A nice easy to light lager beer. Nothing special just super easy to drink.
Palate – Nice Mouthfeel, great texture with a good dry finish.
Overall – A easy to drink lawnmower beer with a tad more flavor than the big boys beers.

Bottle from Cincy store. Poured clear pale color with an average frothy white head that diminished slowly with fair lacing. Moderate sweet grassy aroma. Light to medium body with a thin texture and soft carbonation. Light sweet flavor with soft grassy sweet finish of short duration. Worth trying once.

Bottle as Trader Jose Premium Lager. NIce grassy hop aroma. Pale golden color; a very little white head that filmed. Medium mouthfeel; a bit fizzy. Light malt sweetness, and it seems to be from barley. Balanced by nice grassy bitterness. It is really good for a somewhat pale lager. It’s got a start on pilsenerhood. Long trip though.

Looks like its bretheren. Pours a pale translucent yellow. Smells skunky for sure, grassy, cardboard. The flavor is grassy, a lite noble hop bite, some skunk, cardboard, a little sweet. Not terrible, drinkable at best.
