The commercial desription says "slightly hoppy finish" and I would highlight the word SLIGHTLY. The beer is refreshing but lacks body and flavor. A good afternoon by the pool beer.

| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Apr 10, 2005 From the bottle this pours very light golden, perfectly transparent, with a thin fast falling white head. Aroma of corn, faint malts, and no hops. Taste was thin and clean with a slightly slimey mouthfeel. At least there wasn’t much skunked flavor in this. rajendra82 (704), Alpharetta, Georgia, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 18, 2005 Updated: Feb 25, 2005I had been spotting this German style Pilsner with a Mexican twist on the shelves for quite while, but had been passing it by always. Decided to take the plunge today and got some. The beer came in a bottle with sunny label art that was clearly drawn with the influences from south of the border. The beer poured exceptionally clear and had a smallish head that did not last long. The stream of bubbles however never did stop spewing up. The aroma was clean with the signature grassy smell of noble hops. The malt backbone was also quite solid in the nose with a sweet honey (or corn syrup) like smell. The taste was very fresh, with a perfect balance of sweet malt, bitter hops, and lemony sour yeast. Not an offensive note to be found anywhere. I felt that the body was slightly heftier than a regular Pilsner, but the respectable level of hops kept it from becoming malty like a pale lager. I was quite impressed with this beer, which surpassed all expectations I had for it. I imagine this would be a great accompaniment for some spicy quesadillas or fajitas, and I’ll be sure to try some soon.
P.S. - Do not drink this beer ice cold. At the cool temperatures, corn seems to dominate the taste. Once warmed up to about 50 degrees F, this one opens up with some good maltiness.
