Had this bottle a couple years ago. Nothing special. Typical mexican lager. Thin, barely any flavor unless you put a lime in it. Good on a hot day while youre cooking out.

15-May-08 (12-oz bottle: BevMo in La Jolla, CA) A low-budget, Guatelmalan-made "Mexican" beer hoping to appeal to broke Corona drinkers, this crystal-clear, straw-colored offering is sweet, corny and adjuncty. The flavor is thin and gets thinner in the finish, but leaves a bad aftertaste in the mouth. No hop flavor and just a touch of bitterness, but probably not from hops. Light in body and surprisingly light in carbonation too. Cheesy, stinky, funky nose. The white head is about a quarter-inch in height and settles to a partial film, but it has left an irregular patch of lace on the glass. This is just bad cheap beer. If Baja Lager is all you can afford, you’re better off drinking fluorinated city water out of the tap -- it tasted better.

Can’t believe I found this at a local old steel town bar on Main Street in Aliquippa. Ubiquitous pale yellow american lager look. Slight off veggie cabage aroma, probably from the clear bottle. Industrial citrus flavor of beer. Typical central american lager flavors. Processed lager finish. Not too bad.

Bottle from Big Lots!. Pale golden color upon pouring. Sweet corn aroma. Flavor is quite sweet. Kind of weird tasting. Like burnt corn. Pretty crappy.

I got this on clearance and decided to try it at 3.99 a six pack. It was perfect for a bachelor party and that was about it. It was 90 degrees outside so it was refreshing. Was like drinking a Corona.

Clear yellow with a white head. Sweeter than Corona, no aftertaste, very watery.

12oz bottle. Filtered with a pale golden hue. Slight ring of white head. Grainy bready almost burnt malt aroma. Slight hint of citrus. Typical corny flavor. Easy flavor and a typical south o’ the border style.
