Jun 11, 2006 Updated: Sep 8, 2006This is one of my favorite pilsener style beers. Great hoppiness, color, fizz and refreshing. I like the slight dryness. A true premium lager. More complex than Modela and other mexi-lagers. Sometimes hard to find, but worth looking for in mexican markets and good beverage stores. Great bottle design (sorry, I’m as sucker for a good hold!)

Jun 9, 2006 The 12 ounce bottle poured a clear, golden yellow beverage with a small fizzy white head that did not last very long and left little or no lacing on the glass. The aroma was slightly dominated by a caramel maltiness but there were subtle notes of old harness leather and horse sweat. The body was light with lively carbonation and a watery texture. The finish was short and somewhat dry. The flavor started off a little on the bitter side and stayed consistent throughout.

May 30, 2006 Pale yellow colour with a small fast disapearing head. Weak aroma of malt and hops. Boring.

May 20, 2006 One of the more hoppier beers in mexico although it is an artificial taste, no head, no body and a nothingness finish. If you had to choose between the tecates, sols, coronas and other macros id choose this one, as the lesser of the bads...

Apr 30, 2006 Tasted 20/04/2006. 330ml bottle at Flying Burrito Bros, Wellington.
Bulk standard international lager. Pale-gold, fluffy white head; grass and corn syrup on the nose; a hint of caramelly malt, dry, carbonated, ever so slight grassy bitterness; watery. The barman pumped this up, with talk of "rich malt", but it’s just another simple "premium lager". I guess, in Mexico, you can be sure that it’s cleaner than the tap water.

Apr 29, 2006 Updated: May 1, 2006Yellow, with a foamy white head that disappears quickly. Faint aroma of corn, pepper, and hops. Crisper palate than a typical Mexi-lager, with a cornish flavor up front and finishes with a slightly sourish, bitter finish. Some aftertaste, too.

Apr 23, 2006 Light golden colour. Soft flavored, sweet in the end. It’s a decent pilsener.
