Bottle at Colonel Mustard.
Clear golden body, low white head
Light aroma of corn and bread.
Boring taste of malt and corn, though it’s actually a tad better than other corn based lagers I’ve had.
Still nothing special here.

PASTEURIZED
the best beer from Mexico, brew in the Austrian-Hungarian(Ottoman) style. similar to czech pilsener but with a bit of a bite or rough edge.
Not bad for hot days in Texas on the patio or out at the lake.
The safest bet here for a heat stabiliized pale lager, if the Pilsner Urquell is out of date, I usually grab this before I go to Singha. Unless Shiner has a special release(Kosmos Reserve, Frost(dortmunder style, etc).
Beats waiting until September for Octoberfest Marzen, which also means the fall shipments of good beer will be appearing soon.
Prost!

Bottle at Kuća Piva. Pale golden body. Light malty nose, very light peach. Light fruity taste, peach, extremely light bitterness. Harmless, surprisingly good for what it is. Made the price (understandable though) less painful.

Kinda pilnerlike with grassy malty flavors. Pretty watery. Had it right out of the bottle.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 Bif (529) - St. Louis, Missouri, USA - MAY 13, 2011
Bottle- Pours a clear pale golden color with a fizzy head and no real lacing. Aroma is abit sweet with a typical grain scent mixed in, not skunky.
Has a mild sweetness with a slightly bitter finish. Light body, crisp with a cleansing feel. Not a bad Mexican beer straight from the bottle. Although a piece of fruit would smooth out the rough edge. It is probably best served ice cold on a hot day. This beer can hold its own against the BMC beers although the price could be better.
