For some reason, I thought this was going to be a darker beer. Anyway, aside from the initial disappointment, the aroma was a bit skunky and bitter. The flavor was a little corn and bitter. A pretty boing beer... if I’m having Mexican food, it’s gotta be Negra Modelo.
12 oz. bottle.

Jun 30, 2008 From a 12 fl. oz. bottle. Pours a rich, crystal clear golden color high in carbonation with a thin, white fizzy head. Aroma of malts and a little yeast. Medium mouth feel. Bolder than most Pilsners and very smooth. I enjoyed this a lot. It is one of the better Mexican beers I have tried.

Jun 30, 2008 12oz bottle. Ah, so it is a pils. Definitely figured that it was just another Mexican pale lager when I opened it, but was suprised by a rather malty body and crisp, spicy hop bitterness. Golden colored with a seak head, light aroma of grassy hops, light bodied, but not the super watery texture of its compatriots. Still not a great pilsener, but definitely respectable and surprising enough considering the brewer.

Jun 10, 2008 Tricky Mexicans, call the beer "Bohemia" which is German, and throw ole Montezuma the 3rd on the bottle and copy NEgra Modelo.... sounds like Money, tastes almost as good a NM, but not quite, good at MExican restuareante.
