2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle. And now a good Vienna beer from Mexico. And guess what: it’s not a Modelo-beer, but from Cuachtemoc Moctezuma (the brewery that makes the better beers in Mexico). this beer is amber coloured, without bubbles and without a head. The smell is malyu, light grainy, light in the nose. Maybe too light. The taste is OK but light. But there is a light stiff grainy and malty taste with a yeasty finish on it, making it a very decent beer.

From bottle but poured some of it in a glass to see the colour (amber). Smell has notes of caramel, some light roast, raisin, vanilla, a very slight fruit note hard to categorize. As it’s being said, dry for its sweet aroma. Light-medium body, easy to drink but nicely complex.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Deep red amber pour with a tight tan head. The nose shows burnt sugar, light vanilla and some soft dark caramel. Lots of caramel character bu tthe beer remains remarkably dry. A touch of herbal character along with some slight soft smokiness. It’s a pretty decent brew - but I still prefer the regular Bohemia.

Bottle from supermarket in Cabo San Lucas. Easily one of my favorite Mexican beers. Nice roasted flavor, dark color, great drinkability without being typical Mexican-beer-watery. Much better than Negra Modelo or Dos XX Amber

I think this is my favorite Mexican beer so far. A little richer than Negra Modelo. Nice option if in Mexico. Serving: Bottle

UPDATED: MAR 1, 2010 Bottle in Tlachichuca, Mexico: Very light on the tongue; somewhat watery. Yet chewy and tar-like in taste. Healthy amount of bitterness follows. Hints of toffee, chocolate and watered-down coffee.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Pours copper w an off white head. Nose is oxidized raisins and a bit vegetal. Flavor is brown sugar and raisins, not much else. Kinda like a Belgian strong ale without the yeast or high alcohol. Oxidized. Nice enough carb and body.
Probably the most character of any beer I’ve has on this trip. A Shame about the oxidaton
