Bottle. Pours a golden yellow with a thin white head. Taste is of malt, grass, kind of sweet and bitter. Aroma matches the taste. Pretty refreshing and easy to drink. Not bad to have during a hot day. I wouldn’t mind buying this again.

Pours deep gold with a large white head and some lacings. Light floral aroma. Tatse is mild sweet malts with a astringent, bitter finish. Much more flavor than most lagers. Good brew with Mexican or Southwestern food. If it truly is just 4%abv would make a good barbeque beer.

32oz in mug. Bleah. Purchased mainly for the bottle, to contain homebrew. Clear yellow, white fizzy head, good retention. Slight sour, grainy smell. No bitterness apparent. Tastes... yellow. Obviously best served cuh-hold....

I flew to Mexico several years ago and these were free on the airplane. I think this is Mexico’s answer to Lucky Lager. Granted, I had about 9 of them on the plane, but they were free.

This is seriously the Keystone Light of Latin America. No flavor whatsoever, color is a very light yellow. There’s really nothing here. Some people dig that. I’ll pass.

From a 12 fl. oz. bottle marked M0327E2101*7. Pours a kind of honey colored yellow. It’s a bit darker than I expected. The aroma wasn’t very impressive. It had something of malts and grass. The taste is a bit more appetizing and sweeter. A reasonable Mexican cerveza.

This was a typical mexican lager. Very crisp and clean and overall better than i had expected it to be.
