Bottle. Again, nothing really special about this Mexican lager, so it’s not really any different than the other lagers out there. Good with a great mexican meal.

Not a bad mexican beer but I’ve had better. Would highly recommend to have it extremely icy cold - it makes it taste even better

Blanca sure describes this beer. A bland mixture of adjuncts with some hoppiness. Just about the worst of the Mex brews.

bottle - Pours fizzy and yellow with a light, grainy aroma. It tastes bland with some malt and corn and finishes even more blandly. Yes, it’s another lousy pale lager. I’m tempted to just shorten most of my pale lager ratings to those few words... Another Lousy Pale Lager.
1.8 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 beerbomb (173) - New Jersey, USA - MAY 6, 2006
Typical corniness story-doesnt have the nice bready, funky wheat flavor most mexican or south american pale lagers have. this just tastes like dusty us macro. ive heard good things about this but either i got an old batch or the stories were wrong. sweet corn all around with watery palate. the 6% is hard to believe too.

UPDATED: APR 26, 2006 Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours pale golden with a white head, aroma of grain, sweet malts, hoppy aroma. Flavor is bland, sweet malts, water, hops. better than most macro brews.
1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 3fourths (6218) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - APR 18, 2006
Sour corn and grains, full of sweaty scents. Flavor is more sour and spoiled grains and corn. Not enjoyable at all.
1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20 pkbites (478) - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA - APR 13, 2006
Is this really 6% alcohol? It doesn’t come across like it is. Bottle- April 13, 2006. Paid $1.99 for a quart bottle at Discount Liquor on Oklahoma in Milwaukee. No real aroma, corn water color, bright white head that is temporarily frothy but then fades. Extra light flavor. I’m an *experienced* drinker. This does not drink like a 6% brew. More like a 4.2. I’m challenging the 6% claim!
Nothing offensive about this. Certainly not as much character as other Mexican offerings. But, get it cheap and it’s a good "lawn mowing beer". Especially if it really is 6%.
