UPDATED: APR 11, 2006 Not as unpleasant as most of the other mexican cervezas.. and of course it is very important that you drink this beer fresh after it’s been kept cold since it is a lager. Watery, yes, but at least the malt is detectable in it. Anyway I’m biased, always what I drink in Mexico or at a Mexican restaurant if they have it.

Tasted like watered down corona, and thats not a good thing. There really was no taste and no aroma. very thin mouth. A bad beer.

Water in a bottle comes to mind. This beer would give Corona a run for it’s money as worst Mexican beer. Possible equivilant to the U.S.A.’s Miller Lite.

Clear yellow gold lager with a small lingering head. Aroma is hoppy with some flower and grainy notes and a bit of malty touches. Very soft flavor, it’s almost unnoticeable in the beginning but it has a decent bittersweet finish. There’s too much water in this brew.

pale golden w/ no head though rather carbonated. light bodied, it has crispy mouthfeel. sweet with a tiny bit of bitterness.

Better than most lagers. Pours a pale golden yellow, with almost no head. Aromas of grass, corn, and a little skunk. Flavor is crisp typical lager taste with a hint of hops.

got this in an authentic mexican restaurant. I guess it was a nice compliment to the spicy food. I guess crisp would be a nice word to describe it, much better then any other mexican beer i’ve had. good carbonation, pretty average taste, bit skunky and thin.

My favorite mass-produced Mexican beer. That said, its still a Mexican beer. Bottle: Poured golden, nice frothy head. Taste was a bit skunked on this occasion, thus giving me a less that happy ending.
