A Vienna (Austria) Lager out of Mexico sold in the United States. I drank 5 different Pale Ales before I had this, but the taste seems pleasant enough.

On tap at Monterrey. Reddish amber with little head. Subdued aroma - a little sweet malt. Some caramel in the taste. Fairly smooth beer, but nothing really exciting. OK with some chips, salsa and tacos.

rosenbergh (4664) - Helsinki, FINLAND - MAY 18, 2013
330 ml bottle. BB 27/01/14. At the Mexican restaurant. Clear amber colour with a small white head. Mild sugary sweet malty aroma. Not bad actual. The flavour is caramel malty with mild hoppiness. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Mora2000 (4048) - McKinney, Texas, USA - MAY 12, 2013
Medium to dark amber with an off-white head. Aroma is light toffee with some sweet grain notes. Flavor is similar. I get a lot of toffee and some light caramel, with some grain character also coming through. Fairly sweet. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Bottle. Copper with a beige head. Hay, malt and a little skunk. Malt and hay flavors with a sweet and pilsnery finish.

GIJOE (132) - Monterey, California, USA - MAY 11, 2013
Pours dark amber, thin head, and smells of caramel. Taste is sweet malt with just a slight hint of hop. Medium body, lively carbonation. Refreshing brew. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Huhzubendah (1980) - Washington DC, USA - MAY 7, 2013
Had a bottle of this with some Mexican food at Chevy’s. The beer is clear and amber with a small white head. Weak aroma. What’s there is adjuncts, grain, lager type scents. Pretty clean flavor initially with a bit of corn and grain harshness in the finish. When paired with saucy and spicy food, this flaw is disguised to some degree. A tad sweet with some fruity malt. OK.

radarsock (486) - Massachusetts, USA - MAY 7, 2013
I don’t normally drink lager, but when I do it has to unmistakably grainy with a hint of lemongrass and coriander on the finish. To pint, it pours a rusted burnt honey dark amber: trim whitish ring barely a fingernail in length. DME and rosemary noticeable, too.

paulvanpelt (163) - Reusel, NETHERLANDS - MAY 1, 2013
Niks bijzonders, maar fris aroma en een prima vervanger voor een normaal pilsener. Iets zoeter en iets meer body, verder vergelijkbaar.

Its a decent substitute of there is nothing better. Poors a amber/dark golden color with no head/lacing. Has a crisp taste to it
