Sammy (6120) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 18, 2004
foam in pour and amber colour. Works as a Vienna. Smooth drink with significant malt. Light mouthfeel, mild bitter aftertaste. Would work with spicy food. From broken sixpacks at LCBO.

DocLock (5970) - Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 13, 2004
Pours amber, with a decent malt flavor. Finishes smooth, crisp, and malty. I had this with Mexican food, and it seemed to compliment the food pretty well.

daknole (5856) - Scottsdale, Arizona, USA - MAR 26, 2008
Pretty darn good for a Mexican beer. Not a world class beer, but if you are enjoying Mexican fare, this is a decent choice. Maltier than most Mexican beers.
