A pretty good beer froim Mexico. A Pretty standard dark however. Interesting plain aroma of malts and dried grain. Limited hop taste and flavour. Overall, the mouthfeel is boring and makes this beer fairly average on a whole.

Bottle: pours an amber color. Some malt taste and some dryness that is complimented with a watered down taste. Not very good.

(bottle - 12 oz) Amber color with a thin white head. Aroma is sweet and malty with some hops and grass. Flavor is pretty similar. Rather sweet and candy-like with hints of malts and some caramel at the end. A bit watery.

Bottle (355ml). Poured in-between amber and copper with a small, rocky, off-white head which was mostly diminishing. Aroma was of sweet caramel malts with maple syrup, cranberries, odd cobweb-like notes and dusty old nuts (the type found underneath the couch). Flavor was of sweet, buttery malts with virtually no bitterness, brown sugar, dust, cobwebs and strange notes stale/bad nuts in the aftertaste. Light bodied with lively carbonation, a dry mouthfeel, watery texture and a short finish.

Pours light to medium dark amber with a beige/ almost white head. Aromas of sweet apple, touch of caramel, and a little hops. Flavors of apple, corn, caramel, other grains and a malty sweetness. Slightly bitter end. Watery. Not to bad. I enjoyed this more than Dos’s other beer.

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant beer. It is great to drink with ACP. It has a deep Amber color to it and is very rich and hearty. I must say that I enjoy this beer a lot.

Copper and reddish hue. Fast disappearing head. Lots of corn and quite watery. Smells of cardboard.

Pours a standard amber color with a head that quickly disappears. The flavour is pretty industrial, with a very light hop pellet sour bitterness in the middle, and a sugary malt sweetness at the end. The finish is metallic. More or less what I expected. Pretty boring, but atleast the commercials are entertaining.
