I love it when the bottle says it’s one thing and ratebeer classifies it as something else. This beer isn’t as awesome as the Most Interesting Man, otherwise it’d have a beard and be badass.

Had this at the Prickly Pear in Mooresville. I guess it’s better than the regular one? Who knows. Dos Equis tends to disappoint unless I’m on a beach in Mexico. Word.

Bottle while on honeymoon in Cancun. When I ordered a Negra Modelo, the waiter brought me this bottle with a paper towel wrapped around it, on which, he had written in crayon "Negra Modelo". So even though it wasn’t what I had expected, I gained another rating. Poured a pale clear amber with good light tan head. Corn and toasted grain. Medium light body with high carbonation. Grainy aftertaste. Not a Negra substitute.

Sampled on draught at Carlos O’Kelley’s restaurant in Fairfax, VA. Pours a fine, clear amber with a medium white head. Aroma has some caramel in it, with dry seltzer water hops, like its brother Dos Equis lager. Works very well with spicy mexican food, beans, chips and the like. Paired with food, this is not a bad choice. But certainly not something a conniseur would drink. Decent beer.

Appearance: Light, golden brown. Little bit of head. Aroma: Malt, maybe some caramel and hops. Sweet. Taste: Some malt and hops. Dry. Nothing special. Info: 330ml bottle, 23/4-2007

Nothing too impressive about this one. Some of my friends realy like it but I dont understand why. I probably wont ever have it again.

12 oz straight from the bottle. Cringed as I popped the top off, anticipating the filth that lay before me. Slowly I tipped my head back, drowning my boredom with sip after sip of a poor excuse of a cardboard flavored beer. Note to my mother’s friends: next time you bring this beer with you for a dinner party, remember to either A. drink it all, or B. take it with you. Thanks

a average decent amber. i like the green bottle better but this will do too. its good to change and and intertwine the two for variety. easily available in any mexican restauraunt. not bad.
