Nice amber color but didn’t retain the head very long. Good tasting beer with no aftertaste

Tap.A medium amber color,with an off white head. Verry little in the way of aroma,slight malt and metal. Flavor is week malt,a hint of fruit,and a tiny hop finish. The only half way good beer at the local Mexcan place,goes good with my burrito though.

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.
