This is another beer that’s easy to rate low. Since I enjoy the mexican beers, I’ll be one of the outliers that rates it well. Add a lime to give it some body and it will quench any hot day’s thirst.

Great ads during the olympics led me to buy this one. I vaguely remember liking this beer when I was in Acapulco 15 years ago. I must have had sunstroke at the time. Some skunk and a corn aroma. Too carbonated and good riddance when finished.

bottle: After all these odd commericials I actually got around to downing one. After the Bud I just finished at the local grill, this tasted like the best beer ever, but that can’t be the case I know. Some malts are there, went down smooth but seemed to scream for a lime. I’ve had way worse beers.

Bottle 355 ml. R$ 4.20 (US$ 2.18) in Bar Tihuana, Salvador, Brazil. Yellow with poor head. Not very good, but not bad.

Uma cerveja muito parecida com as cervejas brasileiras. Gostei do seu aroma e paladar. Ótima para dias mais quentes pela leveza!
