Brought back from a cruise by a friend. Light gold. Corn and very faint hop. Watery. Nothing to see here!

Yes, I put a lime in it!!! Hey, I was at the pool (the Peurta Villarta Beach was destroyed by Hurricane Kenna) and it was really hot... It did the thirst quenching job and was surprisingly less skunky than the Coronas.

I think this is a verry good beer you wont find this beer anywhere else in Mexico but the state of Jalisco and primarily Guadalajara city. Light taste moderate aroma I tought it had a good flavor not too strong not too watery.

This is rather unnecessary. Grupo Modelo makes several more beers similar to this but better. Serving: Bottle

ghawener (1378) - San Salvador, EL SALVADOR - MAY 10, 2005
Bottle: Just when you think you have tried the worst from Modelo you stumble upon a regional brew that outdoes the others. I found this one in Cancun and even the Corona draft was appealing after this one. I had very low expectations but these guys surprised me again; skunky, chemical.

MaltDawg (1345) - Richmond, Virginia, USA - JUL 14, 2008
12 oz clear bottle from Mexico courtesy of Butters. 4.0 ABV. Corn, sulphur and pale malt aromas with touch of skunk. Clear pale light straw color with almost no head. Corn and pale malt flavor with a hint of earhy hops. Light body, well carbonated, clean finish with a hint of hop bitterness.

Bottle. typical watery mexican pilsener/lager. Light malt aroma, very little hops, fizzy head.

NJBeerman013 (1032) - Hamilton Twp., New Jersey, USA - NOV 17, 2010
Bottle. Had this on a trip to Playa del Carmen Mexico. Light and refreshing, but somewhat watered down and washed out. It was worth a try, but I will stick with Corona or Dos Equis next time down there.

12oz Bottle: Wow, I feel special - only the 20th person to rate this fine example of the Mexican style. Har har! My notes for this say "SAME!!!" so I urge you to read back a review or two to find my rankings of other illustrious Corona-brethren. Right around here was when the joke arose in response to "how does it taste?" The answer, of course, being "like a Mexican beer".
