Ungstrup (23981) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - SEP 23, 2002
A yellow beer with an OK head. It has an aroma of Agave and flowers and tastes of the same, though a bit like additives.

Papsoe (22983) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JUL 22, 2005
(Bottle 33 cl) The French have this thing about adding alcohol to their beer. I’ve had both a cognac-beer, an absinthe-beer, a Grand Marnier-beer but this tequila-beer was one of the first in this style - although not exactly anything to take much pride in. Pilsener golden with a creamy head that leaves a pretty lacework. The flavour? Well, tequilaish I reckon - but cloyingly sweet and artificial. No real pleasure. 220705

33 cL clear bottle. Pours clear and yellow with a lacing white head. Lime aroma. Flavour is sweet and light lime. Ends lime flavoured and light citric to acidic.

oh6gdx (16047) - Vasa, FINLAND - OCT 9, 2006
Bottled. Very skunked horrible aroma when opening the bottle. Once poured into glass it’s mainly lemon and some slight hops in the nose. Colour is pale golden and the head is almost non-existant. Flavour is lemon and slight hints of hoppyness. I don’t find any tequila in this one.

Bottle at Københavnske Øldage 2009. Clear yellow coloured with a medium sized white head. Fruity aroma of lime. Fruity flavour of lime with notes of hops. Watery. Sodapop.

MiP (11783) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - JAN 10, 2006
Bottle. Golden colour, semi-stable white head. Artificial lime aroma, reminding me of radler. Sweet flavour, also quite close to radler. There is also some slightly unplesant alcohol flavour, more like vodka than tequila.

fiulijn (10421) - Como, ITALY - SEP 8, 2003
Unreal aroma; fake taste, sweet, lemony. Disgusting aftertaste. You really need spicy food to drink this!

KimJohansen (10339) - Copenhagen V, DENMARK - MAR 30, 2008
Clear golden with medium head. Sweet fruity aroma with notes of lime. Sweet flavor with loads of lime. Not that much of Tequila in it.

Dedollewaitor (10298) - Odense, DENMARK - OCT 1, 2007
Pale see through with no head. Some malt & barely no hops. A bit sour & citric. Perhaps refreshing in 45 degress! I dunno?!?
