Aroma is malts, lager yeast and beery. The flavor is malts, a hint of sweetness and relatively thin. Not nasty but could be better.

The best Beer Ever give it a chance , its kinda expensive but hey its worth it

Pretty clear amber color with practically no head. Very light bodied. Flat flavor, slightly bitter, slightly skunky but not unpleasantly. Not a bad beer for just drinking a beer.

Bottle at a Mexican restaurant in Lombard: No Way Jose. Served with a frosted mug. Meh. But at least he asked first if I wanted a lime. Nice brown pour, leaving a thin layer of foam. Smell from the bottle carries a good dose of brown malt. Taste also has mellow brown malts. I think there’s some corn, but it’s not that obvious. The mug is causing icy bits of beer to form, so I’m doing most of the rating from the bottle. There I get a good impression of a smooth amber beer with a clean lager finish and no graininess. A good palate cleanser for the really spicy salsa this place serves. Filling, and leaves a good "burp," too.

Easily the worst Mexican beer I’ve ever tasted. Perhaps I got a skunked sixer down in Sonoyta, Son., but this tasted solely of adjuncts and sandpaper, with little caramel or malt anywhere. Highly unrecommended.

Poured up a really nice amber with a decent head. Looked really good and made me all set to try this. The smell was a bit grainish with not much else to make me think this was going to be good. The taste was about the same with a hint of caramel in there. Very week, watery beer that might be good for taking care of a thurst on a hot summer day but other than that wouldn’t want it. So while it looks nice in a glass it is not really much for beer.

Aroma of corn tortillas. Taste is light, slightly malty, pretty bland. A definite sub-par brew.

AROMA: A malt forward smell - hints of caramel. APPEARANCE: A deep clear amber pour with a short lived tan head and minimal lacing. TASTE: There is not a strong presence here. A pleasant sweet pallet which seems watered down. Slight bitterness on the finish. A bready aftertaste exists. MOUTHFEEL: Medium-light bodied with minimal carbonation. OVERALL: Once I saw the beautiful dark amber pour, I'd hoped for more than the blandness I got. This wouldn't even go well with Mexican food. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Not bad as far as mexican corn based vienna style lagers go. A little more balanced and less sweet and corny than many of its counterparts, but still nothing to write home about.

Clear Amber with a thin beige head. Moderate amount of carbonation. Sweet malty aroma with a somewhat dry taste with good hop balance. Not sure why this beer is so expensive. Finishes clean and dry.
