UPDATED: MAY 22, 2013 Draught at Frankfurt, Polanco, Mexico City. Clear nut brown, mid sized head. Caramelly nose. Mid sweet with light-medium body and clean mouthfeel. Fruit, caramel and, wait - that’s it. Perhaps slight boiled vegetables. Low bitterness. Perhaps not the most exciting beer in the worldm, but a reasonable drinkable and clean macro amber lager.

Amber color with big head. Light malt aroma. Very weak mouthfeel, with light caramel and watery finish.

(12oz bottle, from Swalden28) Pours an amber body with a small off-white head. Aroma of hot garbage, metal, and apple. Flavor of cardboard, apple, and corn. Just plain nasty…

bottle at home tasting ... copper ... thin white lacing ... sweet tofeee grassy malts lager nose ... huge fizzyness .. sweet toffee malts ... light priklyness

For the price of five pesos a bottle and the good taste it has, this is a relly good beer. Actually one of my favorite Mexican beers. Bottle. Clear dark amber colour with a big mostlydiminishing head. Aroma of caramel and toasted malt. Flavour is soft with toasty maltiness, caramel and slightly hoppy. Soft finish with a bit of caramel and malt.

Bottle (sampled: Mexico City 25.2.04)
Bark copper color. Taste sweetish malt. Short finish.

Bottle from Hi-Time. Pours ruddy dark amber with a very transient head. Moderate malty aroma. Little hop noticeable. Med + body. Flavor is malty in a lightly roasty way. Could pass for Oktoberfest. It’s not exactly dry, and it’s moderately bitter. Could do for a session beer.

A reddish copper beer with a thin off white head. In aroma, clasaic lager with mineral notes, and light sulfur. In mouth, a watery caramel with grassy german hops, soapy and mineral. Bottle from Oxxo, 10 pesos.

Amber pour with a light lazy off-white head. The aroma has a little bit of cola-esque sweetness. A bit of caramel and brown sugar over some industrial type malts. A little bit of lightly metallic character on the back of the palate. Oddly sweet on the front - can’t say I’m a fan of this one.

Bottle thanks...no, from... Swalden28. Pours with an amber body and a white head. Aroma of sugar, corn, apple and dryer sheets. Taste is sugar, ass, and apple. Fizzy, dry and altogether undrinkable.
