Bottle, an amber-coloured beer with a mediumlightbrwon herad, non-lacing, disappearing fast. Not a clear, but also not a hazy beer, a bit inbetween the two. The smell is light grainy, light malty and very weak. The taste is light grainy, some caramel notes and a light bitter finish. A very light beer, too light in my opinion, but good drinkble. Overall nothing very special about this one.

Poors white long lasting foam, aroma is light caramel with a hint of toasted bread. A hint of rasiny hop aroma. Brown redish color. Carbonation is medium to high. Light sour, medium bitter.

Backlog Mexico january 2011 Bought/tasted at combined bar/shop The Beer Box in Playa del Carmen, tasted on bottle. Dark color, ok foam Medium body and complexity Pretty ok

Aroma prácticamente nulo. Ligero a maltas, sin embargo el poco aroma es a consecuencia de los adjuntos. A la vista es una cerveza color ambar y a la luz practicamente traslucida. Alta carbonataciony nula espuma. Sabor altamente picoso debido a su alta carbonatacion. Esta cerveza no es para nada de las mejores, más bien apta para quitar la sed. Al paladar se deja sentir su malta un poco amarga con un final sencillo, confirmando su alta carbonatacion.

a very tasty brew... for a macro obcousrse, jaja, . Pours brown, with no head, aroma has low intensity and presents notes of roasted malts. Its a refreshing beer. The flavor has notes of roasted malts and is slightly bitter.

UPDATED: MAR 4, 2012 Bottle. Amber golden colour with a white head. Standard lager beer, nice and easy drinkable. Moderate malty and hoppy aroma and flavour.

Bottle in Mexico City. Dark and refreshing. One of the better macrobrews in Mexico.

One of the best macro´s i´ve ever tried, malt and caramel notes in the flavor, medium to low body, and some hop present

After the beer was served in the glass there was found a lasting quantity wall adhesive white foam collar which was fine and even of structure. The beer also contained much carbonic acid in the glass. The beer has a clear brown color and a watery taste. The after tast of the beer is hoppy bitter with a roasted malty touch . This beer smells to malty.

I enjoyed this brew in a little cafe outside the Mayan Ruins of Tulum Mexico. Pours a clear almost amber color with a smallish bubbly white head that dissipates quickly and leaves minimal lace. Wow there is something in the aroma here other than corn and dms! Darker malts may actually be present here. Sweet malty aroma gives some hints of caramel, and lightly toasted bread. Taste is malty and a little sweet with hints of caramel and cocoa. Very little if any hops are found in this brew. Light body, heavy level of carbonation, syrupy/watery mouthfeel. I think I enjoyed this most out of all the light lagers I had on my trip. Or maybe it was the searing heat and the thirst I worked up climbing around the ruins for half the day. I enjoyed several of these before sailing away.

Pour amber very little head. Aroma hard to distinguish. Taste watery and dissatisfying. MF thin mild carb. Not very pleasant sad faces everywhere.
