This seems to be Millers take on Corona. What I don’t get though is why any one would want to copy a shit beer like Corona. This is a perfect example of marketing having too much control.

Scary green bottle. Aroma very citrusy which overpowers anything beelike about this. Very sweet immediately with a fast disapating taste of sugar and citrus that ends in just cold fizzy water. Reminds me moreso of Jones Soda. This is only being consumed because it’s a leftover from last weekend BBQ and we ran out of Busch. Yes, we drank teh leftover Busch before this. Someone please pass me something from Blue Point before I get out of hand...

I bought this on a Labor Day trip to the Outer Banks of North Carolina as a potential alternative to Corona. At home I generally like a big Belgian or stout but on the beach, gotta have Cerveza! As I opened the first one, I noted a nose similar to a Corona with a hint of lime. I poured into the glass and noted a bit of a lighter color than you would find in other light Mexican beer. To this point, I felt as if I found a cheaper alternative with no worries of cutting my fingers while slicing limes after the first 3 or 4! Then I took the first taste...not exactly what I had anticipated. The taste was closer to a weak Zima or Sprite. While it was refreshing on a hot beach day, it was a bit disappointing based upon the product description. It gets some credit for being a day at the beach thirst quencher but I think I will be returning to my old faithful Corona the next trip.

A really good tasting beer. Not too strong and just about the right added taste. Different from other beers... Which is nice to have.

UPDATED: DEC 8, 2007 Poured pale yellow with a foamy white head. Chemical nose and flavor that reminded me of an energy drink. Somewhere between Gatorade and Tang. Nasty. Nothing about this seemed the least bit natural or refreshing.

Aroma is wet paper with some lime. Pale gold color with a white head that ringed. Rather thin bodied, with fizzy carbonation. Lime soft drink flavor. Not much else to say.

Bottle, courtesy of buddies wife. Pours pale yellow with frothy white head. Aroma is sweet malt and very citrusy and lemon-lime. This stuff is like sprite beer. Flavor is more of the same, almost completely dominated by the lemon-lime tartness balanced with soda pop sweetness. Fortunately this one doesn’t share the same artificial and disgusting lime like presence that tequiza had but it is still overwhelming. It was refreshing though, however I’d never drink another as long as I live.
