Backlog Mexico january 2011 Bought/tasted at combined bar/shop The Beer Box in Playa del Carmen, tasted on bottle. Amber color, good foam Medium body & complexity Some sweet flavours, but well balanced Very enjoyable

355ml brown bottle. Deep gold, foamy white cap with a bit of lacing. Nose has grains and caramel. Taste has caramel and tossed malts and grains. Toasty dry finish, average body and carbonation. Pretty basic Vienna, but drinkable.

355ml bottle pours amber in color with a small off-white head that leaves some thin lacing on the glass. Aroma is caramel malts with some grassy hops. Taste is light caramel malty sweetness with some grassy hop bitterness. Light to medium body with some adequate carbonation. Slightly above average amber lager which is worth trying at least once.

A clear amber colored beer, with a light beige head. The aroma of malt with some caramel notes. The taste has fruits, some caramel, dry and in the back a small biiter, overall flat. The aftertaste is dry with some sweet and a very small bitter.

Bottle. Pours amber with a small, white head. Aroma is sweet caramel malts with some fruitiness. Taste is again sweet caramel malts ending with some floral hoppiness at the end. Palate is light and carbonated. Alright, but nothing that I’d buy again.

(12oz bottle thanks to bu11zeye) clear copper with a film of soapy white bubbles. Nose of caramel and sweet grain. Taste of old sweet grain, very subdued beer in general.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Amber coloured brew with an toffee sweet taste and almost no bitternesh at all. Thank to an Austrian emperoor in Mexico the Vienna-style lives on.

I haven’t a friggin’ clue as to whereever I got this bottle. So, if you bestowed it upon my person, know ye to be thanked! Small beige head over copper-orange beer. Mainly chocolatey aroma, toffee, sweet with a point of moccha in the background. Dry, caramelly, bit oxydized flavour, very watery flavour and utterly watery texture, thin as few. Nose promised at least something, but the rest proved a lot of water (under the bridge).

Bottle 355ml. @ home.
