Taste 10/9 can. Looks: Copper head with no body. Aroma: Some sweet malt and corn. Taste: Very weak bodied lager with low carbonation and finishes with a bite. You get exactly what you expect from it.

Can. I had this stuff when I visited Mexico a few years back. Bitter. Not so bad. Also tried it with beer salt. Might try a lime with it one day.

Not much going on here. Had this at a soccer game, and it got the job done. Move along.

[2494-20090926] Tap. Grassy hops grains aroma has light fruity straw notes. Clear, light brown orange body with a long-lasting creamy white head. Fruity straw hops flavour has a lot of hay. Medium body. Fair beer, nothing special after all.

Another crappy Mexican beer. For the money you could buy mucho crappy American beer. Save half your money and buy some PBR.

Bleck. This is Corona yet somehow worse. Same bottler, looks exactly the same, except less carbonated, more bitter and less refreshing. It’s clear with no head, a light smell and very little hop taste, along with some corn.

Light pale lager, as you’d expect but with a slight steeping of bitter present. Not really sessionable even.

Bottle. Straw yellow colour with a thin white head. Aroma and flavour of malt, hops and hay.
