Modelo Especial

I got a bomber of this at tapwerks in OKC last fall. It was the special. Everything was very average, so that is how I rated. Not half the beer Negra modelo is.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a golden yellow with a small white head, fair lacing. Aroma initially was skunk (thought I had a bad beer) but got better, smells like grain, with a bit a doughy yeast aroma. Light body with an initial sweet aroma, a bit salty, finished somewhat acidic/metallic.

12oz, bottle, extremely boring, easy to slam, smells like macro, tastes like macro.. really boring.

Clear bottle poured a clear gold with a small disapating white head. Aromas of straw, graininess, light citrus and a hint of skunk. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of light straw, light graininess and hint of citrus with a crisp clean finish.

wow, this is really a terrible beer. I expected slightly better, consider the negra modelo is okay for a mexican beer. Pours flat, mild malt aroma with some skunkiness, malt is even less apparent in the taste.

No head skunk smell. Now I see why you put a lime in this.... I will drink this though ice cold with fruit in it while mowing the lawn...

light malt and hoopy aroma. head is 1 finger if it lasts that long. no alcohol taste. watery texture, watery after taste. pours yellow on the darker side. very light beer.

Bottle- Tom & Patty’s. Suprised that this was pretty good. Was expecting funky / skunky, but actually the aroma was pleasant and the flavor was actually full-bodied. Not overly complex, but did have nice malt up-front and some slight bitterness at the end. Won’t have this every day, but a good hot-weather summertime beer. Bottle was unique.
