Mexican piss. But it reminds me of the beach, so that brings it’s value up about a quarter of a point (I don’t like the beach). I just drank it out of the can, no need in dirtying a glass.

33 cl bottle. Bland faintly hoppy aroma. Golden in colour with a white head that disappears quickly. Bland hoppy lager taste. not unpleasant but very run of the mill. Dry hoppy finish.

Light in color and all else. This is also a horrible brew. A little straw in flavor and aroma.

It’s a pretty simple brew, with a nice sweet finish. There is really not much to it, but it’s pretty refreshing. It would really hit the spot on a hot summer day.

Bottle from my dad. Pours a typical pale golden with a white head. Pale malt and straw aroma. Light bodied with lively carbonation. Bready and corn flavors, but with a detectable amount of bitterness. One of the better mexican pale lagers.

Straw color with thing sudsy white head. Sweet malt aroma. Flavor is not bad for this style of beer. Slightly crisp and sweet. A little caramel a little yeasty. Drinkable, its no negra though.

Bottle/can. Average pale lager. nothing "especial". Certainly drinkable, especially with spicy foods or during the hot summer.
