Not too bad. This followed a Pacifico on a scorching afternoon after I reffed a bunch of high school kids in a soccer game. Not as good as the Pacifico but not horrible. Ice cold with some lime slices and its OK.

A light copper color. The smell of corn malt, and yeast. The taste is corn, yeast and very watery. The body of the beer is loose. No finish it is a so so beer

When in Mexico...this is better to drink than the water. Not by much though.

Bottle. Pours golden with little head. Taste is fairly typical; lightly sweet malt with very little hops. Negra Modelo is much better.

One of the better South American beers I have had. Stronger flavor fuller body. Not a bad partner for a taco night.

12 oz bottle split with Jredmond. Body is Gold. Aroma is similair to a dogs butthole, but the taste is extremely smooth and very refreshing.

Drank from the can at an outdoor concert. Little aroma, but pleasant. The flavor is respectable as Mexican beers go. Was definitely the best beer choice at the concert and I would choose it again.
