Strong aroma- very "cat urineish." BUT, taste is much much better than smell. Looks nice in the bottle

Modelo Especial is "refridgerator beer" of the Barcelo Premium resort in the Mayan Riviera, Mexico. I drank plenty of cans of Modelo throughtout my stay. Apple jucie appearance, salty flavor, an overall good hot weather, take me down the beach beer.

Pale gold. very fizzy. Quite a strong toasty aroma. Taste has citric notes and some smokiness. A bland finish. Not that bad.

Bottle. Pour is faint golden, almost clear yellow. Aroma is hard to pick up, but what I got was malt. Body is fuller than expected, and taste was pretty faint.

This beer tasted like rubber. Not very pleasant. Gave 4 out of the six pack away so I didn’t have to throw it away.

Pours a light golden. The head is small, dense and creamy. Also the duration is fully lasting despite the small size. The aroma is faint and lighlty malty. The flavor has a faint maltiness with a weak finish.

Not much taste or body to this beer, but it’s still at least somewhat refreshing after a long day of traveling in Mexico.
