Onslow (174), Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA May 13, 2009 Pour form a 12 oz can. Moderate white head that quickly fizzles. Pale yellow color. Aroma is combination of malt with grassy hops. Weak malt flavor with a slight astringent, slightly hoppy finish. Thin and watery mouthfeel with big bubble carbonation. Crisp and refreshing with a bit of character that sets it apart from the pack, if only by a few steps. fidelis83 (707), Clinton, Iowa, USA May 8, 2009 Pours pale gold with a 1 finger quickly fading white head. Aroma is sweet malt, a little corn, grass and a little skunkiness. Flavor was about the same. Palate is thin with a watery feel and neutral finish. Overall it’s a mexican pale lager, can’t expect much, but it is better than many that fit that bill. tokyogoat (505), San Diego, California, USA May 7, 2009 My first beer on this vacation in mexico.
Ordered with ceviche and poured into a frozen mug.
Pours straw yellow, almost clear, with a small white sudsy head.
No smell hardly at all.
Taste is very bland, very watery, but.... ...I kind of love it. It doesnt have anything offensive to it whatsoever. It tastes like beer water, and in the heat of Cabo, I appreciate this beer.
I actually like it more than most of the major mexican releases. BeerBaron617 (306), Novi, Michigan, USA May 6, 2009 This is corona in a fancier package. period. Unfortunately my dad brought it home, so it’s the only beer in the house until this weekend, and I really can’t pass up free beer. I guess if you actually like corona, you would probably like this, I didn’t even know it was made by the same folks, but that makes a lot of sense. Anywho, Cheers! Changed (161), Ithaca, New York, USA May 4, 2009 12 oz. Purchased to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Didn’t expect good beer and I didn’t get it. Pours piss yellow, no head, no lacing. Smells like skunk mixed with swine flu. Taste is the same. Maybe like watered down Becks. Happy Cinco de Mayo; Mexican beer sucks wangs. 184601 (143), Mexicali, Mexico May 4, 2009 I had a lot of bad experiences with Modelo domestics , i have been reluctant to have this particular one for a long time,regardless i live 50 steps within a Modelo-owned quick store.However yesterday i proved that i was wrong this is a surpringly good brew, quite descent it has that Modelo character that i loathe but just from bad memories,this one its crisp,has plenty of white head, grssy hop bitterness,very noted alcohol its quite low,relatively,and that its pretty much.NICE ONE MoDog (909), Griffith, Indiana, USA Apr 30, 2009 12oz can. Served in a shaker. Poured a clear golden color with a short-lived off-white head. No lacing. The aroma was sweet malts, corny, grainy. Bland and lifeless. The flavor was similar. Mildly sweet with a light graininess. Finished clean with no aftertaste. Medium-bodied. Light to moderate carbonation. Much better mouthfeel than most fizzy yellow stuff. Bland and boring, but somewhat drinkable. Elwood (647), Leesburg, Virginia, USA Apr 29, 2009 12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear gold with the thinnest of foamy, white heads. Ah, the sweet smell of corn and other adjuncts! It pairs nicely with the bit of skunk I smell too. Medium-high carbonation with a very light, watery mouthfeel. Light grain and corn notes on the palate paired with the kiss of hops. In fact, I am pretty sure they just waved the hops over the kettle while this was "brewing". Clean, short finish. Better known as carbonated water. On the good side, it isn’t offensive in any way except the lack of flavor.
