Bleh. Tastes like corona only more water and stale. I don’t have anything good to say about this beer... Not even on a hot summer day when it is ice cold.

Light straw color; Light body; Aroma of hops and cereal; Flavor of light malt & hops and some grain; Fairly bland and watery as to be expected; Not terrible - about the same as a Corona for me.

Bottle, The Peacock, Liverpool. Even with a chunk of lime rammed down its neck this is still watery piss.

An okay beer. Just like any other generic Mexican brew. The best thing about this beer is the packaging - which is, admittedly, excellent. As for taste, one must be in the mood for it in order to truly enjoy it. Better than Corona, but still in the same ballpark.
