Negra Modelo

Aroma light caramel, light vague fruitiness, flavor some caramel and toffee, a little brown sugar, light fruitiness

It looks alright, but had very little flavor. No maltiness, no crispness, just bland as it gets.

325mL bottle from the LCBO. Pours a nice amer colour with a medium off-white head. Aroma is a little odd, some okay tosted caramalt mixed in with looming macro-ness. Taste is actually decent, more of the toasty caramalt, which I like, but with a bit of a dull and unimpressive aftertaste. Nice slick almost oily, but not really, mouth-feel. I’m glad it’s not a huge let down, but I do wish I had more to say about it. The truth is there really isn’t much to this beer, therefore not a whole lot can be said. Probably the best Mexican beer I’ve ever had, but that’s not really saying a whole lot. It’s bland, inoffensive, and a flattering imitation of a real Vienna. As it warms is seems to get a little worse, with similar macro off flavours as you’d get in something like a corona. Lame effort but I’d still take it over a crappy pale lager from this brewer. I can’t believe this is the last available ’Vienna’ in my area. Weak LCBO, seriously weak. Get your s*** together.

This is good beer. Not great, good. I go along with the few reviews before mine. Caramel and lime. Great on a hot day. This is good beer, try it if it is on sale or during happy hour at your local mex restaraunte. Cheers!

Small tinted head. Served too cold and with lime. Like a watery lager with some drops of brown color. No hints of malt or hops. OK on a really hot day or to balance a really hot meal.
