Malty, some funk and a lil bit of skunk. Probably a good beer to enjoy over some tacos or chimichangas but also perhaps the worst beer I’ve had that is wrapped in gold foil. CHEERS

On tap at Shorty’s Comes to the table a fairly clear medium brown color with a smallish off white head that had all but dissipated before the glass got to my table. Smells of caramel and a hint of butterscotch with a faint grainy almost bready malt in the background. Very light floral hop aroma. The flavor is mostly caramel, but it tastes fake. Moderate sweet maltiness is offset with a burnt butterscotch and faint spicy hop flavor. Medium body with a moderate level of carbonation and a sweet mouthfeel. Vienna lager is quite a stretch here, dark adjunct lager fits better in my mind. Nothing horrible here, but the artificial taste and lack of complexity kills this one for me.

Cinco de Mayo tour thanks to the COOP. Pours with a decent off white head... the brew is clear darker amber. Clean toasty maltiness... a bit bready. Very drinkable... No real flaws. I should buy this more than once per year.

Pours dark amber with white head out of bottle. Same skunk aroma as most Mexican beers. Smooth taste and one of my favorite Mexican beers. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Light, or perhaps watery. Also a bit sweet. Tastes a bit like metal. Overall good beer.

12oz Bottle pours a reddy brown color. Good malty flavor but overly sweet. Not a lot else to say about it.
