Well, I just empty my cardboard case with 12 bottles of this brew in it. One for each month of the year I guess. 2003 Noche Buena Special Edition. Indeed is one-of-a-kind beer, otherwise the brewery will make it all year around. Creamy, Sweet, Refreshing. I love it!

This beer is one of the best Mexican beers. I am not generally a fan of dark beers like this, but for this I’ll make an exception.

a wonderful seasonal brew that is fairly hard to find, but absolutely one of the best brews from Mexico!

Tastes like a classic american dark lager, toasty, biscuity with just the right balance of noble hops to offset the sweetness. The only negative is the slightly sulfury nose. Overall great session beer during the holidays and goes good with all types of festive feasts, from the ususual turkey and trimmings to classic mexican dishes like posole and tamales.

Great beer!, seasonal but great. String, dark and strong. it’s name is taken after the flower "Noche Buena" and because is seasonal: Winter, you know Christmas Eve.

Actually a decent vienna. I bit dark for the style in a deep amber brown color with a thick tan head. Smooth feel with both a munich malt sweetness and a dry hoppy finish.
