1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Yeah, malt liquor Mexican style. Sol with a high alcohol flavor that does not stand up well in the light malt.

Other than a non-offensive aroma, this stuff is garbage. A strong malt liquor type of flavor. It’s so bad that I can’t even use it combat the spiciness of the chinquinquillas I’m eating. Ick.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Clear coloured body with a very thin white head. Aroma of metal, strong malt, alcohol and a bit of hops. Light-bodied; Nice malty flavour with cardboard, nuts and a light alcohol kick noticealbe in the taste. Aftertaste is mellow and refined - nice! Overall, one of the best Mexican beers I’ve had - definitely worth trying if you can find it! I sampled this 355 mL bottle purchased from 7-11 in Ciudad de Mexico (Mexico City), Mexico on 04-May-2007.

Reminded me of a malt liquor, but that was in part to the huge size of the bottle. Couldn’t get through the whole thing. Alcohol was a bit noticable, but not horribly overpowering. Decent as a novelty.

UPDATED: JAN 30, 2006 What’s the deal with this beer?, It is blonde but you can notice some green highlights on it. I don’t know what they meant to do with this beer, but it changes its flavor with every bottle.

Bottle: Couldn´t really understand the ´brava´ part on this one. Flat, stale and overall poor.

This rating may not be right but picture this .... I’m in mexico sitting on the balcony it’s 10 at night, smoking a cigar and drinking this beer. The waves are relentless crashing on the beach I look over to the hotel next to us and there is 4 young ladies getting ready to go to the bar by trying on every outfit they own. What are you going to do sit back enjoy the cigar you have and watch the show, Life is good at this moment in time. Oh yea the beer it is very drinkable I would do this night over again.

If Sol is bad... this beer is disgusting, it pours a very flat greenish gold. The nose is humid corn husks, old bananas and a bit of fake flowery hops. It leaves a oily palate, a belly full of CO2 and a bad headache. It was not what i expected i thought they were finnaly bring a difrent beer out in Mexico, with the name i thougt maybe a Strong ale... not even close, its a bad light beer.
