Nothing great, but an inoffensive Mexican macro. I vastly prefer this to Corona for its relatively light, bland, refreshing flavor. Perfect for making a michelada.

Bottle at after work drinks. Something has to make Corona seem like a premium beer I suppose.

Bottle. Exactly what you’d expect in a Mexican macro-lager. Thin, syrupy, mildest hops, not bitterness. Pretty interchangeable with Corona. Bros love this kind of thing.

This beer pours a light yellow with a small white head that dissipates rather quickly. Almost no carbonation and slick on the palate with little aftertaste. Not too much to write home about, but not extremely horrible either.

At an Gall & Gall in wormerveer, bottle 330ml, golden, thin head, grainy and sweet, a bit better than other mexicans, some taste there! and not bad.

So I made a mistake, I accidentally reviewed the Guatemalan Sol beer, I actually drank this one. Carbonated light gold beer. Very easy drinking, goes down smooth. A bitter hops, but unoffensive taste. Give me a Quilmes instead.

Yellow with a fragmented head. Aroma of corn and brewmash. The flavour is metallic and sour. Watery and just plain out "blah".

This was the beer of coice in Playa Del Carmen Mexico. With not a Corona to be found (Mexicans don’t drink that swill) and no good American or imports on hand at our resort this was the beer to drink. Very light straw color. Corn and alcohol taste. Had it with both a lime and without. It wasn’t my type of beer but I have to say it was definitely better than Corona.
