Bottle. Pale yellow. A bit fizzy. Maltyish. Absolute pish. Everything that has been said already about this being shit, i agree. Waste of water.

A crappy version of an already crap beer; Corona. Both beg for lime, but this one needs it direly.

Bottle sample at Toronto’s Festival of Beer 2008. I had this alongside a sample of Des Equis Lager, and honestly couldn’t tell the difference between them. Both were bland and yellow. At least it wasn’t skunky...

I see there’s also a light version of this beer. WTF is that? How can it get any more light than this? Cool commercials about the beach and oceans and shit, but this is pretty lousy beer. Mexican beer for chicks.

clear gold. medium sized white fizzy head. skunky, corn, grain aroma. "has a sparkling gold hue and exciting aroma and flavor of malt". need i say more?

0.33 l bottle. grassy fresh slightly malty. with lime slice nice on a hot day for thirst.

Plain pale boring lager. Unflavourful and tasteless. An aroma of corn and grass. A taste of corn malts and light hops. Overall, this beer is one that I wouldn’t suggest trying.

After 2 weeks with this as the official beer at the resort I was Uber-tired of this. Plain Mexican beer. Very light taste with a llittle bit of a harsh edge. Not as good as Corona. At least OXXO’s had some almost frozen cans on ice.
