(340 ml can labelled 4.5% ABV)
On September 15, 2005 at restaurant "Delicias del Mar" in Monterrey, Mexico.
Clear pae straw yellow color, white head. Malty and vegetable scent and taste. Medium low mouthfeel, rather low bitterness. The restaurant was very nice food wise, not so great beer wise.

473ml can from the LCBO. Well, not sure what I expected I would really get out of this. It is a crappy pale lager kind of day I guess. After the pour I noticed right away some signs of skunk. I am not sure how a canned product could actually develope a skunk aspect to it, but somehow those crafty Mexicans figured out a new way to make crappy beer, which I guess in itself is somewhat of an accomplishment. Flavour is startlingly ok. Very corny sweet with some, salt (?) adding a bizarre sense of balance that does not seem quite right? There is something weird in the aftertaste that is almost Belgian-like. Refreshingly not overly carbonated, again, an accomplishment considering the style/National peers in the beer world. Kind of a weird beer, but hey, I will take it today. The Imperial German-esque Eagle is a pretty bizarre choice for a logo, which mildly offends me as a history geek. Minus one point just for that.

Yellow pale cristal color, no head, steel malty aroma, no flavor is very fresh and crisy, no taste, but in the beach with a little drops of lemon will be refresh your mouth

12oz can. Pours super pale yellow with a fizzy, white, sticky head, some lace. Smell grainy malty, light and crisp. Less sweet and corny than other macros. Tastes malty and grainy, slightly sweet. Thin body, crisp carbonation.

24 oz can. Classic macro clear gold body and fizzy white head. Aroma of nutra sweet over cream corn and wet bread. Luckily this beer has barely any flavor at all. Mostly watery bodied with slight fizzy carbonation. My first Mexican rating and God willing one of my last.
