this is a fairly watery Mexican yellow beer... only good if you douse it with tons of lime juice... pretty bitter and metallic

12 oz bottle. No aroma, little flavor and near zero body. Nothing more to say.

The budweiser of Mexico. Need i say more?? this beer is repugnant, and if its anything shorter than almost frozen then it is straight up the worst beer i have ever had. Oh i almost forgot about the smell. That nauseating, rotten smell. Simply disgusting

Can (473ml). Hooked up with this bad boy by biegaman. Clear weak gold, bubbly with a bright white head. Smells like corn oil and sugary apple juice - but not as bad as some; light stale generic bitterness lingering in there. The taste is surprisingly clean - very light and a bit stale, but not all that corny - well, some as it warms. Watery, flat body, lightning-fast finish, a slightly harsh weedy aftertaste. Its crispness (despite the flatness) is mildly charming - still not very good

Well it’s from Mexico so my expectations were not high. No disernable hop sensation at all, slightly sweet and smooth to the point of boring. Not the worst from south of the border but close.

473 mL can from the LCBO, served cold in a tulip glass. A Mexican tulip glass. Cristal del tulipan. JN 28/07.

App.: Pale golden, clear, small, loose meringue. Aroma: Cereal and corn, light herbal hops, faint tang, green straw. Palate: Medium-light body, soft carbonation. Flav.: Very light – hints of cereal and maybe some hops; watery, yet typical, “Mexican” flavour; nice and smooth; surprising alcohol presence at the end.

A fair (and cheaper) alternative to Corona Extra (minus the lovely clear bottle that makes you look oh so cool and sophistimacated as you peruse the patio at the local bar, straw hat on head, terrible racoon-eye sunburn on face).

Drank this on the beach on some unnamed island off Puerto Vallarta, after doing some snorkeling. It was hot (the weather, not the beer), and it was cold (the beer, not the weather), and this was perfectly acceptable for the surroundings. Other than that, I would never drink it again.
