22 oz bottle. The beer is a major brand drinker with not a lot of flavor. The body is gold with a thin head. The beer has good carbonation.

12oz bottle in a shaker. Pours light golden. Aroma of pale malts, very light hops, and tin. Flavor the same. Light. Not good.

Can tastes like corny bit sweet no real hop taste it’s mexico version of labbet blue or some other cheap gas station beer

Very ordinary, but drinkable Mexican beer, although in the 1 litre bottles it is often flat by the end.

Can@Caliente Cab Co on Bleecker, 19/12/11. Wet and lifeless. Citronella, corn and fizzy honey. Bereft of malt of hop flavours. Light almond, grassy aroma. Glue and glycerol. Excruciatingly bland.

12oz bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a clear gold with a minimal white head. Aroma of corn and water. Taste is about the same. Light bodied and thin textured. Fizzy carbonation and no finish. Overall, pretty bad. The only redeeming quality is this one was free.

Had this February 2011 sitting by a pool in Cozumel from a bottle to an exotic plastic cup. Not much to it other than some malt and slight bitter, but who gives a rip. I was sitting in 80 degree weather when it was 10 degrees back home checking out some fine women in bikinis pounding these bad boys. Had this and the Sol together, like the Sol a little bit more...could have been due to the setting, but seriously unless you are at the pool in nice weather why the hell else would you be drinking these!

0.33 bottle at 1.30€. Yellow beer with a compact white head with a farr lacing, unexpected from Mexican beer. Strange nose, there’s something sharp. Aroma has citrusy notes maybe some apple, nothing more. A touch of hops in the dry finish. Slightly harsh, watery body, fizzy carbonation. Maybe a little better than Corona.

33cl bottle. Golden beer with minimal and quickly diminishes white head. Aroma is sweet and corny. Flavour is similar as aroma with a final slightly bittery. Carbonation is soft. Body is light.
