Pint on tap at Princess Pub, San Diego. Clear amber beer with a thin white head. Grain nose, sweet grain taste. Finish is a little sour. Full body, smooth texture. A step up from macro-Lager but only one step.

12oz can in the sunshine by the pool at my daughters place in Laguna Hills, poured into a Temecula Football Club straight sided sleeve glass on 8th January 2023. It washed down a small packet of 'Cheetos', not too sure I could have drunk it without them to be honest. Mini-haze to the dull golden body, no head to speak off. No aroma or flavour either really, typical Mexican style Lager then!

Got in a trade with RaulMondesi. 12 ounce can into lager glass, canned on 4/18/2018. Pours slightly hazy pale golden yellow color with a 1 finger fairly dense and rocky white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of cracker, corn, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. A touch of fruity aromas, but not overwhelming. Nice and pleasant aromas of pale malt/corn and light earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of cracker, corn, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light herbal, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, corn, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness and balance of pale malt/corn and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance; and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Very clean on lager flavors, minimal fruit notes present. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy, and fairly sticky balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.5%. Overall this is a very good Mexican adjunct lager. All around nice robustness and balance of pale malt/corn and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Very flavorful and not watery for the ABV. Very clean pale malt/grains, and nice earthy hop presence for the style. Not overdone on corn adjuncts. A very enjoyable offering, and well made style example.

Sample at the taproom. Clear pale golden color with a thin white head that burns away quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lace. Aroma of malt, mild hops and fruit. Light-bodied with flavors of grainy malt, mild floral hops and fruit. The finish is mildly bitter with a short hop and fruit aftertaste. Average overall.
