12 oz can poured. Enjoyed while watching football. Enough macro lager beer ads on the TV, I decided to open up this one. I've probably had several Modelo pours over the years, but this can actually was purchased in Mexico, so it seems like the most legit way to rate it. Clean and clear golden juice pour. Apple like grains on the nose. Flavor agrees. Straw, apple. Clean, and slightly thicker than your average pale lager. Refreshing enough. No flavors that are offputting. There's settings for beers like this, and I found a decent one. Not bad.

12oz bottle. Clear amber, no real head to speak of. Some citrus and grass notes, sweet palate, but otherwise not much too write about

Clear bright gold topped by a small white head. Mild zesty malt nose. Flavor is thin, grainy malt with lots of carbonation. Mild hops in finish. Best served ice cold on a hot day.
