33cl bottle. Pours loaded gold, transparent, with fine white foam. Aroma is bready, cereal, honey. Body is average, with moderate carbonation. Taste is medium sweet. Final is a little weak.

Light gold body with white head. Thin white head. Light lagery aroma, no skunkiness. Pleasant malt taste with a light clean finish. This was a draught version, not a can or bottle.

On tap at The Tap (Yakima), pours a clear blonde with a medium white head. Aroma is quite vegetal, with herbal notes and skunky vegetables. Flavour is quite vegetal, with straw and herbaceous vegetal character. Pretty rank. Could be worse, but not a whole lot worse.

Color dorado orina, espuma blanca poco persistente. Huele muy débilmente, casi nada, a malta. Sabor apenas presente, destaca una poco agradable nota metálica, es apenas amarga, ligero regustillo dulce, cuerpo ligero, crujiente , acuosa, simple...La nota metálica queda en el paladar hasta buen rato después de haberla tomado Ningún atributo bueno a destacar a excepción de lo bonita que queda dentro de su envase. No me gusta esta cerveza

Remember drinking this in my formative years at Archibald Simpsons spoons. Straight from the clear bottle. It is clear lager yellow as one would expect. The aroma is grain husks, damp grass, touch of cardboard, quite sweet actually, sweetcorn, cheap doughy white bread, rich tea biscuit and custard creams. The taste is fairly crisp and dry upfront, more so than I thought there would be, then it sweetens up, sugary, doughy white bread, rich tea biscuit, grain, husk, wet cardboard, sweetcorn and soda water with a dry finish. Average body and moderate, fizzy carbonation. There is certainly a lot worse out there imo. Simple, but drinkable enough (when cold anyhow).

Good for a readily available Mexican lager. Slightly sweet, not bitter at all, good for adding lubrication to the spicy dish you’re eating. Eh.

Clear and golden with a small, bubbly white head and just a hint of grassy, sweet malt on the nose. Crisp and fresh, light bodied, it's a little bit sweet, a little bit grassy/malty and a decent enough thirst quencher with a Mexican meal
