First brewed in Tacuba, Mexico in 1925, Modelo Negra, formerly Negra Modelo, is a medium-bodied lager with slow-roasted caramel malts brewed for a rich, smooth taste. Brewed longer to enhance its flavors, Modelo Negra redefines "Dark Beer" because it is exceptionally drinkable and remarkably smooth. This Munich Dunkel-style Lager is brewed with galena and super galena hops as well as caramel malt, black malt and two and six row malt barley. These ingredients are meticulously brewed together to give Modelo Negra that bright, rich, amber hue and that iconic, medium-bodied flavor.

Sample from 335 ml. bottle. Clear, amber golden colour with a thin, White head. Sweet aroma with caramel malts, fruits, lightly toasted notes. Taste is light bitter. Medium body with a creamy texture. Short, sweet finish with toasted notes and caramel malts. Okay. Ish.

Bottle from the Emperor, Cambridge. Soulless beer in a soulless pub. Light to mid brown, some visible carbonation but no head. Slight aroma of cherries and chocolate malt. Sweet malty taste, fairly artificial. Well-carbonated if watery body. Caramel extract finish. Not great.

Draft pour pint, garnished with lime. Pours a dark amber with no head. I remember always going to this at Mexican restaurants in my earlier drinking days because it was the one Mexican beer with flavor. I love Mexican food, especially spicy, so I’m no stranger to the usual lagers. High carb here. Majority malt flavor. Nutty finish. Not bad.
