12oz can. Was hoping a decent Mexican Lager, ended up with this crappy beer. Something like Cream Ale malt liquor. Disgusting off aroma sets the stage. Sweet, oddly so, suppose it is the corn/corn syrup. Really not that good. Ticker's lament.

Large tall can (1 US Pint and 3.2 oz's) in the afternoon sun, 5th January 2022, Laguna Hills California. First pour was clean and clear, the second was misty, both were gold in colour, no head on either. Malty/corn front to the nose and taste, light saltiness and a mini citrus twist in the flavour. Didn't take to it.

Got this from RaulMondesi. 19.2 ounce can into lager glass, canned on 3/5/2019. Pours slightly hazy/cloudy pale golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense and rocky off white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice dense spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of cracker, white bread dough, and lightly toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of corn, wood, peppercorn, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. A bit of fruity/yeasty corn aromas, but not overwhelming. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance of pale malt/grains and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of big cracker, white bread dough, and lightly toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of corn, wood, peppercorn, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Mild herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, wood, peppercorn, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great robustness and balance of pale malt/grains and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Very clean on lager flavors, with minimal fruity/yeasty notes. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness and carbonation. Medium-plus carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy, and fairly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 6.5%. Overall this is a delicious imperial Mexican lager. All around nice robustness and balance of pale malt/grains and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth and fairly crisp/clean/refreshing to drink with the mildly bitter/drying finish; nicely soft feel. Great clean pils malt/grain showcase, with nice earthy hop presence for the style. Mild on adjuncts. A very enjoyable offering, and impressive style example.

12 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a clear medium gold color with a small fizzy white head and poor retention. No lacing. Grainy aroma. Tastes like a smooth malt liquor with a short, buttery (diacetyl) finish. Watery body. Not as grainy as the aroma. Harmless, but I wouldn't seek it out. At least the 6.5% ABV is well hidden.
