$2 can pale yellow nice head. Tasty, a little odd, trying to be tart, but seems to drift towards cloying. Pretty good sizzle but its cutting sweetness turns into little stilettos. Decent in the middle. Finish not bad. How about a pale lager chaser? Probably will not repeat.

12 ounce can into lager glass, canned on 6/5/2019. Pours slightly hazy pale golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big lightly tart/tangy limes, citrus peel/zest, cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light corn, wood, peppercorn, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance of limes/peels, pils malt/grains, and moderate earthy hop notes; with big strength. Taste of big lightly tart/tangy limes, citrus peel/zest, cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light corn, wood, peppercorn, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery, citrus peel/zesty bitterness; and light citrus tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart/tangy limes, citrus peel/zest, cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light corn, wood, peppercorn, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a short bit. Great robustness and balance of limes/peels, pils malt/grains, and moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness and tart/tangy fruit balance; with zero astringent flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with zero fruity/yeasty notes. Moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitter/tartness, and carbonation. Medium-plus carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy/sticky/peel/zesty, and light acidic/tangy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.8%. Overall this is an excellent flavored Mexican lager. All around great robustness and balance of limes/peels, pils malt/grains, and moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the modestly bitter/tart/drying finish. Very flavorful and not watery for the ABV. Awesome balance between super vibrant limes, and clean pils malt/grains; with great earthy hop presence/balance for the style. Zero residual sweetness with crisp drying. Mild on adjuncts. A very enjoyable offering, and impressive well made style example as expected. Fantastic summer beer.
