16 oz can. Pours a clear yellow with a white head. Pale malt and honey in the aroma. Flavor is very light, pale malt, a bit of honey, herbal hop. It's okay, but just not much going on.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a clear honeysuckle gold with a small head that dissipates quickly. Light grainy aromas on the nose with some mild toasted bread and crackery malt notes. Good carbonation. light with surprisingly nice body for a Mexlcan-style lager. Not overly sweet, with a dry peppery finish. Crispyboi for sure.

Pounder can from house of 1000 warrendale. Smells like plain old beer. Poor is big clear pale with a fast fading foamy head. Taste is a little more than a light pale lager, this is more like a regular lager and maybe even a premium lager. Yes, it says 4.2 but this stuff comes across much stronger in personality. It even has a sharp bite like a pils, maybe even a wheat ale? Just asking and just saying this is not light pale lager as listed. Even a little difficult at times, somewhat astringent fer-sher. It does have good cutting co2 to the end which at least makes it a little refreshing.

16 ounce can into lager glass, canned on 6/20/2018. Pours crystal clear pale golden yellow color with a 1 finger fairly dense and rocky 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 retaining the cap. Aromas of cracker, corn, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Touch of fruity aromas, but not overwhelming. Nice and pleasant aromas with pale malt/corn and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of cracker, corn, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, corn, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness of pale malt/corn and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero astringent flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with zero fruity notes present. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitterness and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth and moderately bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.2%. Overall this is a delicious Mexican adjunct lager style. All around nice robustness of pale malt/corn and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Very flavorful and not watery for the ABV. Very clean pale malt/grains and good sized earthy hop presence for the style. Nice barley presence, and not overdone on adjuncts. Apparently trying to grab the Corona market. Definitely won't win over the macro drinkers with the hop presence, but the craft fans will definitely enjoy. A very enjoyable offering, and outstanding style example. One of the best AALs I've had.
