Low bitterness, crisp, low-med body. Lime and salt are present but not overpowering. 4.2% ABV make this light & smooth to drink.

The second best of the four flavors. Gold in color with a three finger head. Aroma is grains, straw and lime. Taste is also grains, straw and lime.

24oz can picked up from a Mexican market and shared at my daughters in Laguna Hills on 14th July 2023. Clean and clear light golden body, white crown that struck away fairly swiftly. Lime like aroma and initial taste, salt kicks in more as the beer warmed a little. The base beer isn't great and the addition of lime and salt doesn't help to enhance it's appeal to me; another Mexican rate though!
Fair bit of salt, but plenty refreshing.

12oz can picked up at Harmon's. Pours clear light golden with a medium sized head that dissipates quickly, good lacing. Grains, lime, salt. Ok, but might taste better in a hot day.

Can from total wine in st pete. Slight lime nose. Clear pale. Good co2 level from the start. Its also quite refreshing Decent mild lime taste. Quite enjoyable mexican style brew. I've always liked most dos equis beers, since the college days at tequila junction in pittsburgh and this is just another version of those tasty beers in my memory. Yes, civilized lime flavored lager which is well balanced and easy to take. Decent overall beer tasting experience.

12 oz. Aroma has notes of lime, corn, grain, a light bread note. Pours clear golden with a one finger off white head with decent retention. Taste is lightly tart and faintly bitter with flavors of lime, corn, salt, faint hop presence. Better straight out of the can.

Lime, salt, barley malt, and straw aroma. Golden yellow with moderate white head. Lightly sweet lime, barley malt, mildly salty, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Okay body. Not bad.

12 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a crystal clear gold color with a small white head and poor retention. No lacing. As expected, lime aroma. And as advertised, it tastes like a lime lager with salt added. Neither the lime nor salt flavor are too strong, so it doesn't taste too artificial. Light body and light mouthfeel. Zero bitterness. Medium carbonation. A serviceable summer beer.
