The Mexican Lager is Väsen's sign of summer! Exceptionally crisp and light-bodied from a deadly combo of pale malt, maize and lager yeast. And save your limes for your favorite tacos--we built in a citrusy finish from a combination of Motueka hops and lime peel. This liquid gold is our go-to grab on a sizzling beach day.

Clear golden coloured body with a very thick, six centimetre tall off-white head that is soapy, but fades fairly quickly. Aroma of grass, hay, flowers, light hops, a dash of biscuits and a lot of chamomile tea (very nice for me). Light to perhaps Medium-bodied; Strong herbal and grassy flavours dominate with a light hit of alcohol and fresh malts along with a punch of bread and relatively strong yeast notes that show nicely. Aftertaste shows the grass and very floral (chamomile blossoms) elements very strongly with some light sweetness and a touch of dryness from the malts at the tail end. Overall, a pretty nice light lager with tons of flavours and a good kick from the yeast, while showing even a touch of brine and salt at the end, as well, very nice and easy-drinking. Nice to sample this one relatively locally and fresh! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Whole Foods in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 01-June-2020 for US$1,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on 09-July-2020.

Draft at Väsen Brewing. Poured a very slightly hazy nice yellow color with a small off-white head. Aroma was light lime zest, light sweet notes. Easy to drink. Maybe great on a super hot day, the addition of lime wasn't my favorite part.

Light line. Pretty good, needs a little bit more carbonation...

$2.50 can, GTGSP. Only can that's cold from my haul today... so sounds like a good time to nap (after this one). Pours slightly hazy gold, lots of carbonation, white head. Aroma is lime, grasses, grain. Flavor is grain, lime zest, paper. Not great and a bit flat in the mouth despite what looks like decent carbonation.
