    My choice for Cinco de Mayo 08 (though didn’t drink it that day). Frankly very lightweight lager. Tastes like watered down Pilsner Urquel, so the base is very good, except for the wateryness.

    Pint on tap at Las Vegas Airport. It's just a big glass of flat brown water with no head. Looks horrible, cost USD12. Hooray! Smells slightly like beer, tastes watery and zingy. I assume you're meant to drink this out of a bottle. Horrible excuse for a beer.

    Pale gold with a medium sized white head and good lacing. Aroma of corn and honey. Tastes of corn, bready, honey and grainy
    It is what it is.

    Odd shaped clear stubby bottle. Ubiquitous pale yellow american lager color. Hints of lemony or citrus aromas. Good level of carbonation. Taste is somewhat lemony or lime, just a bit. Comes across almost industrial and processed, mildly tart. Tho there is no bitterness on this short finish, it does have a metallic background. Odd watery creek like soda effect.

    33cl bottle from Prisma, Tallinn. Pours pale golden with a fast dissipating white head. Grainy and slightly fruity aroma with hints of cooked vegetables. Fairly drinkable when cold, especially next to hot food or possibly in hot weather. Besides that a fairly standard industrial pale lager. Not the worst, but far from the best.

    355 ml clear bottle, bought in Denmark. ABV is 4.5%. Clear pale golden colour, moderate white head. Strong sweetish Heineken-like lightstruck aroma, notes of maize. The flavour (as far as there is any flavour at all) has maize, grain and wet cardboard. Some weak citric notes, a little sweetness, minimal hops. As the beer is wet, cold and carbonated, it may serve some purpose under the Mexican sun - otherwise, it is one to forget.

    The beer pours a translucent medium gold colour withj a short-lived bubbly head. The aroma is grassy malt, and metal. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is grassy malt, and corn notes. Not very good.

    I had this at Cheddar's in Roanoke, VA. Cheddar's isn't a "craft" scene establishment, and while I pretty much despise Mexican beers, this wasn't the worst. That isn't sayin much and is a very low bar. Crisp, clear, light yellow, light weight, slightly tinny in flavor

    Appearance is typical lager yellow. Aroma is malty and rather weak. Taste is weak, malty, and rather bitter; its flavor is more like that of a "lite" beer than a regular lager. Smooth but watery, it is barely drinkable and quite forgettable. Maybe the can affected it some - I have found that beers taste best on-tap, while bottles come second and cans are the worst.
