Description
Very pale yellow color, less than 2 on the SRM scale. Brilliant
clarity with a large, robust, tightly formed head.
Aroma: I get a bit of spicy, earthy hop smell the first
time I smell the beer, along with a little bit of fresh
corn. Generally clean, with no significant defects. I've
heard people say they get some oxidation aromas, but I've
never encountered that in fresh samples, and I've never
tried this beer outside of Mexico.
Flavor: Extremely light bodied with a slightly sweet corn
flavor that I rather like in american pale lagers. In some
ways, it reminds me of some of the regional lagers I've
had in Pennsylvania, such as Yuengling or even Iron City.
Slight hops flavor, with just a little peppery edge to it.
Extremely light flavor.

BBC » I bought
this beer in 1989 so I don't quite recall the nuances of
its flavours.
