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.

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