3.0 Very light and down easily
4.2 Crisp clean taste no strong notes
2.0 "Biała" butelka... Paskudny, kukurydziany lager. Bardzo słodki, utleniony. Do wypicia tylko mocno schłodzony, inaczej zlew.
2.5 Mała buteleczka. Piwo o złotym kolorze. W smaku nic specjalnego, ot, zwykły lager, ale żadnych błędów czy przykrych odczuć nie zauważyłem.
2.4 Can. Golden straw pour. High carbonation. White fizzy head quickly recedes. Lightly aromatic cereal notes. Mild corn, some Palate is slippery, good hops and malt flavor, surprisingly drinkable. Nearly a classic pilsner flavor. This tastes more like actual beer than a lot of macros out there. Better cold with a twist of lime and pinch of salt. No wonder it is a fixture at parties everywhere. Easily sessionable, if one were so inclined.
3.1 Um cerveja estilo Pale Lager, de garrafa 355 ml, adquirida na Gourmet en casa, de cor dourada clara, espuma pouco duradoura, o malte de cevada bem presente no seu sabor e de ligeira intensidade alcoólica 4,5%. Muito fácil de beber, ideal para uma churrascada. Enhorabuena muchachos 👏🏻🍺🇲🇽
1.3 0.33l bottle at the Chicago O'Hare airport. Just a light lager, with some hints of bitterness in finish.
4.8 The gold foil gave this brew a very luxurious look! Similar to my favorite brand of south american smokes, but still clear that this is in fact a beer brand. apperance- very sunny see through golden hue, representative well of the pislner style. VERY large head. scent- very dry strong malt tastes, very wonderful. Very fragrent with good depth, strong bite, delayed sweetness at end. Very strong mouth taste, I'm wallowing in the wonder and unambigous flavor notes! Just the right amount of hops. stroing flavours just the right amount of carbs, almost the gegenteil of a shandy. stands out well, never dissapoints! Thanks mexico! -tittenliebhaber1933 for spanishc motherspeakers: ¡La lámina dorada le dio a esta infusión un aspecto muy lujoso! Similar a mi marca favorita de cigarrillos sudamericanos, pero claro que esta es de hecho una marca de cerveza. Apariencia- muy soleado ver a través de un tono dorado, bien representativo del estilo pislner. Cabeza MUY grande. aroma- muy seco fuerte sabor a malta, muy maravilloso. Muy fragante con buena profundidad, boca fuerte, dulzor tardío al final. ¡Sabor de boca muy fuerte, me estoy revolcando en las notas de sabor maravillosas e inequívocas! La cantidad justa de lúpulo. sabores fuertes la cantidad justa de carbohidratos, casi el gegenteil de un shandy. se destaca bien, nunca decepciona! gracias mexico! -tittenliebhaber1933
1.8 Kind of cheap looking brew despite the gold foil. Design could be a pack of South American cigarettes, nothing hinting at beer. Optics - very clear sunny gold, typical pils. No head. Nose - Sweetish light malt notes, not unpleasant. Oh dear! Very little substance, no bite, sweet onset (aaaaaagh), watery first mouthful, I'm drowning in anonymity. Very little taste, vague bitterness of hops but in homeopathic quantities. Medium carb, too much carb, gassy. Like a shandy. Very bland beer.
3.0 Purchased for Cinco de Mayo, just because. Not expecting much, about which I was right -- just like Corona. Pours bright, clear very pale golden yellow with a spritz of white bubbles on top of glass and around edge, although no lacing; carbonation rising quickly in glass. Aroma: corn syrup, Corn Flakes cereal. Flavor: honey, caramel, shortbread. Mouthfeel: light-bodied with a creamy sweetness that lingers.
2.3 Can from Shell, Greenbelt, MA. Modelo are playing their cards well enough with this. Bit deeper and more flavour than most macros available here. Darker in colour. Decent enough.
4.5 Herb, leicht süss. Kannst du mir jederzeit auftischen
1.2 Tastes like one of those beers that got left in the trunk of a hot car for a long time. Sweet at first, bitter finish and not a good bitter finish from hops.
3.0 Bottle at home, thanks to Dave over the road, 05/03/22. Clear golden with a good sized lasting white head. Nose is pale malts, cereals, grains, straw, dusty hay. Taste comprises pale malts, hint of lime, toasted grains, cereals, straw, light herb. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok logger bier.
1.8 Few poolside on vacay. Cold and gold. Not much else. Some grains, corn, faint cardboard and citrus.
2.8 Crisp and dry.
3.2 Clear light gold pour under a soapy white small head. Visible streaming. Bread and cereal grain like nose followed by a wheat, or flour taste. The tiniest of bite, otherwise unremarkable, but easy enough. Medium to light finish.
2.4 Bottle pours out golden topped with a white head. Nose is sweet grain and light grass. Taste is more of the nice light grain notes and some wet grass notes. Not much going on.
2.6 Into a tulip, chilled. Sparkling, medium gold body with a tight, wafer thin white crown. Dusty, earthy, haybale and chaff nose with a hint of peppery spice. Slightly soapy but otherwise clean. Low, dusty malts with something giving it a smoky phenolic finish. low to no bitterness but does have a dusty, stale herbal hop linger. Gets drabby as it warms so recommend ultra-chilled when served. Medium carbonation. Not much here. Not offensive in any way, but I can just imagine this being served from iced eskies in the sun and being a stale number. Average! (35,5cL, BBE 01/2022, 1st Choice Liquor Willetton)
2.3 33cl bottle from Home Bargains Medium white head. Clear golden pour. Not much to it. Not very good
3.2 Aromat: gdy ulotni się skunks to nuty trawiaste dominują, jest też ziołowość i zbożowość. Smak półsłodki, słodowy, trawiasty. Pełnia średnia, goryczka średnioniska, nagazowanie średnioniskie. Lepsze niż polskie komercyjne lagery
3.2 Moja ocena jest moją subiektywną oceną i nie musi pokrywać się z twoją oceną. Miej to na uwadze. Dystans zalecany. Instagram/czgr_
3.0 Zaskakujące piwo, może byłem spragniony, ale czyste w profilu, delikatna ale wyczuwalna goryczka.
2.7 Drunk from the bottle on the Fourth of July, gonna put a lime in after I try it, maybe my expectations are biased. Smells a bit malty and earthy through the drinking hole in the bottle neck. Flavor is amazing...ly soft and bland, but that seems to beer the point of American style lagers, and I'm not correcting that swype-o. Decent bitterness and not as flavorless as I expected.
3.0 If one wants to drink more than just a few, this can be done with Modelo Especial because it's really a light-type brew that's perfectly bland enough to allow one to enjoy more than just one during a session.
2.6 Puszka 0,33 litra, zakupiona przez ojca w Playa Del Carmen. Wypita 13.06.2021. Barwa złota, klarowna. Piana biała, średniej wysokości, niskiej trwałości, nie zdobi szkła. W aromacie umiarkowanie słodowe, trochę miodu i lekka, mokra ścierka. W smaku umiarkowanie słodowe. Niska goryczka.
2.2 Barwa żółta, klarowne, piana biała, średnio obfita, średnio trwała. W aromacie słodowe. W smaku słodowe, wodniste, niska goryczka. Sikacz, nuda.
3.0 Kolor złoty, klarowne. Piana biała, średnio obfita, gęsta, trwała, z piękną koronką. W aromacie nuty słodowe, siana, skórki chleba i takie kwaśno-słodkie typowe dla strong lagerów. W smaku słód, lekkie siano, dzięki ryżowi idzie w stronę półwytrawności. Pełnia niska do średnio niskiej, wysycenie średnio wysokie, goryczka niska, ale niezerowa. Typowy jasny lager, ale dobrze wykonany i pijalny. Na plus brak wodnistości i jakaś goryczka.
2.2 Kolor jasny piana drobnoziarnista, aromat lekko słodowy w smaku słodowość, wyczuwalna kwaskowatość i to by było tyle.
2.8 355 ml bottle. Pours a pale golden color with white head. The aroma consists of grass, corn, and cereal. Taste somemalty notes, bit grains, corn, light herbal grassy bitterness, dryish finish.
