Smells and taste putrid. American pale ale? Not even close. I hope Mexicans don't think this is what American brewers are producing. Two sips is all
I could stomach before drain pouring my bottle.

12oz bottle served at Club de la Cerveza in Playa del Carmen. Poured into a pint glass. Pours a medium orange body, one finger white head, good retention, no lacing. Smells of rich passion fruit, like they dumped passion fruit juice into an IPA. Mild cereal grainy sweetness, light caramel, but the smell is mostly passion fruit. Smells awesome and fruity. Flavour is a bit subdued though; the passion fruit is there on the backend, but for the most part there is a fairly nondescript cereal sweetness up front with a bit of resin. It's fruity, not particularly bitter, but it just seems a bit unbalanced. Be that as it may, it's tasty. Mouthfeel is lighter bodied, again with passion fruit on the finish, not particularly bitter.

L- Cloudy bright yellow body with a rich white head.
S- Citrus and fruits, orange-lemon like.
T- Lots of fruits all over the place, malts and hops are barely noticeable. Booze aftertaste.
F- Rich and smooth.
O- Not really an APA. Wouldn't say this was an APA if I had it without reading the label. Hops are almost nowhere to be seen. Also booze aftertaste is a no-no for me.

Pours pale amber with a thick white foam head. Smells hoppy/citrusy. Taste is balanced between bitterness and sweetness. Medium body with high carbonation. Overall a nice American Pale Ale.

Amber copper color with an incredible amount of fluffy to thick off-white head with great retention and leaving some laces.
Predominant aroma with an orange-lemon citrusy with caramel malt notes.
Flavor of tea leaves, toasted malts, honey, green pear, a touch of Cointreau liquor and spices and guaraná.
Light body with medium carbonation which is a bit effervescent.
Something quite didn’t match here, probably bad choice of yeast against the other ingredients. This is not an APA, it’s an awkward English Pale Ale.
