This Mexican Lager is brewed with Colorado hops from Hire Wire Hops, South of the Border Lager Yeast and flaked maize. Crisp and refreshing. Perfect after a long day on the slopes.

16oz can. Stamped on can bottom is 'BORN ON 10/04/22'.
Clear, straw colored body. One finger of white head, which quickly dissipates to a frothy cap and ring.
Aroma of corn and fruity hops.
Taste is sweet corn malt and fruity (apple and lemon) hops. A little bit of spice. Stays sweet in the aftertaste.
Very crisp and clean mouth feel. Thirst quenching. Fizzes in the mouth. Very good carbonation.
Very tasty and refreshing lager.

Imperial Pint
Look: Straw yellow in color, pouring a fluffy 1 finger head which dissipated into a cap. Lots of effervescence
Smell: Light doughy malt, lemon zest, and a hint of minerals and ocean breeze
Taste: sweet and salty malt with lemon zest with just a hint of hops bitterness. The finish leaves a citrusy doughy malt behind
Feel: moderate body with a silky mouthfeel. Gentle carbonation
Overall: Its a delicious, smooth and refreshing sipper

Crystal clear golden body with a full white head and great bands of lacing. Corn, lager malts, and grassy hops in the nose. Taste adds a grainy biscuit dimension. Really clean and crisp with a kiss of hops, good carbonation and crushable body. Paired great with enchiladas. The wife liked it.

Straw colored body; excellent clarity; extremely lively carbonation; one-finger thick head, soapy and spongy. Fine light grain smell; light grassy and herbal hop scent. Very mild malt base taste; light toastiness; mild to moderate hop bitterness. Light body; crisp; fairly dry overall.
A fine light lager, with no major faults yet nothing really exceptional either. Still, clean and refreshing.
