This beer takes takes you for the ride of your life, from the very first taste! This is, by far, the best beer I have ever tasted! With all the herbs and spices, this seems to have a celebration in your mouth!

This is an easy drinking and enjoyable beer. The Head is a soapy white color, that died down fairly quickly. There was no lacing to speak of on the glass. This is worth a try if you see it.

Signing up for this site on my phone was the hardest thing I ever did. Sheesh. If you want a username, don't ask for "name". And on and on with the errors.
Fortunately, drinking this awesome beer makes everything better. Too bad it's seasonal.

Poured from a 12 OZ bottle into a pint glass. The color is a pale straw yellow color with a large white head. The aroma is corn and some malt. The taste is a sweeter version of their regular Dos Equis.

From the bottle stamped L6132484CDO408-05116. Sampled on September 11, 2016.
The pour is a slightly pale yellow color with a fast white head. Some fog.
That Agave is the big thing on the nose. Fruity sweet, syrupy, and herbal notes to the max. Any toasted bread or hop character seems to be downplayed.
The body is medium.
The taste is uniquely juicy and sweet but it has a mild dry finish. I guess I just prefer a sweet character to a hop character so I liked it better than earlier reviewers.

there are worse beers out there, thats for sure. always a risk with the cheaper spiced beers, but this one has some redeeming qualities to it, despite being overly sweet for what it is, and still tasting more macro than crafted. hints of orange and honey to this, lots of residual sugar, maybe coriander on the spice front, maybe vanilla too, it has that slightly artificial tasting sweetness to it. its kind of thicker too, which is interesting in a beer this light, and especially in the context of their other brands, its heavier on the palate and in the belly, and end up feeling like a witbier more than anything else, and the taste is reminiscent of a wit as well, there has to be some wheat malt in here. vibrant carbonation is nice, but half way through the bottle as this warms up a bit, it starts to get pretty yucky. the sweetness takes over, the spice gets a little much, and it feels heavy. agave syrup in here? is that what does this? anyway, its not a bad beer overall, but not something i am interested in drinking again anytime soon. i appreciate these guys doing something a little different though, nice to see them taking chances at this level...

Part of a variety 2-pack Walmart
Clear golden color
Medium-light carbonation
Light mouthfeel
Sweet malty taste
Overall better than the regular Dos Equis. The blue agave adds something to the taste to make it better.

Straight from the bottle. Tastes a lot like a wheat beer. The spice adds a nice flavor and the agave is subtle. I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would.
