Poured from 12oz bottle into glass. Best by date stamped on bottle neck is 'APR 2019'.
Clear straw/pale gold colored body. Half a finger of white head upon pouring, recedes back to partial island and thin ring. Leaves just a few spots of lacing.
Aroma is cracker malts (with a little sweetness) and minor floral hops.
Taste is dry, with slightly sweet malts balanced against the slight bitterness of the hops.
Thin mouth feel. Good carbonation.
Pleasant enough pilsner that is refreshing for what it is. I am having a side by side comparison with a Guatemalan Famosa, because these were the two finalists in a recent tasting of "Mexican" lager beers. Unfortunately the Famosa is "skunked" which does not allow for a good comparison. The Bohemia's strength is its balance between the slightly sweet, bready malts and the slightly bitter hops. Very easy to drink. No off putting flavors.

Lively carbonation as what is expected from a well made pilsner. The taste does remind me of a German Pilsner. This is light & refreshing & I am not getting any taste of high fructose corn syrup. One of my new favorite Mexican beers. Cheers! B

The only way to sell this is mixing it into variety 12 packs which my wife purchased-arghhhh. Aroma is decent Pilsner. Taste is off putting. Bitterness, funk and bite. Not refreshing at all. I put this on the top portion of my cooler (backyard BBQ) with the likes of Corona, Sol etc.. Only one was half drank. My neighbor, who drinks swill, turned his nose to this. Tecate lite was delicious compared with this. Be wary of variety packs. In my opinion, this is not palatable. But please don't pour down the drain-mix with yard fertilizer.

Sweet, floral hop aroma with almost no head. Classic amber color and medium carbination make this beer quite appealing. There is a nice balance between the bitter hops and sweet malt. It has an interesting dryness that hilghlights its pilsner quality.This is a good lager, not watered down like most American macro pilsners.

12oz bottled January 2018 & marked bb January 2019 poured into a can glass at fridge temp 4.7% ABV 21 IBU. The beer pours bright golden straw yellow with nearly white head. The head recedes to a fine coat and leaves some lacing. The aroma is a mix of floral hops and light malts. The taste is more light malt with a steady balancing bitterness, but no distinct hop flavor. Mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied, adequately carbonated and mostly dry in the finish. The finish is clean with minimal off flavors. Overall, very good. Not sure it's a German pilsner, but it's the best light colored Mexican beer I've tried. Scored as a German Pilsner, not an AAL. AAL score would have been higher.
