Dos Equis Roja
Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma, S.A. de C.V.

For what it is, it’s pretty good. Looks like a thirst quenching beer, smelled like it, and it quenched my thirst.
A bit less malty than I expected, but that might have been caused by the frosty mug that they served it in.
I certainly wouldn’t refuse one, but I don’t think I would want to buy a 6 pack any time soon.

 

 

 

Taste: crisp, some toasted malts, caramel with a clean finish. malty with a hint of sourish yeast nose. Deep Red/ Copper hue, clear, with a tan head of lace. Easy lite body.

 

Bottle from local grocery (in August) so this may have been old from last fall/winter? Still pours dark amber. Malt and some caramel. Nothing offensive but nothing memorable either. Light bodied beer with wet after taste.

 

Poured from a 12 OZ bottle into a pint glass. The appearance is a dark amber color with a small white head. The aroma is malt and grains with some hops. A decent lager.

Poured from 12oz bottle into a dimpled mug.

Appearance: rich amber-red hue with no haze and a thin layer of ivory foam. I think the color is just incredible.

Smell: lightly sweet with a nice caramel character. Hops are not really present, but overall it's a pleasant aroma.

Taste: really very light flavor of caramel and just a little bit of hops. It's refreshing, but too mild to really grab me.

Mouthfeel: medium-light body but with a huge carbonation yielding a very nice creaminess indeed. Woo!

Overall: this beer's weakness, its mildness, is also one of its strengths: this beer is immensely drinkable. I could easily put away a lot of these on a nice hot day.

 

Meh.
