Tecate Original
Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma, S.A. de C.V.

 

 

From a can, the mountain range on the can intrigued me. Has a nice head that lasts a while. Taste is some corn, finishes slightly hoppy, but exceeded my expectations. Cheers!

 

 

Drining this straight from the can as the gods intended. Nose is malty with a candy sweetness and a bit of herbal. Nothing much else. On the palette this is nice and crisp, beer flavored mostly. No skunk or bannana notes or other offensive shitty flavors. Just a pleasant crispy. Mouthfeel has moderate carbonation and a light-medium body. Good value macro brew if youre getting these on a taco tuesday. Nothing to write home about ha. Cheers!

 

 

 

 

 

Got a quart bottle to make a 32 ounce Michelada (El Toxico brand kit). Smelled and tasted slightly skunked despite the dark brown bottle. Look: Just like Budweiser or Miller. Would NOT drink it straight. Made a damn good Michelada but I think we can attribute that to El Toxico who made the parts that didn't suck. Under $4 for a quart of beer isn't bad but I probably could have gotten something even cheaper that wouldn't have made a difference after the various ingredients of the Michelada.

This is a surprisingly decent macro.

Look: Shity light yellow.
Smell: Wow, I am very impressed by this herby/floral scent I’m getting.
Taste: Good enough for beer flavored beer.
Feel: Extremely thin. I could piss a beer with more of a body (and probably higher ABV) than this one.
Overall: This isn’t a world class beer but it’s one of the better ones you’ll find at your average mini-mart. Sure, I’d buy this beer again as it’s REALLY poundable and dirt cheap.

Decided to try a new “Mexican” lager when we went out to eat and this one was on sale.
The waitress brought me a 12 oz can, a lime slice and a 10 oz frosted mug. Hmmm.
I sucked on the lime after a few sips to see if it did anything for the flavor. Nope.
Any way- poured hay yellow with an off white head which leaves decent lacing.
Aroma still isn’t available to me.
The taste reminds me of a decent Pilsner at first, until I realized that the cracker tastes were actually corn flavors.
That said, it went well with the tortilla chips that were on the table.
The feel was good, eminently quaffable and if not ice cold, probably slammable.
OA, maybe only when eating tortilla chips this is good, but that’s not nothing.

 

 

Clear gold, almost immediately headless. Alcohol on the nose, bland flavour. Slightly sharp on the palate from carbonation, but with a watery finish. Light bodied. Uninspired, inoffensive beach-grade sort of stuff. Meh.
