About This Beer

You’ve ordered a red sauce and guacamole-smothered carne asada burrito the size of your face. The smell of roasted chili peppers and charred meat makes your mouth water.

Now, it’s time to crack the tab on a frosty cold can of this Mexican Lager to REALLY begin your tasting adventure.

The light crackery aromas of Perle, Tettnanger, and Spalt Spalter Hops complement the dish’s slightly smoky, savory flavors while corn and barley in the base provide a pillowy soft and sweet accompaniment.

Tasting Notes

Light crackery aromas open with each straw-pale pour. A corn and barley foundation meld together for a subtly sweet sip with a sublimely soft mouthfeel that makes each swig beyond thirst-quenching. The refreshingly snappy finish begs another taste.

16oz can from Tavour. Clear, pale golden pour with a lasting white one finger fluffy head. Clean, malty, grainy aroma. Taste follows with more of the biscuity malts. If there is corn in here, it is light and brings a slight sweetness to the brew. Smooth and tasty.

Nice refreshing lager. Not too light actually, really nice malty flavor.

Smooth and snappy but nothing made it stand out as a Mexican lager and the body was almost that of a helles, rather than trending to a more traditional grist bill.

Add a little salt and lime and it makes it even better. A smooth drinking lager in which the corn taste truly comes through.

Normally I don’t go for a lager but seeing that this was an iteration by Mountains walking I decided to give it a try. Very crisp and refreshing, nice subtle malt and corn with a bright and snappy body. Glad I decided to give this one a try.

Good Mexican Lager aromas. Mexican Lagers are actually one of my least favorite styles of beer, but this does a good job. The macro brewery scene for Mexican Lagers really ruins the style for me, but this is nice and clean and straight forward. No off oxidized flavors. Clean color. Great head. Honestly, I’d take this over any Mexican Lager on the market, any day.

Smooth and crisp, this beer is perfectly refreshing for a hot summer day spent grilling. Enjoyed it with some carne adobada tacos and eloté.

Taste of corn is strong. smooth drinkable and enjoyable. It seems like the hoppy flavors are coming out but then I stop by the corn flavor.
