This is pretty bad, but to me it beats out some like because it at least has some ok flavour.

It's appearnace is pretty standard, but slightly on the higher side for cheap/basic US macro lager due to a decent head: it's gold and bubbly with a very big white head thar diminishes only slowly to a thin, lasting foamy top.

The aroma is the weakest point of the beer: it smells of dust, a hint of moldy towels, and perfume. It's actually slightly unpleasant.

The taste and feel are better, but not much. It is slightly roughly alcoholic and has a slightly rough, watery feel. There is a strong, corn tortilla taste and nothing else. This at least gives it flavour but it gets really tiresome. Also, although watery, its strong corn quality gives it a soft fullness that makes it a bit heavy and results in a beer that is not even crisp or refreshing, usually one of the strong points of decent cheap lagers.

i like cheap beers, and this one is near perfect. crisp and refreshing, with a light, wheaty flavor and very refreshing. i know that by beer drinker's standards this is not a high quality item, but that's what i like. it's mild and not at all overpowering. very drinkable. i'm not one to savor the event of drinking a beer - this is one you can guzzle and consume mass quantities without it going to your head or feeling full and bloated. in my opinion, almost the perfect beer.
