I fully expect a great Mexican lager. As I've said before, we have a very large population of folks from Mexico in the Nashville area. Presumably, that will change with the push from the latest administration (I'm writing this in early 2025, at the beginning of the second Trump administration). Until the change happens, we can still get good Mexican food and variations on good Mexican beer.
The pale yellow beer is not at all recalcitrant when releasing bubbles. And the cool thing about the bobbles is that they are here to stay. I think I could wait all night, and there would still be a half inch of a milky layer of bubbles floating on top. The aroma is exceedingly light honey and biscuits. I mean, it's really, really light.
First sip is sweet, bready malt with a little honey and a tiny bit of floral hops. It's very subtle, refreshing, and understated. The miniscule buzz of carbonation right at the beginning of the sip gives the beer a nice little something that separates it from the pack. I don't know what it will taste like with a full gulp, but it is pretty dang nice to just sip. And sipping on a nice, sunny day while enjoying some fresh air is exactly what this appears to have been made for.
Tip-in is a bit watery, but the foam is helping prop up the honey and vague grains in the unbaked bread. The middle is very, very bland; water takes over, and almost all of the flavor disappears. The finish is where the middle should have been with sweet malt, honey, flowers, and possibly even a little citrus coming and hanging on for the trail off.
Bottom Line: Almost.
2.75/5
