Just another dull Latin American cerveza. Slightest musty malting overcomes bland grain setting and wispy citrus undertone lost amongst slim hop fizz. Moderate bitterness lingers to ineffective finish.

(GLUEK) RATTLESNAKE PALE LAGER
Smoked salami nose matches strange cured meat smudge of agavi-spiced (?) bitterness. Though reminiscent of busier Mexican pilsners, dry malt souring at dismal phenol finish insults faded orange hint and unleavened bread nuance.

RHEINGOLD EXTRA DRY LAGER
Once mainstream blue collar fodder sold at Mets baseball games, this traditional dry lager lives on in its better updated version boasting brighter orange-yellow body and minor turbidity. Pleasant fruited hop aroma and toasted barley-wheat backbone add new dimension to prominent sour malt frontage (which remains similar to original recipe). But sharp bitterness is gone by short-changed aftertaste.

TONA PREMIUM LAGER
Drab aluminum-yellowed pale lager lets cloy rice-sugared sourdough buttering, thin mineral-grained spice hop zip and ginger-leafed maize husk get lost amongst musty corn-oiled backdrop. Musky dry-smoked beechwood soaping, bland cotton-candied nuance and pale-malted cardboard plainness depleted by ruinous chemical solvency and briny lemon-salted bittering of horrid Latino, further complicating matters.
