When
it comes to Mexican Beers, what springs to mind for
most of us? Maybe Carona and Dos Equis or another brand with
regular TV spots? If that's the case for you, we want to take
this opportunity to highlight two national brands that may
have flown under your radar. Bohemia is a pilsner that's bright
and very drinkable, and Indio is a smooth, slightly sweet
larger made with caramel malts.
Bohemia - Brewed by Cervecreia Cuauhtemoc Moctezuma
Nose:
Malty with low hops
Light citrus
Taste:
Light Malty sweetness
Crisp initial taste with a lingering slightly bitter after
taste
When to Drink:
With lighter Mexican food and warm summer weather
If you want something with a bit more body and depth than
many standard Mexican pilsners
Indio - Brewed by Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma
Nose:
Caramel malts
Taste:
Malty sweetness with caramel
No lingering aftertaste
When to Drink:
It would be interesting to pair with a Mexican dish like Chicken
Mole that has a somewhat sweet note
If you're looking for an approachable, sweeter deviation from
a traditional lager
