Corona Familiar (71cl, 4.8%)

Corona Familiar is a Mexican pilsner-style lager brewed by Grupo Modelo. It is packaged in a 24 oz brown glass bottle, which shields the beer from light and helps prevent skunky off-flavours. Compared with Corona Extra, this expression has a fuller body and richer malt character. The grain bill includes corn, barley malt and hops, and the beer is brewed using a traditional lager process. Primary production takes place in Zacatecas and Nava, Coahuila. On the nose there is malty sweetness, light fruitiness, caramel and fresh grain, with a subtle bready quality. The palate is bright and crisp with cereal sweetness, biscuity notes, light caramel and clean minerality, moving towards whole-grain bread character. The finish is moderate, with balanced hop bitterness and a faint malt sweetness.
