Modelo Especial (pack of 18) (35.5cl, 4.4%)

A pilsner-style lager from Mexico, brewed at 4.4% ABV and packaged as an 18-pack of 12 oz cans. Cervecería Modelo was established in Mexico City in 1925. It is brewed with barley malt, non-malted cereals, primarily corn, and noble hops, specifically Saaz and Hallertau, then fermented at low temperatures with lager yeast. The corn adjunct lightens the body and adds subtle sweetness, while the noble hops give restrained bitterness and delicate spice. The aroma has orange blossom honey, a faint herbal note and light breadiness. The palate is clean and slightly sweet, with corn-like malt, moderate breadiness and gentle hop bitterness. The finish is short and crisp, with light malt sweetness and a subtle floral hop note.
