Bohemia Clasica (now owned by Heineken International) is going to be your more favored “mexican” beer.  It is 12 FL. OZ. of tastiness and one of Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma’s finest and most awarded beers. It has a very nice golden, almost cider like body.  There is little to no hop aroma, yet it is still [...]
