Brewed to 4.9% in Toronto, Reminiscence Mexican Lager is a pale golden crisper born of Rorschach Brewing Co. The beer, brewed with corn, comes in 473mL cans and it pours with a thin layer of white suds.
Reminiscence
has sweet, grainy aromatics. The flavour is, expectedly, mild, with
some corn and grain notes and an unassumingly crisp bitterness.
I
don’t totally get the current brewing hype with Mexican lagers. I mean,
I understand that they are difficult to brew and that every flaw shows.
I just don’t get them from an appreciation standpoint as a craft beer
fan who isn't a brewer. That said, I did find Reminiscence
Mexican Lager to be a nice and refreshing, if perhaps a bit too sweet,
little brew.
Rating: 7.5 out of 10.
