Corona Cero

Mexico·Alcohol-Free Lager
Tap to rate

Corona Cero is the alcohol-free beer of the brand for markets outside the United States, bottled at 0.0 % and made, according to the brewery, from natural ingredients only. It pours a clear, pale gold with a light white head. The nose is faint, with soft grain and a touch of citrus, and the palate matches the brewery's description of a crisp lager with subtle citrus notes: light cereal sweetness, gentle bitterness and a thin body that ends quickly and clean.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with light cereal sweetness from the Malz base, followed by a gentle bitterness that remains restrained throughout. Citrus notes echo the aroma subtly but never dominate. The body is thin and crisp, allowing the beer to finish cleanly without any sticky or cloying residue.
