Tap to rate

Pacífico Suave came out in July 2020, the year of the brand's 120th anniversary, as a lighter pilsner-style lager and was rolled out across Mexico. At 3.4 % it sits between the Clara and the Light in strength. It shows a clear, pale gold. The brewery describes a soft body and a balanced flavour in the manner of the Clara, and the profile follows from that: a light grainy malt note, a hint of sweetness, gentle hop bitterness and a crisp, short finish.
