🌍 United States · Mexican Lager · One of 35 Mexican Lagers in hopIQ

Shiner ¡Órale! Limón builds on the brewery's Mexican-style lager, which is brewed with agave, and adds all-natural lime. It is made with premium two-row malt, American hops and lager yeast to 4.5 percent and pours a clear gold. The agave lends an earthy, mildly sweet note, balanced by bright lime and a light, crisp body. The finish is clean and quick, with a gentle citrus tartness.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright lime zest and citrus, immediately forward and inviting. Beneath this sits a subtle earthiness from the agave, grounding the aroma with a faint herbal character. American hops contribute a gentle, restrained floral note that does not overpower.
