My beer-giving friend has another gift for me: Desperados! I think I’ve had another of their products some years ago, a mix of beer and tequila. It was … fine. I’m not a big fan of tequila, or light lagers, but as something different, it is something different. This is not a tequila beer, however, this is a mojito beer! It announces rum as one of its flavorings, although at less than 6% it might not have any contact with actual rum. It also promises mint and lime aromas, if not flavors, which sounds right for the recipe. <\/p>\n\n\n

Oh dear, so skunky! That’s what you get with a clear bottle if you let it sit around, even in a fridge I guess. It stimulates some nostalgia with its catnippy quality, memories of personable pets and warm summers. It does produce a creamy and resistant head. It has a very spicy aroma, like a caraway cracker or roll, more than a typical beer or cocktail. The taste is surprisingly sweet in the first second, but then is overwhelmed by herbal mint. I can almost feel the fuzziness of the leaves. It softens with a little time and warmth, oddly, and ends up much like a radler. If you can get over the, uh, natural aroma at the start, it’s a nice, sharp summery drink, probably a little lighter than the mojito itself, and more of a party than a simple light lager or pilsner. Oh wait, distributed by Heineken? I shouldn’t have expected anything else from the smell.<\/p>\n\n\n
