Modelo Especial Mexican Lager Import Beer, 3 Pack 24 fl. oz. Cans, 4.4% ABV

Coming from a background in craft brewing, I had previously dismissed Modelo Especial as one of "the usual suspects"...but it was through my sommelier training that I learned to open doors previously closed to food and people pairings. At a recent carne asada, or bbq event, in the Rio Grande Valley of southern Texas, someone gave me a 7oz Modelito served in a tall wine glass. It was delicious and refreshing with a slight bready flavor, as if I were tapping a barrel at the cervecería (brewery) myself. It also positively changed my perspective on the brand after I tasted a few more that day, including a sampling of the mysteriously dark Modelo Negra.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed trying the Modelo Lager and Chelada lineup. I've always liked Modelo, so it was nice having a few different options to put out when friends came over. The Modelo Especial had that classic lager taste I expected, the Modelo Oro was lighter and easy to drink, and the Chelada Especial added something different with more flavor. The variety worked well because there was something for everyone. Some guests liked the lighter Modelo Oro, while others went for the regular Modelo Especial. For me, Modelo Especial still stood out the most because it has that smooth, familiar taste I've always enjoyed. Overall, I thought the lineup was refreshing, flavorful, and a good balance of light beer, classic lager, and chelada-style flavor. I would definitely recommend it to friends and family who enjoy Modelo, lagers, or cheladas, and I would buy these again for cookouts, pool days, or having people over.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Modelo Especial strikes the perfect balance between crisp and refreshing. It's not overly light, yet bold enough to savor while watching a soccer match or cheering on your favorite team. This classic Mexican lager delivers a clean, smooth taste that stays true to its Latino heritage.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Modelo beer has a bright, refreshing taste that makes it a favorite for casual sipping. All the guests at my gathering absolutely loved its crisp smooth taste. The carbonation was lively enough to add a pleasant snap without overwhelming the flavor. It paired well with tacos, as well as barbecues, and is now one of my favorite beers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Modelo Especial was the perfect drink to enjoy on the beach and watch Futbol!! Everyone at the party liked the smoothness of the beer which makes it a great option as a universal party drink! I will definitely keep a case in my fridge in case anyone comes over and needs a cold, refreshing beer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family and I enjoyed drinking Modelo Mexican lager for our World Cup watch party. It has a nice smooth crisp taste and is nice cold on a hot day. It's also good to use to marinate your carne asada.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Here's a positive review you can use: Modelo always delivers a great experience. The beer is crisp, smooth, and refreshing, making it a perfect choice for watching fútbol with friends. It really adds to the game-day atmosphere, and the quality is consistently excellent. I highly recommend Modelo for anyone looking to make their watch party even more enjoyable!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Modelo Especial's unique taste may not be a perfect match for all beer lovers and drinkers. The overall experience with the Modelo Lagers and Cheladas is to start with the Lagers first then save the Cheladas for the hangovers. Or mix the cheladas with the lagers. You have options! The party guests enjoyed the Modelo Lagers more than the Modelo Cheladas as the Modelo Cheladas are more of an aquired taste. All of the lagers were refreshing and flavorful in their own way. You cannot go wrong with Modelo- Modelo's lineup offers the right balance of lightness, classic lager taste, and chelada style ingredients! The Modelo Oro stood out the most to me as it is the most classic out of the entire Modelo lineup offered and it was light and flavorful. I highly recommend the Modelo lineup to all of my closest amigos y familia (family and friends) who enjoy drinking lagers and cheladas during fútbol (soccer) watch parties and celebrations! I have found a new Modelo lager that I will buy in the future for more fútbol (soccer) watch parties beyond the FIFA World Cup- Modelo Oro.
