Our Tastes-- Negra Modelo IVAN EDITION

Now this is a premium Mexican beer!! The bottle are an awesome shape for the winter brew that I will be trying in a few weeks. This bad-boy has been around since and was first brewed in 1926 as a draft beer. It is Mexico's #1 dark beer and 1 of the top 5 export brands. It is a Munich-style beer that is great with or without the customary lime.

A few nuances about this beer is that:
1)The wort is cooled and simultaneously saturated with sterile air to inoculate the yeast and begin fermentation (giving little to no chance that bacteria can colonize)
2)Cervecería Modelo, S.A. makes its beers with the finest hops from Bohemia and Saaz as well as buying malt from the leading growers in Germany and the USA
3)Because of the public's preference for clear glass, it dropped its plan to use dark bottles, which would have helped conserve the essential oils in the hops.
In 1931, Negra Modelo was put on the market in half and quarter bottles.
