Company: Heineken
ABV: 5.9
IBU: 13
Originally brewed by Brasserie Fischer in France, of more recent years, this beer is brewed by the Heineken folks at the Karlovačko Brewery.
It had been a long while since I'd last tried this one, and I have to admit to being skeptical of it upon picking up the bottle this time. But all in all, this wasn't a bad drinking experience.
Desperados pours a nice, light gold color into the glass, and while doing so it gives off a scent of sweet corn and maybe caramel. It tastes a little like a Corona but with a stronger fruity, spiced sweetness.
One is pretty good, but after a few the fruity flavor gets a little annoying. Made with a tad bit of tequila, and you can just barely taste it. Worth giving a try.

I'll have to look for that one. I brewed a beer last year, a Mexican-style lager, adding agave syrup to add a suggestion of a tequila flavor. It turned out all right.
Desperados isn't bad. Not great, but not bad. Probably go best on a hot day after mowing the yard or at a cook out.
