Reviews:

Bruz: This went down real easy and at 4% alc/vol I would hope so! Tasted just like typical american "bad beer", like a PBR, Shaefer or Schlitz, but seemingly even more watered down. Not an in-depth review, but that's truly all there is to it. Weak alcohol content & basic taste gives this 5/10 stars. Thanks out to BigJ, White Mike & tesguino for these!


11/12/09 itsdanko: So I went into this bottle kind of nervous, I'm not sure why... but I did. I dont have a bottle opener so I had to pluck at the top with a knife, works every time. First impression was nice, reminded me of a bad beer... I like that.

Just shy of 3/4 through and I'm liking the taste more then I originally had. I'm not sure whats going on... but I am feeling pretty good. Wouldnt call it a buzz, but I wasnt really expecting anything from the 4%... so I'll take it.

Done. I have to say that Victoria gets a big thumbs up. Taste 9/10 and Buzz would probably be around a 3/10. Its times like these that I wish I was mexican.... not really.

Thanks to BigJ for hooking this up... I've been wanting to try this for a long time.


11/2/09 40ozHawaii: Cracked a Victoria 27%mas on a college football Saturday. I had just finished a Corona Familiar and was in the mood to continue with mexican beers since it was already on my palate.

I knew from the onset that the 4% alcohol content wasn't going to yield a strong flavor, or buzz factor. However, when you are looking for a beer that is refreshing on a warm, sunny day, this about hits the perfect spot.

Not unlike other Mexican brews, this beer has a clean, crisp, and light taste. Not too watered-down, nor heavy either, this beer holds a characteristic smoothness from the first sip to the last.

I would certainly add this beer to my rotation if it was available here, as Hawaii is the perfect climate to enjoy this light and tasty brew.

Taste: 9/10
Swill: 8/10
Buzz: 4/10
Label: 9/10

Thanks BigJ for the trade


9/30/09 40zForSatan: Victoria was pretty good, I liked that I had both canadian 40s and a mexican 40 in the door of my fridge, neighbors to the north and neighbors to the south, straight chillin in my fridge. I drank this on my weekly horror and 40s get together, we watched the funhouse. I like that I needed a bottle opener for this one. I was not expecting what hit me at first, a very bold taste. I got accustomed to it quickly and it was pretty smooth, definitely a great 40 for kicking back and drinking all day since it doesn't do much buzzwise.

TASTE: 8/10
SWILL: 8/10
LABEL: 9/10 (silk screened on the bottle)
BUZZ: 3/10
OVERALL: 6/10


6/28/09 BigJandthe40: My mexican co-worker hooked me up with this 40oz, thank you Pancho!

I took both of these out to my sisters house today, for her sons 2 birthday. It was 104 degrees out in Fairfield and being outside playing horse shoes I couldnt wait to crack this 40oz. It was the first 40oz I have had to open with a bottle opener, first sip was awsome, this is a super smooth hot day weather beer. This went perfect with horse shoes, I like the taste of this beer, it taste like a super smooth Mexican beer
I liked it alot more then a Tecate or Carta Blanca. I drank one and my dad and sister shared the other. I give this 2 thumbs up for hot weather drinking. The buzz was a 3 out of 10 the taste was 9 out of 10 and the bottle looks awsome in my collection
