Without lime and salt, Dos Equis Special Lager tastes primarily of malt sweetness and corn. It has little to no bitterness and finishes clean.
While both beers are Mexican lagers, Dos Equis tastes similar to, but not quite like Corona.
This is heavily dependent on whether both beers are fresh. A fresh Dos Equis will taste similar to a fresh Corona. Unfortunately, Corona is usually bottled in clear glass. This greatly increases the chance of skunking.
The first aroma you will notice is the corn. It is accompanied by the malty sweetness present in the taste. These aromas are fairly faint and not overpowering.
Dos Equis pours clear and golden with a light white head that quickly dissipates. When drank, it generates little to no lacing. In the glass, there will be bubbles rising as it is moderately carbonated.
The overall mouthfeel is of watery but crisp carbonation. It is a very light mouthfeel beer that focuses on being refreshing rather than a complex feeling that demands attention.
