Moctezuma Noche Buena
Region: Province of Veracruz, Mexico
Style: Munich Dark Lager
Alcohol: 6.0% ABV

The name means "good night", referring to Christmas Eve. This is the time when Mexicans have their Christmas dinner. Noche Buena, a strong, dark lager, is one of the tastiest beers from Mexico. It has an amber-brown color, and is very smooth, with malt sweetness and hoppy dryness in its finish.
