About This Beer
Chido Mexican Lager 6 Pack 33Cl 4% is a modern craft beer that captures the essence of a classic Mexican-style lager while adding a fresh Irish twist. Brewed by Rascals in Ireland, this 4% lager beer is designed to be uncomplicated, refreshing, and easy to enjoy across a wide range of occasions. It fits perfectly within the craft beer Ireland category, offering something light, crisp, and full of character without being overcomplicated.
The defining feature of this beer is the use of real lime zest during brewing. Rather than adding a wedge at the end, the citrus character is built directly into the beer, creating a natural and balanced flavour. The result is a clean and refreshing profile with a gentle malt sweetness, subtle hop bitterness, and a bright citrus finish that lingers just enough to keep it interesting.
This lager beer is brewed with drinkability in mind. It is light-bodied, smooth, and designed for easy sessions, making it ideal for everything from casual evenings at home to social gatherings. Compared to a bold ipa beer or a rich stout beer, it focuses on clarity, balance, and refreshment, offering a more accessible option that still delivers flavour.
If you are exploring more beers in this style, you can find similar options within our Lager, Pilsner & Helles selection, where both traditional and modern interpretations of lager beer are available.
