To truly appreciate a Modelo Especial, start with a clean, chilled glass. While many reach for the bottle, pouring the beer allows the carbonation to release delicate floral aromas that are otherwise trapped in the neck.
Hold your glass at a forty-five-degree angle and pour steadily until it is half full. Then, straighten the glass to create a perfect, frothy head. This foam is essential as it protects the beer from oxidation and locks in the crisp, refreshing flavour profile.
Serve at a temperature between four and six degrees Celsius. Anything colder will mask the subtle notes of malt and citrus, while a warmer beer may lose its signature crispness.
