Corona


Look: yellow as bottle it comes in



Taste: lots of barley, crisp, cool and refreshing



Conclusion: This beer has become a staple at all Latino gatherings. It is the ideal beer for a hot summer day as it offers a great refreshing flavor and is very cheap for a 12er. I fancy it to the Mexican Pabst.
It offers a great initial burst of flavor, but it washes away too quickly. The good thing is that it pairs up nicely with most any food you can think of. While I am not a fan of "fruiting the beer", it does taste a lot better with lime and a little salt.

I give this beer a 5 out of 10 because of the versatility.

CORONA!!!! More affectionately known as Mexican water.

This is THE BBQ beer. Goes good with anything grilled and is light enough to chug all night. Definitely a party/BBQ brew, made for poundin. Not one that I could sit back and enjoy alone. I agree with the 5. Not a great beer per say but definitely not bad.

Corona is *so* overrated. There are so many great beers out there and apparently you are finding it! LOL!

I will take a Bohemia over a Corona any day!

Get your hands on some San Miguel Pale Pilsen (Filipino Beer) and tell me what you think...
