Is it just me or is Corona nearly undrinkable without a lime wedge in it? Same thing for Negra Modelo. I award bonus points if the lime is accompanied by a shrimp and a dollop of hot sauce, preferably Cholula or Tapatío.
Bring on the hate! :hatecat: |

Beer is something like 90% water. Why would you drink beer made there? |

Its euro pale lager brought to mexico by german immigrants at the beginning of the 19th century and brewed with local ingredients. I find nothing wrong with the beer itself, it can be quite refreshing on a hot day. I can enjoy almost anything, but there is just something about a Corona without a lime that I can't handle.
I know a lot of people who don't like it because they think its "skunky." The clear bottle is part of the curse of this particular beer and I've had more light damaged Coronas than any other group of beers I can name. The cardboard enclosed 12 pack is where its at. With the prerequisite lime wedge of course. In quite a few cultures and localities the beer is actually MUCH safer to drink than the local water due to the extended boil required to extract and isomerize the alpha acids from the hops used in production. |

I tried dogfish head noble rot and jiahu last couple days
noble rot - not bad, but tastes more like wine/champagne than beer. at least it's not hoppy jiahu - pretty good. can definitely taste the honey and some of the fruit. enjoyed it quite a bit. also I tried some vanilla porter from costco. it was not hoppy, but so disgusting i literally couldn't even take a sip. *edit: I think it's called Breckenridge Vanilla Porter. disgusting |

pretty sure I've tried the 90 minute, it wasn't bad but I don't remember being really impressed by it. a bit hoppy, no?

Weyerbacker double Simcoe is a better double ipa than dogfish 90, just sayin.

Ahh, I'm quite fond of that brewery ^^
They make some very good stouts too, the "Berserker" being one of my all time favorites. :drool: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441142350 |
Yeah, it was not bitter, it was smooth, strong coffee/espresso taste, complimented perfectly the steak and mushrooms and even was ok with the lobster salad. It even paired good with the dessert. overall loved it
about to have this now: https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/s...G6vYM&usqp=CAY |
