I notice that Corona is the beer of choice for those who are unsophisticated about beer. I must say that it's marketed very well and cheaply priced so hence the appeal with the younger crowd who just don't know better.

I laugh when people go to Mexican restaurants and order a Corona like they think they are being authentic. Most people from Mexico wouldn't touch the stuff. If you want to order a Mexican beer without looking like a dweeb, order a Dos Equis or a Negra Modelo.

When I was younger, the hoodlum crowd drank malt liquor like Colt 45. Now that stuff is nasty and will give you a throbbing headache the next morning.

The hoodlum crowd that I referred to is from Mexico and Honduras, mostly.

My first (legal) drink was a Schlitz Malt Liquor at the enlisted club at Camp Lejeune. I remember thinking "THIS is what all the fuss is about?! Agghk!" I finished it up and went back to the squad bay and downed a couple of aspirin.

Now I usually drink scotch or a local microbrew. Foggy Bottom Ale and Old Dominion Ale are passable. There is a brewery in Fredericksburg called "Blue and Gray", which I am keen to try.

Negra Modelo or Bohemia.

I remember buying corona in mexico by the case when I was young. The next week we'd go back and turn in the bottles and get another case. I think with the deposit a case was around $1.65 there was a reason for this...corona is skank beer. LOL

I never drink beer which require that I stick wedges of lime in it to tolerate the beer's taste.
