I've spent a little time considering my response to this, and I've decided upon:

Bollocks. Complete and total bollocks.

Oddbins sell some of the best beer, if that's any help to anyone.

you are with the majority, most people like sol, i myself like the more bitter taste of corona, but most people like sol better; it's also served in 90% of bars here in mexico.

ohh and spanish beer kicks ass too.

the thing i wonder about corona is why it is always served with a lime considering that no other beers are?

a popular way of drinking beer here is michelada style, which is by putting lemon and salt on the mug, the people who market corona worldwide probably think it's a good way to make it seem like something different in the mind of the consumer, i personally am not crazy about michelada and usually avoid it.

true, sol is lighter than most beers so you can gulp it down easily and get thrashed.

Are you familiar with the beers form Guatemala and El Salvador I posted a few pages back? Omaha has a huge population of Gautemalans and El Salvadorans, besides bringing their excellent cusine, they also made their beers brand names in this city.

i've seen them in new york; we're very closed off here in mexico to other place's beers, i mean, it's hard seeing a heineken go by!!! we get bud, some places have miller, coors was around a couple of years ago; the craze here now is guiness, irish style bars are popping out everywhere and packed as fuck and you can even get the bottled guiness in some supermarkets, we get sapporo on some sushi bars and japanese supermarkets, we get some argentinian beers and some spanish beers. that's about it.

[Toilet & Bowels]

hmm, i've yet to be convinced by japanese beer

[Cantankerous]

i've never had any japanese beer.

 

this is really good, it's brazillian.

[Пятхъдесят Шест]

I've never had Brazilian beer. I wonder how easy that would be to pick up somewhere around here.

[Toilet & Bowels]

this brazilian beer seems to have become quite popular in london in the last few months, it's ok, very sweet for a lager

You know, we sound like a bunch of drunks, going on and on about beer.

Terrific.
