to support lime farmers they need jobs

It's a middle-of-the-road lager. Basically meant to be an alternative drink in places where the tapwater isn't potable. The lime wedge is a part of the brand image, mostly, but Corona is pretty lacking in flavour so it does help.

>>13770836
How do you drink the beer if the lime is blocking it?

>>13770836
the lime is essential as the acid kills the virus

>>13770974
you break the lime

>>13770974
You push it into the beer.
This is known as putting the lime in the cocunut

>>13770974
You usually squeeze the juice and then push it down into the bottle. I don't believe you can get the deposit back for the empty unless you fish the lime out, though.

>>13770987
wow thats a scam. who's behind that jewery, big beer, or big lime?

you can really tell that corona is investing heavily in online marketing since this whole thing started. it's all over reddit, MSM and even here too.

>>13771003
Why do you know what is all over reddit?

>>13771017
because i go there about as frequently as i go to 4chan, and have been doing so for years. and you can do absolutely nothing about this beyond posting a soyjack and saying "dilate". and it still won't stop me :^)

>>13770997
Seeing as the gubmint is usually the one who charges and refunds the deposit, I'm gonna say it's them.
>>13771003
Word association, plus if you hear the word enough it gets into your head. Most of the people posting about Corona aren't paid shills, but then again, it'd be pretty shitty viral marketing if everyone talking about your product was getting paid for it.

>>13771031
no. no.. i do not like this post. downvoted

>>13771031
im seething

>>13770836
>and why would you add lime flavor to it?
A little acidity is good. It's why people like sour beers. But Corona is also pretty much always skunked and has off flavors and the lime covers that up.

>>13771031
Do we still do that thing where we pretend that there isn't significant overlap between the user bases of both sites, and then further pretend to get mad that someone would go on two popular forums?

I heard lime was originally to keep flies away

>>13770836
>and why would you add lime flavor to it?
Mexicans like putting a lime wedge in beer.
It doesn't need to be a Corona, it can be a Bud Light for all they care, they'll put a lime in it.
Corona just co-opted the practice in their advertising, it courts the Hispanic demo.

Dilate.

>consuming anything from Mexico

>>13770836
It was pretty bottom tier. Right down there with American lagers like Budweiser.
You add lime because it's bad and lime isn't.
I don't think it will bounce back. People were buying for the brand, not the product.

>>13770987
If you squeeze it remove it. If you push it in it can stew, but much like tea it'll start tasting bad if you leave it in too long.

>>13770836
Its a shitty beer
Also you dont add lime juice to a beer

>>13771773
Only pendejos do that. I am a mexican citizen.

>>13773448
Recommend me some awesome Mexican beer cocktail, please. Shandy doesn't do any justice to me.

corona is skunked beer ruined by UV light

https://vinepair.com/wine-blog/green-bottled-beer-smells-like-skunk-so-why-do-companies-keep-producing-it/

the lime is there to make it barely palatable

Corona with lime is pretty nice to drink in the Summer sun because it's so weak and mild. I don't want to drink a heavy stout on a hot day for example.
I usually just go with a local lager instead, though, since Corona is kind of expensive in Europe because it's imported.

>>13773448
Where's the harm

I had the misfortune of drinking a corona as the first beer I ever had and almost swore off alcohol because of how shit it was.

>>13770836
No i dont want to drink coronavirus

Do people really decide to stop consuming a product if it ends up coincidentally sharing a name with something bad like a virus?

I feel like even idiots should know better, its just weird to me.

>>13770870
This. I liken it to almost a sparkling water in its,flavor profile and mouthfeel, actually.

>>13770836
When I was in Mexico all the locals drank Modelo. Corona is overpriced pisswater for stupid gringos.

>>13770836
who cares if it good if it gives you the virus

>>13770836
EW VIRUS!!!!!!!!

>>13773858
The lime is antiseptic.

>>13770836
I'm sorry but I don't drink it because it has the coronavirus and I don't want to die.

>>13773453
Green and Red on the right are delicious, they just made a mango chile one but it tastes too sweet to me.

>>13770836
omg why did you show a pic of corona now im gonna get virus!!!!!!!!1!!1!1????1.1,

>>13770836
Normie beer for people that don't like beer but wanna drink it to be social. Favorite of basic white bitches.
