Yep, Corona is the shittiest of the mexi-lagers. And the most expensive to boot.

In general though, these beers are served with salt and lime, which makes them quite tasty. Alternatively, they can be made into Micheladas, which I think are thoroughly vomitous but personally know dozens of people that swear by em.

Nobody I know drinks it straight if they don't have to

I just drink it for the slightly higher alcohol content.

I know one thing, beer isn't supposed to be kept on a clear bottle because the sun fucks it up. That being said, miller high life bottles are one of the best beers known to man. Corona? One of the most pathetic and disgusting beers ever. I'd rather drink Mexican water

Sixes of good beer is $20ish. All alcohol is expensive here so it's not really remarkable. Six packs are especially poor value though, 24 bottle cartons are the better value way to buy beer though at $45 for Coronas and $55-$60 for stuff that actually tastes good.

This. No one drinks Corona, or any Mexican beer for that matter, straight. It is enhanced tenfold when salt and lime are added to the picture.

>>5550210
It's not just the beer that's expensive. Bottom shelf liquor starts at $30 if you're lucky and it's $45 for the Bombay Sapphire/Tanqueray kind of tier.

Pay is good here though, so it's not really that bad. It's rent that's the killer.

Rent? Why don't you own a house? Sometimes the mortgage payment is around the same price as rent.

You guys don't have like really, dirt cheap beer or liquors? I mean that if you're going to drink with guests or just for yourself, shelling out a few bucks for something that tastes good isn't a bad idea. But what if you throw a party or something? Don't you have cheaply available alcohol?

The property industry in Australia is fucked up. Prices for properties are kept high by how lucrative property industry is. The people who can afford to own property are the people who already have investment properties to guarantee their loans.

The idea that you can or should just buy a house just like whenever on a board primarily populated by young people is pretty dumb too.

Not sure if this is an unpopular opinion, but Land Shark is a much better low-tier lager than Corona.

Read somewhere (probably on here so take it with a grain of salt) that Corona actually exposes their beer to light to skunk it, to give it that trademark skunky flavor. I go with Modelo Especial or Negra Modelo for a Mexican beer, depending on what's available.

I used to say that, but its like, a gin that is good in G&T but sucks straight isn't admonished as a bad gin, just one you use for G&Ts.

It's so pervasive in the mexican been marketplace that it's really not an addition, per se, but a requirement. Any place serving it to you "will" have lime and salt because it doesn't just benefit from it, it's a prerequisite of it

>> No.5552794

>>5552712
Not unpopular, but an entierly different style. Along the same lines, as >>5552769 mentioned, the characteristic of the mexilager style is a slightly skunked flavor.
Failing that, it becomes a Steam style lager, which is good in its own accord, but completely dffferent
