So, Corona Beer Sales Are Down?

[MineralMan]

Hmm...I never did understand why I would buy a beer that need lime to make it drinkable. That never made sense to me. Dos Equis for me, thanks.

[Ferrets are Cool]

1. That made me chuckle. Thanks nt

[MineralMan]

4. That's often my goal!

2. A side effect of the Trump virus?

Becks is my preferred beer.

3. I'm not a fan of German-style beers.

8. Are you referring to Dos Equis amber?

Because, that's actually a German/Vienna-style beer. The original brewer was a German-born man named Wilhelm Hasse.

[MineralMan]

11. Yes, but I'm just giving my correspondent a hard time.

All of the Mexican beers are German-style, really.

Bock Bock!

5. Guinness is good for you

[MineralMan]

7. Indeed. A Pint is Food Indeed!

14. Guinness Extra Stout: It's not just for breakfast anymore! nt

6. I prefer Bohemia, myself.

But, I would never turn down a Dos Equis. I had a Corona once. I was at an outdoor gathering. I had drank about a third of it, and set it down next to my chair, when someone accidentally kicked it over. I wasn't even mad. They did me a favor. I just felt bad for the grass, having to be coated with that skunky, sulfurous crap. Corona is Exhibit A of why I never buy beer that's in clear bottles. It's bad enough without the skunkiness of being light-struck.

9. I'm also partial to Negra Modelo.

However, I'm not that much for drinking beer in the first place.

[GoCubsGo]

10. Also an excellent alternative.

I've cut way back, too. Can't afford all those empty calories.

12. My mom thought Ryder would go out of business after Oklahoma City.

Hell, they didn't blow up the building. Two domestic terrorists did.

13. Not in my bodega

We're mostly laughing at the 38% of Americans that are total pendejos. I drink Guinness Stout, btw, and only on occasion.

15. Corona virus and "Lime" disease....I won't drink it

[abqtommy]

16. I can handle limes, lemons or do without. Just don't touch my Negra Modelo, one of Mexico's

gifts to the world.
