DISQUS

Your topic of Mexican beer is perhaps a little broad. Furthermore much of Mexican beer had been greatly influenced by Europeans especially the Germans and Austrians. This is why so many of their (Mexican) beers are Vienna-style largers and pilsners.

While I agree that Pacifico is slightly better than Corona, I feel that they are akin to tasting Michelob and Bud Light. One must remember that these two beers are owned and brewed by the same company - Grupo Modelo. This company, ironically is owned 50% by Anheuser-Busch - you know, the Bud, Michelob and Natural light etc. folks.

Mexican beer, like the U.S., is predominantly a homogenous sampling of pilsner-like beers. I have been hearing a buzz about the resurgence of Mexican microbreweries. I cannot speak of these but there is hope that the Mexican people will demand real beer as I and many others here in the U.S do.

I agree with SS. Maybe take this topic and do a comparison of as many Mexican beers as you can get around here (check Hannafords). What about Sol, Dos Equis, and my favorite, Negro Modelo?

I know it would be a chore, but sometimes you have to force yourself to do things in the name of your career... :)
