corona is alright it is not the best but sometimes it hits the spot perfectly

it is certainly not as bad as - steel reserve , natural ice , natural ice light, milwalkee's best , milwalkee's best light etc.

i would certainly drink corona over budweiser, coors or miller

it's ok, but only with lime. and only if I'm in the right mood.

I can think of countless stouts, IPAs, etc. that I'd take over it though

hoegaarden!, youngs!, Beamish Red! sacred cow!

Provided you shove a lime in it, its ice cold, and you douse the mouth of the bottle with salt.


Favorite beer for everyday drinking is Miller Lite.

so basically you have to make it cold (so you taste it less), then overwhelm your taste buds with citric acid and salt before ingesting any corona. then, since you can't taste it at all, it's "great."

corona and lime is pretty good, but once you progress to bass, anchor steam, yuengling, carling, carlsberg etc... you sorta keep it as a summertime thing only. and if anyone else mentions beamish i'm going to take a dump under your pillows while you sleep.
 

cronies aren't bad with lime or calamansi

not my favorite, but still good (gives hella hangovers though)

Guess what, most people do get drunk off half a bottle of 80 proof liquor. Just because you can't get drunk off beer doesn't mean other people can't.

BTW, not sure how you can get sick of beer but not of half a bottle of hard liquor.

It's overrated, and barely average without a lime. However, I will concede that Corona has done a great job of establishing its "refreshing on the beach" type of image....and it works very well. Kinda like a placebo effect.

Plus, they're only $1/bottle during happy hour at nearby sushi place here. But then, the pint bottles of Kirin are only $2.50 during happy hour as well, so I usually go for those anyway, and some 2-for-1 sushi. .....Now I'm hungry!

good liquor goes down easy...me and my roommate did some cinamin snops last night that stuff was awsome.

I like beer just don't like it enough to drink the amount it would take me ot get drunk and hung over (although I've never been hungover and i've drank to the point of puking a few times)

Well, schnapps is another story, as it is usually quite sweet and masks the taste of alcohol, not to mention that a lot of schnapps are low in alcohol per volume.

I'm pretty sure you're thinking of Goldschlagger.

The last time I had tequila was such an unpleasant experience (well, the first few hrs were nice) that I haven't had any since. Downed 10 shots in an hr with some friends, and washed it all down with a beer :beer:

everyone knows malt liquor is where its at :)

Olde English is such a classy drink, how could anyone step down to beer from malt?
