True but generally you will not see Mexicans drinking Corona. I have spent a lot of time in Mexico since the mid 80’s and what you mostly see consumed by the locals in Tecate and Carta Blanca, and to a lesser extent, Bohemia. Most locals bars don’t even sell Corona, they reserve that for the tourists in the tourist areas. I am not a huge fan of Mexican beer but when I was down there I almost always drank Pacifico or XX Lager (The green label). Of course come Christmas time I used to love picking up some Noche Bueno. Now tequila, give me a nice bottle of Don Julio and I’m a happy camper.
I remember being in a mexican grocery store (in mexico) and they had budweiser for something like $10 a sixpack. Sol, Superior, Dos XX’s not so much.
Tecate, all the way. And if I can’t get it, XX. Although, Carta Blanca isn’t bad, and I like Sol.
Sorry, I was being a beer snob for snob sake. Nothing personal.
I am sure that the locals don’t drink Corona as it is all marketing here in the US. Just like the Dutch don’t sit around drinking that horse piss Heineken. American marketing can sell anything they want.
