OH's favourite beer when we went to the southern US was Corona Beer, made in Mexico, and much better than US beer.

Now it seems that a favourite thing to Google is ..............

"Corona Beer" or "Corona Beer Virus"


who'd have ever thought .................................

I remember Corona orange juice.

Went into town today, and avoided all the people coughing :-0 and we washed our hands particularly well when we got home!

Linda ...............

yes it is more like lager than English beer.

But then US "beer" is generally more lager-like, although it is getting better than it used to be, especially with all the craft breweries.

Isn't Corona the one that was brewed extremely cheaply from sweetcorn kernels for employers to provide for their workers, to keep them quiet, and it was taken up as a fashionable designer beer.
