I bought a six-pack of 12-oz. Corona today.

[Laffy Kat]

I only drink beer in warm weather and I was going for my first buy of the season today. While in the beer aisle heading for the Blue Moon (no beer snob comments, please) I heard a couple say they'd never buy Corona again, so I looked right at them and grabbed the Corona instead. What's wrong with people?? Anyway, I like it and think I'll stick with it a while.

1. What About Tsing Tao?

You should have told them that Corona is perfectly safe, it's that Chinese beer which is bad. I'm guessing they would have believed you.

2. It's decent...needs the obligatory lime slice though nt

[Laffy Kat]

3. That's what my son said.

He also makes fun of me for drinking Blue Moon, LOL.

6. Only with an orange slice. :-) nt

[Laffy Kat]

11. Yes, I like it with an orange slice....or...without!

4. Get it while you can...

[Laffy Kat]

8. I've got an amazing brewery 1/2 mile from my front door

I've become a beer snob and local beer supporter. I suggest finding a good local brewery and checking out some really fresh beer while supporting your local work force,

Cheers

15. OMG, we have so many in our little town here.

My favorite is right down the street and welcomes (prefers) dogs. I'm not sure when they're opening again. I do enjoy a good IPA.

20. I'm "supporting my local work force"

That's good...I'm going to use that!

12. the Coors of Mexican beers

not bad when it is hot out and there isn't anything better in the cooler.

13. Corona is actually not a very good Mexican

beer - mostly for export. Try Dos Equis (XX) instead. You''ll see the difference.

14. Hahaha

I wonder if the couple that said that didn't actually like the taste of it or they think that brand of beer causes the corona virus. I bet a $5 Joe Biden campaign donation they believe the latter.

[Laffy Kat]

16. I didn't want to strike up a conversation.

For the life of me, I can't figure out what one thing has to do with the other. I honestly believe it's about racism; it's a Mexican beer and that's all it takes.

[Niagara]

19. I don't blame you at all.

You're absolutely correct about racism.

17. My husband likes Corona but the store he goes to took it off the shelves for a couple of months.

Last time he went it was back and he bought some. When he asks me to get one for him I can say, "No, better get it yourself, I don't want to give you Corona."

[Laffy Kat]

18. LOL.

I haven't been down the beer aisle in ages. When I do buy beer in the spring and summer I usually go to a mom and pop liquor store. Our community still does not offer wine in the grocery stores and I'm fine with limiting alcohol sales to liquor stores only; I'd hate to see all the mom and pops go out of business.

21. Me neither

...if by "ages" you mean a couple of long days
