I never did get the Corona fever. It's far too bland for my tastes. I did like to drink  Coors when I was younger, could drink a whole lot more than I can now, and played vigorous sports. It was quite refreshing after a rugby match. I'd put Corona in that category.

Any site that doesn't recognize the qualities of Leinie Red, or Yeungling Lager is suspect in my book.

OZ...I guess you could interpret my post that way.  I am sure many of us would have never guessed the top 5 sports in the world per your list.  By the way, is soccer a sport? My point was that just because some poll says a beer isnt good doesn't mean I or many can't like it.  I started drinking Mexican beer back in the early 80's.  Corona, DosXX, Modelo, Tecate and some others.  I drink them because I like them and I really don't care what ratebeer or OB says about them.  I guess I am not easily influenced snobish polls as some might be.  In fact, I really like Fosters! ;)

Off on a weekend golf trip with the guys....many Coronas will be consumed, if I can find a Hamms, I'll drink that too. ;)

Im sure that by the time I get back I will be pushing TDT for the top - k spot.

OZ........My point exactly.  +k

Actually, isn't it the opposite of your point?  You said Corona must be good because lots of people buy it.  I pointed out that lots of people dig really stupid things, which would indicate I'm arguing that popularity doesn't correlate to quality.  But maybe I'm wrong and that wasn't what I said.


I agree with the premiss about popularity doesn't mean quality, having said that quality is kind of subjective in many things is it not.  I think beer is a poor category for a quality test as Hamm's in Minnesota would be considered nector of the Gods would it not.  Just the same as Budwieser would be in St Louis.  I think when you talk of taste quality is the one whose taste buds are the judge.

The best beer, without a doubt, is free beer. Next comes good beer, cheap. After that, take what you can get.
If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved.

Snoop, whatever you do, if you have the great fortune to find a Hamm's, do not put any fruit in it!  ;)

Have fun, and keep it in the short grass.  8)

The best is free cold beer, then free beer, then ice cold good beer, then ice cold cheap beer, then good beer, cheap beer, beer, and finally warm beer.

Corona?  Ooph, please.  Must be a SoCal "so cool" thing.

Went to visit friends who just moved to Phoenix and their golf club had 1554 on tap.  Now that's a pleasant surprise.  I'd give it 3 and a half mugs on my rating scale.

The Trippel is very good, too.

you need to copy and paste and then insert the initials for Stevens Hoboken Institute of Technology in the link where the asteriks are.

Here's a story in today's La Crosse Tribune about a three-sport athlete, Sam Pederson, from La Crosse Aquinas, who is headed to St. John's...

The kid's a winner = starting running back on the state championship football team last fall, starting point guard on the state championship team this spring, and currently the starting catcher on the baseball team, which won the state title last spring...

I can only hope and pray my kids go to a school with a principal that cool!

PETA can blow it out their hind ends, and not eating meat can actually cause that!

Now accepting new patients. All bills must be paid in scotch shortly after any services rendered.  Sorry TDT, no problems below the waist.

I'm so glad Michigan tax dollars are going to go pay for that dood's lawyer and even more so to his housing.
How do you even start to be his defense lawyer?

"Ladies and Gentleman of the jury, my client is much like all of you. Approximately half of you are wearing a bra, my client wears bras. Approximately the other half of you can pee standing up, my client can do that too. So as you see he is really just like all of us, is that so wrong? Is being much like you and I really a crime?"
