Why is Corona not popular in Europe

[frostno98]

Didn't see it at many place in Paris or Barcelona, Heineken on the other hand was widely available.

[gummo]

What American beers do you see there?

[mpaschal34]

Probably because Corona is one of the worst tasting beers out there.

Luckily they've made a millions off a successful ad campaign.

[frostno98]

That would have to be zero, not even blue moon. And you won't see any Fords or Chevy's riding around in either France or the Spanish highway, since the roads are built for Cars that are FIAT size.

[mpaschal34]

What, no Blue Moon? But JJ said it was European.

Soon over there likely to see Lagunitas since Heineken bought 50% of company

Laguinitas is a pretty solid brewery. Definitely a fan of their Little Sumpin' Sumpin' Ale.

Never seen it here in Dallas, but will certainly be on the lookout for it. I'm a big fan of Brown Ales that are done right.

[scumbag]

they hate mexicans, obv.

[whareouttogetme]

It is popular in England, usually available and lot's of people drink it. I don't mind it but I prefer Heineken and Peroni

Ginger man bar in uptown has it

Because in Europe we have good German beer or Czech beer and have no need to drink that shit called Corona. It's also more expensive and only -- drink it to show off their 'American way of living'.

Well said, sir. Approved by Czech

[Rudeboy]

Young guys love it over here.

With a slice of lime

Funnily enough that concept had nothing to do with adding a zingy taste.

[Andy117]

Corona is awful, it's the worst mainstream beer available in the US.

[jjgold]

Corona horrific

Poor and minority beer

[packerd_00]

Fosters is big in England for some reason.

Is this a serious question? No beef with you frostno but did you just compare Heineken to Corona and wonder why the latter is beaten out?

JJ, sharpen you educational beer videos, the forum may be in need. What the hell, it's beer and everyone has a different taste...I suppose.

you are asking the impossible here KVB

Europe has good beer and a lot of options, why would they drink Corona? It's the poor man's fancy beer, but it's overrated.

they dont even drink Corona in Mexico and all Mexicans in the US drink Bud

[MinnesotaFats]

In European countries the brewery is allowed to own, operate and finance the retailer in exchange for excuse or limited distribution. It's called a tied house.

In America, post prohibition, we have a mandatory third tear which keeps an arms length between manufacturer and retailer (by law) thus creating more competing and diversity in available products.

[MoMoneyMoVaughn]

Modelo is superior mexican beer.

[packerd_00]

Lol! those were classic ads.

[Vegas39]

Modelo is superior mexican beer.

superior and mexican beer in same sentence

[pavyracer]

For the same reason you don't see Czech or Belgian beers in American bars. It's all about distributors and if a distributor can't get the beer at the bar you visit you won't find it there.

[rpesi9955]

1 probably because it's not very good.

[marcoloco]

foreigners like Europeans love to bash American & Mexican Beers, but on a hot summer day a light beer taste much better than a beer 5%+ I love micro brews but drinking more than 5 and your not going to last too long. If you want a marathon beer which you can last all day on. Lighter/weaker beers are the way to go

[slayer14]

Heineken probable tastes like piss i am into the supper tennants and kestrel super strength cans of drink, it value for money.
