Product of: Product of Mexico Mexico

Brewed with some 40% rice and a relatively low proportion of hops, this very light bodied lager is sold in a distinctive clear screen printed bottle. The bizarre trend for drinking Corona with a lime wedge pushed into the neck of the bottle was started by American tourists and simply caught on.

Starchy rice evident on a lacklustre finish.
