Old Chicago, Cinco de Mayo Tour


I'm not sure why I find myself at Old Chicago all the time. Maybe it's the sub-par heart-attck food? But most likely it's because of the beer selection and TVs. Long story short, right now they're featuring a Cinco de Mayo tour. Overall it's pretty lame. The beers on the tour are your run of the mill Mexican beers: Dos Equis, Corona, Negra Modelo and Pacifico. If you ask any white person what Mexican beer they can think of, this list pretty much covers it. It's like a Cash-cab Red light challenge. Lame.

I want some exotic Mexican brew. 'Cmon Old Chicago, drive down to Tijuana, make some shady negotiations and bring back some real Mexican beer. Give me something that smells like Selma Hayak, tastes like Antonio Banderas, and gives you a hangover like Cheech. I mean, I can get your list at Albertson's.

The one redeeming thing about the tour is the t-shirt you get for completing it. I can't find a picture, but just imagine a brown shirt (obviously) with sombrero-wearing beer bottles.

Okay BeerBloggers, enlighten this blistering sunburner about some great Mexi beers.

Dos Equis: made in Mexico; founded/brewed by a German--wouldn't we like to know that guy's life story?

Sol

This beer has the image of "Mexican Miller High Life" (i.e. 400 bottles for 10 pesetas)but tastes like Corona...mixed with Miller High Life.

El champagne??? Yes please.
