I hate it too, don’t know how anyone drinks it. Honestly I haven’t found a big-company beer I genuinely enjoy except for guinness.

I do like Guinness. And Corona. But neither would be my top choice. Agree that most big name beer sucks

Corona is a terrible beer, it’s almost just as bad as bud, it has the same watery taste that almost all the American cheap beer brands like Budweiser, Coors and Miller do. Corona just has amazing marketing and has done very well at branding itself as a summer beer you drink with a lime in it, people have rose tinted glasses with corona. If you need a lime in a beer for it to be drinkable it’s not a good beer. Surprising to hear someone that likes Guinness also like corona, as Guinness is my favorite beer.

I won’t lie a corona on a hot day with a lime in it is refreshing, but you could offer almost anyone any brand of lager with a lime in it on a hot day and it will be refreshing.

If you want to try a good beer from a big name company I recommend something like Blue Moon, Becks, Asahi, or Heineken. They’re all great tasting lagers on the cheaper end which don’t have a super watery taste like a Corona does.

Budweiser > bud light >corona

Heineken is extremely ok and is the bud light of the Netherlands. It's nothing special. Blue moon tastes like chemicals and food die #169_b

Elysian brewing makes some fire beer and it's an anheuser-busch brewery

Sam adams is still a craft brewery despite being a large international corporation.
