What is your vote?
Inevitably, Anytime I go somewhere my parents are, their house or otherwise, they have boxes of Corona Light. Not EVEN Corona Extra, oh no...Even that would be too much to ask. I inevitably ask if they have anything better, something that isn't pretty much the worst beer in the world, akin to crap. INEVITABLY I get told their beer tastes just fine and nothings wrong with it. I'm not even sure that's a valid opinion, It seems pretty factual to me that no beer enthusiast would -ever- rate corona as a good beer. But I digress.
You can't buy Corona light here in germany (I guess) but who would? Extra isn't really good in the first place. If you like you don't like beer.
I only know a single brewery (Rothaus) that is capable of producing a good tasting light beer.
Someone at the place explained me, that they combine two differend methods at very long amount of time. I think the vague idea is to filter flavours, that would be lost at the normal process first, then remove all acohol and then rebrew it with the old flavours. They even change the original mixture to make up for any lost flavour and end up with 0,0% alc. Its a bit more matly and a bit less bitter than the original - but thats it.
They haven't produced light beer bevore, because any other method kills most of the beer's flavour: so it IS a valid opinion to say corona light is no good!
