Mexican beer
Why can’t we get a good selection of Mexican beer in Toronto? Whenever I look for it, whether in a restaurant or in a beer store, it is always the same dreary selection. Dos Equis Dark (never the light, which is made by a...

beer in fridge
I put beer and soft drinks in the fridge for company but have quite a bit left over. My hubbie and I are wine drinkers so it would take forever to finish off what’s left. Can I “unrefrigerate” the beer and soda...

canadian beer that tastes like mexican beer
Of the hundred canadian beers available in the beer store, is there one that is close to Sol? I’m trying to find a canadian beer that gives me the same taste, for these long hot sweaty mexican style summer days.

Weekend of diversity: Mayan Sol, Cyrano's Bistrot, and Afghan Restaurant
Three new restaurants for me this weekend! How sad that it’s Monday. Friday night was Guatemalan food at Mayan Sol, 3830 W. Lawrence. This is a corner storefront with pastoral paintings on the walls and a pleasant, quiet...

Beer recs for backyard bbq
Brick, etc...) The suggestions for Sol (and maybe Corona) are good too as those beers are light and refreshing. I also agree with the post about PBR...it makes a great, cheap, underrated beer, and it’s not too heavy. And...

beer bottle color theory
I have a theory that: Beer in brown bottles taste the best, like Bass, Red Stripe, Brooklyn Lager, Quilmes, Dos Equis, Negro Modelo, Pacifico, etc. Beer in green bottles always tastes “skunked”, like Heineken, Molson,...

The proper serving of beer
, my two favorite mexican beers are Negro Modelo and Tecate and I really hate it when they assume I want lime in my beer just because it comes from Mexico. That stuff only works for those people who drink Corona, Sol, Miller...

Rotation Beers for your fridge
carbonation of their beers makes them much tastier in my opinion. When I want something really light to drink, I like Sol. And Rogue’s hazelnut brown has been making more and more frequent appearances, even though the quality...

Worst Beer Ever?
I generally enjoy almost any beer. I stay away from Bud,Coors, and Miller, I just don’t get anything out of them. But as one of the only beers I’ve ever truly despised, Old Speckled Hen has got to be it. I drank it as...

Best Lager beer in the World!
Lager is a pretty broad category which includes a lot of rich malty beers as well (i.e bock, doppelbock, etc). And having said that I wouldn’t think that given a choice many of us would reach for a doppelbock or “warm...

Earlier in the week, I stopped by Havana Sol for Happy Hour (M-F 4-6). The deals are $4 mojitos, $2 draft beers and $3 well drinks. They only serve sandwiches for lunch, so I ordered dinner which came with a large basket of...

Sol y Azul in Old Town Pas- has anyone tried it? Reviews?
I seem to recall having shrimp tacos (beer-battered?), which were good. They offer you several choices of rice and beans. Again, if you have been to Border Grill, it’s almost the same. Funny, I remember the space much more...

Is ginger beer the same as ginger ale?
Good ginger beer is spicy, refreshing, and sweet but not cloying. Bad ginger beer tastes like Pine Sol. One of the only mixed drinks I enjoy regularly is the dark & stormy: ginger beer & spiced rum over ice. I’m always on...

Are there any good Latin American beers?
There’s a Latino Market near me that has some Latino beers I haven’t tried before. I’m just wondering if there is anything good that gets imported to the US? Are there good beers that don’t make it here?...
