The cleanest finish I know makes this one of the best session beers around. The epitome of summer vacation beer. Light body with simple refreshing taste. Only downside is the vulnerability to being lightstruck, which makes buying a fresh six pack a game of chance. ---Rated via Beer Buddy

Bottling beer in a clear bottle is a death sin, but the guys at Corona have done a helluva marketingh job promoting this beer as "high-class". Watery, and good refreshment, but this is indeed a poor beer.

One of those rare beers we can comfortably say everyone recognizes the appearance of. Literally, even the liquid. It’s that color, over there. It doesn’t smell like much. It tastes more watery than most - which, you gotta admit, isn’t the worst thing, if you’re not trying to taste a beer. Thus, an appropriate binging beverage. Ideal for the game with broomsticks and a frisbee. Palate is pretty unoffensive as well, if absent. Overall, add a lime and don’t think about it, at all. Or anything, at all. Btw, with a lime, it’s probably like a 2.3.

Clássica cerveja mexicana, charmosa, sem grande sabor e com pouco aroma, e que tradicionalmente é consumida com limão, o que mascara mais ainda suas características, tornando-a apenas refescante.

Bottle from MGM, light pale straw color. Some metallic aroma, light fizzy lager with some corn flavoring. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Clear yellow with fast disappearing white head. Aroma.. Corny hops, some malts, lime Sweetish with low bitterness, bit spicy Ehh.. bought it for refreshing purposes.. thou it didnt serve well even at this point. Not much negative. .its drinkable and not unpleasant , thou water with notes of beer it is

first i dont understand why corona is gettin so bad grade, well for sure its not something special, but i guess remind me some good time in my child hood so i do like to buy me some coronos on a shiny afternoon, it really refreshing and little alchohol, but well itspretty expensive however but i guess it worth a try sometimes.

I feared the clear bottle, but there was no skunkiness at all. Looks uninviting with a head that vanishes as quickly as it appeared. Therefore, drink straight from bottle. You won’t miss any aroma as there is none. Maybe some malts which I actually identified as shampoo. Strange, I know. Taste leaves much to be desired. Some grass, mostly watery. Refreshing? Nothing that a Sprite won’t do. Overall pretty disappointing, certainly when you regard the excitement that surrounds this beer.

Bottle. Pale yellow, collapsing dishwater head. Corn/grain aroma slowly fills the entire room, rubber/sulphur, a hint citrus. Watery, surprisingly tasteless, unoffensive - a hint of grain, adjuncts and hop bitterness remains. Not skunked, new GM hops? Lightbodied, sparkly. Light aftertaste, gone before you knew it.

Pours white quickly disappearing head, golden body. Aromas of some cereal and corn. Very slightly bitter and sweet, crisp, highly carbonated.
