I Was Just Mocking Negra Modelo Yesterday
In a conversation with friends last night, I told some friends that Negra Modelo beer was unpalatable, and that the definition of a Mexican dark beer is beer that is made downstream from
las maquiladoras.
James Lileks, in his alway-amusing column "The Bleat",
disagrees. He dislikes Corona, but can consume Negra Modelo. Of course, I don't care for Corona, Negra Modelo, or Heineken (the other beer in his column, which takes issue with a
Wall Street Journal ranking of favorite beers).
Corona, the number one beer in the United States? What a travesty! What about
Guinness Draught?!
Although one thing that Guinness, Heineken, or any American beer lacks is a young, attractive woman billionaire running the show. Grupo Modelo has
Maria Aramburuzabala, a bachelorette last time I checked. (Attention, my bachelor reader!)
There's only
one way to top a wealthy beer heiress as a mate.
