I had Dos Equis for the first time last night. Every time I've wanted to get it, the lager (the one advertised in the commercials) was never on shelves; it was always the amber ale. I finally find the one I'm looking for last night. First impression was: Damn, this shit is good! It is super light, though! Now, I've never had a non-alcoholic beer, but Dos Equis tasted so light that it had to be non-alcoholic. Or so I thought. The alcohol percentage wasn't listed on the bottles or the 6-pack carrier. Don't you hate that? Anyway, I searched for it and found that it's 4.8%. Surprising. A little on the weak side, but surprising nonetheless. That's not bad, though, considering how light it tastes. Has anyone had Dos Equis? Do you know what I'm talking about? This amazes me. But ... -- there is always a "but" -- it still doesn't compete with Budweiser. Hands-down, still the number-one beer for me.
I would like to know what is everyone's favorite beer to drink, or do you have any suggestions for me to try? There are still ones for me try out there. Still conducting taste tests, if you will.
