Living in sweltering Texas heat, sometimes Corona is all you can drink. Anything "heavier" just makes you feel like a bloated fleshball of sweat.

I concur, in actual sweltering heat, Ill take a Corona over pretty well anything else. Whenever I have to work outside the house in the summer, its my drink of choice, goes down easy and you can have quite a bit before you have to stop operating a chainsaw/weedeater/power tiller  ;D
