My sentiments exactly, except I don't really want to know how they know! TMI ;-)

Brings to mind this little discussion from snopes.com

Getting back to the beer aspects, among suds drinkers a common insult to hurl at a disappointing brew is to claim it "tastes like warm piss." (How these aficionados would know what warm piss tastes like doesn't bear speculating upon.) The connection between beer and urine is twofold: the color of both liquids, plus the causal relationship between the drinking of one to the need to release the other. In Corona's case, believability is further enhanced by the foaminess of the beverage and how the clear glass bottles showcase the beer's yellow color. All beer may be yellow, but only Corona visually reminds buyers of this fact even as it passively sits in the bottle.
