Humble question, marcos, do you often compare apples to oranges? I like both, how about you? Cheers, Svejk abitare.it

50 is the only beer that is top fermented in Canada. Canada makes German "style" beers that while slightly more alcoholic than American are vastly inferior beers. Mexican beers like Corona are far superior because they uses better hops and have more malt flavour because of the water they use. The Southern Ontario water used in Canadian Beers is too hard. That is also why Manitoba beer is so much better. They use softer more acidic water that does not over dissolve the hops. The water and the fermentation time and aging time and temperature are the keys. If you age at low temperature you can avoid bacteria. You can taste the difference good water makes in many local products such as cheese and soda pop all over Ontario. With soft water the taste of flavouring agents is much more subtle but more noticeable too. Good beer can be brewed without fines and taking time in fermentation and aging and avoiding airborne bacteria as they do in France with wine, by brewing in special sterile cellars. The quick pressure fermented beers in dirty kettles that makes CDN beers make a more bitter overly hoppy brew. When Colt 45 was introduced in Canada it immediately became popular as it did not use hops. It was a malt ale so tasted "better". The Mexican brewmasters use older slower technology and actually use better water believe it or not. They are exclusively of German descent. The CDNs beer makers by contrast are all Jewish and will not take any advice from the Germans at all, so suffer by producing poorer beers. Formosa was the best selling beer in Ontario at one time which had at the turn of the century perhaps several hundred breweries. EC<:-}
