Were you to ask most craft brewers – at least if you went back in time a little – for their thoughts on Corona, you'd find most telling you they were on a mission to create beers that were little or nothing like the global dominator. Yet as attitudes to lagers have changed, and many brewers have realised they need to bring more mainstream drinkers into the fold, you're more likely to find offerings like this: a lager that by its very name let's you know what's going on.
Wedge pours golden and bright as: a session beer with a little sweetness enlivened by citrusy Aussie and Kiwi hops. There's little in the way of bitterness, and a corny mid-palate, characteristics that place it very much in crafty Corona territory.
