Dos Equis:
Good Evening my dear friends.  It is with great sadness that I must bring you news of another untimely demise in the beer world.  This beer, taken before it’s time was actually a decent beer, Dos Equis.  Unlike it’s second cousin (twice removed) Corona Extra that met a similar fate back earlier this year, this death was wholly unnecessary since Dos Equis is actually drinkable by itself.  As you see in the photo, the cause of death is still uncertain, may it be from drowning or accidental hanging since we can clearly see a noose like appendage on the glass (evidence note: this neat little number may or may not have come home with me).  Whatever the cause, it is a blue day in beerville.  This bottle will not be able to give someone the pleasure of it’s golden color or it’s sweet nose.  Nor will it ever allow someone to taste a beer that has smooth malt flavors and a clean and slightly hoppy aftertaste.  Such a sad loss.  It should have been the light version of the previous “suicide” but, alas, people in the area of town that this bulldog was bought in, drank the supply dry.  Oh whoa to those souls, for they have really bad taste.   By itself, with a lime, Dos Equis is a good Mexican beer best enjoyed with a good dish.
