Now there's a beer I could pick out in any blindfolded taste test. It tastes so horrible to me it would be instantly identifiable. Sort of a cross between skunk spray and uncured rubber.

Ratebeer.com users give the following ratings for Mexican lagers:
2.42 Bohemia
2.11 Dos Equis
2.07 Pacifico
1.97 Modelo
1.92 Carta Blanca
1.78 Tecate
1.68 Corona
(1.40 Budweiser, for comparison)
I can't look up Sol, due to a deficiency in ratebeer.com search capacity. But it's not in Mexico's top 50, which means below 1.72.
Sol has a weighted average of 1.66, which is probably within a couple hundredths of its actual average since there are over 700 ratings.
OK...free beer is great. Doesn't matter if it comes from Anheuser-Busch...errr "InBev" or from my friend's garage refrigerator.
HOWEVER...once they start charging for it again, go back to AMERICAN OWNED brewers.
Budweiser is owned by InBev from Belgium. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's traded on the NYSE in ADRs but it's still a foreign company headquarted in Belgium, not St. Louis. And yes, I made a profit when InBev bought all my shares in the stock offer. But I voted against the damn thing!
Miller is SABMiller - SAB is "South African Breweries" - and they're joint ventured with Canadian/UK Molson Coors - another non US megabrewer.\
Pabst? SABMiller brews most of their brands. Figure out who actually brews the stuff you drink. InBev and SABMiller produce a host of private lables.
Want to really buy American? Sam Adams [Boston Beer Company] - now AMERICA'S largest brewer.
