Corona Extra

Carona was once a excellent beer but since being brewed and bottled in China it has turned into the worst tasting cr#p ever. Mexican beer from China yuck don't waste your money on this rubbish. Show details

It tasted so bad I thought the beer was off and so I checked the date but it was well within the best before. Then I noticed it was made in China. It’s got a weird chemical aftertaste and is really disgusting and nothing like the original Corona. I’m not sure what to do with the rest of the case as it’s pretty much undrinkable. Show details

I used to dislike Corona. Was a bland watery weak American style beer. I was recently in China at a cafe that only stocked Corona. I reluctantly bought one because it was a hot day and felt like a beer. To my surprise it was delicious and more like a good German style lager. On return to Australia I note the Aussie version is also made in China. I like it as well. Show details

Always love this beer – Refreshing taste always find my way back to drinking Corona, these days I find it taste better without the lemon or lime cause I love the taste of Corona extra Show details

Corona is a great beer, bottles very dirty – I do really enjoy Corona extra. The bottles need to be cleaned before shipping to Canada. This won't stop me from drinking this beer. Only wish bottles were clean in appearance.

Bought a carton of this a while ago and noticed it tasted different. It was a bit like it was diluted . The taste just wasn't right . I had another one and started to get bloated and uncomfortable . Then I read the back of the bottle " made in China !! " I could not finish the carton and ended up pouring out 12 of the bottles and take them to the… Read more

recycling. I have never thrown out Corona before as it was a real easy drinking session beer. Will never buy it again unless I can find the original Mexican brew.

Lost its pop! I loved opening coronas and hearing the loud pop as the cap flew off into the air. Sadly the pop has gone … the cap now flops to the floor. I mentioned this to a friend and he said it’s now brewed in China. Whiskey, tango, foxtrot! Is this a coincidence? There is now also a strange aftertaste left in your mouth. Disappointed Show details

Lost its mojo. I have given up on Corona since it’s no longer brewed in Mexico. Buying Sol or Balter as I have no confidence in Coronas ability to control quality…despite their assurances.

Now brewed in china and undrinkable; highly carbonated with a taste reminiscent of Tooheys. I wouldn't mind, except it's marketed as a Mexican beer and is more expensive than ever, despite the smaller supply chain and cheaper operating costs. Misleading. Show details

Terrible beer. Made in China. The branding gives the impression it is imported from Mexico but you have to squint to find out that it’s made in China. Taste very different from the authentic one and f*ck that brand for selling out and happily misleading customers and selling at full prices as well. Never buying Mexican, Chinese or other varieties again. Show details

Ripped off by stealth – Had some corona beer at a Mexican restaurant the other evening to my surprise I read on the bottle made in China won't be buying that brand anymore very disappointing. Show details

Crap Corona, made in China, bring back the real one from Mexico – What is happening? Us, Australia & our bro's in New Zealand have to put up with Corona Extra made in bloody China, well bollocks to that pal. I won't be drinking that crap anymore....We deserve the real stuff, Made in Mexico, plus the bugger have dropped the alcohol to 4.5% when the real stuff is 5%. Come on guys, even the price as gone up, we might be at the bottom of the world, but we are on top of lovin our BEER!!!!!! Show details

Profitability before taste – Is china has a pure water ? Or is a recycled water from polluted rivers quality has-been forgotten profitably came first what a waste Show details

It FIZZES uncontrollably – Recently my Corona has tasted weird and has FIZZED !! No matter how clean the lime or lemon slice (or none as the case may be) it FIZZES and bubbles up and overflows the neck of the bottle copiously. EVERY bottle for weeks. I saw on the bottle it was brewed in China, so thought it was my fault because I bought a cheap import box from Aldi. But… Read more

NO - same reaction from bottles bought in every brand store over past few weeks - all now brewed in China. Its simply awful. Can't drink it anymore.

This is a very poor substitute – Purchased my usual large carton of Corona (drinking this since 1966 after a visit to Mexico) after first taste thought something wrong with brew then came the dreaded trots never gave the beer a thought till noticed brewed in china on bottle (very fine print) drank a bottle latter in week same result just to convince myself tried another bottle a… Read more

week later same result so I now have a carton o China's Corona to dispose off sure hope disposal will not damage the environment as it sure upet me.

Now made is china - forget it – Just discovered this stuff is now made in china There goes that. Never drinking it again. Show details

Taste like crap – I first noticed it when it didn't pop and when I tasted it I thought that tastes like crap then checked carton made in China you have lost another customer Show details

Not good anymore – Not good anymore... used to be good beer before brewing in China.

How depressing – I absolutely loved this beer and suddenly I noticed it didn't taste very good. I ignored it for a while until I found out it was changed to Chinese! WT!!! What a depressing time we live in that everything needs to be Chinese, and even my previously favourite beer! I always bought slabs of this beer and ditto with my family for such a long time. We have all stopped buying and drinking it. What a shame :( Show details

Corona loses its crown – If I could give this Chinese Corona a zero star I would have. Nothing like the original, defending Corona is now impossible, I’m looking for a new beer. Show details

Mexican Corona Availability – After reading all the reviews from despondant ex Corona beer drinkers, I thought I would give them some good news - Mexican Corona is still available in Australia but you need to go to independant stores who deal with parallel importers.

Shocked to be tricked – One of my beer stories was that corona is not made by CUB like so many foreign beers but actually came from Mexico. Now it does not, I have been tricked by underhand marketing and will never buy this stuff again .

Pathetic chinese crap – They think we wouldn't notice how stupid could they be first sip I knew their was something wrong and to my surprise MADE AND BREWED IN CHINA remove china before we Remove corona beers from our life's which alot of people already have I could imagine...sack the person who thought off it... Show details

Corona Extra beer now Chinese – It's a shame ProductReview does not have fractions of a rating star since one star is too many for Chinese Corona Extra beer. Gave up beer for a year (took up Scotch!) but with very hot weather and a shopper docket I was enticed to buy a 12 bottle pack of Corona Extra beers. I was under the stupid impression that Corona once said that, unlike… Read more

other beer brands that now make their beers in other countries under license, "Corona will NEVER do this and will always be made in Mexico" or words to that effect. I nearly choked when I read on the bottle it was made in China. Sorry marketing department, you have lost me for good as both a drinking customer BUT also as an advocate for your brew. As they say, one peeved customer tells 10 other potential customers. These companies just don't get what turns on and off their customers. Reading other negative reviews regarding the 'taste' of the Corona beer made in China, I thought back to the first one I drank a week or so ago. And I do remember thinking it was not the same reaction to Corona beer I have had in the past. I put it down to not having one for well over a year but maybe it was the difference between brewing in Mexico versus China???

No Corona ! – I also was a Corona advocate , that was until i was advised it is now MADE IN CHINA ! Mexican beer is NOT Mexican beer if its made and brewed in China and regardless of that who knows what the hell goes into the brew now, It certainly is different even when you pop the cap and has a slight but different taste. Thanks for the Memories AB InBev (Owners of Corona) What a dumb move. Show details
