I already support enough Mexicans, why would I spend money on their beer and help support the ones that are still there?

Thsts one reason beer was invented to begin with.  

They had Czech brewmeisters under emperor Maximilian

They can make beer


It's also why many Mexicans like polka, although I still don't get how that rubbed off on the culture in only a few years, especially given the popular portrayal of the Mexican Emperor in Mexico.


Maximilian seems quite revered in some parts - I dare say roughly the parts that overlap with Venustiano Carranza's old base.



Interesting.  If you talk to most of my family in Mexico, you'd think Maximilian was the devil.  Conversely, they talk about the murderous, socialist Benito Juarez like he's some kind of saint (of course, a good junk of them are PRD supporters).  Then again, I've read some of my mom's history books she had to read in school in Mexico and some of the history in there is just .  Might as well be labeled a People's History, or just PRI propaganda.  Some of it is almost pure fiction.

I'm curious as to which samples you're referring (and I assume in terms of Carranza's base of support you're referring to northeastern Mexico).

I do find it interesting how if you have something taught by the schools long enough even a lie can be treated as the truth.  Seeing some of the curriculum down there and how it is accepted as truth (even my mom, who has since become well-educated here in the U.S., parrots the lies as truth) is a part of what made me skeptical of state involvement in education.

Lagers in general don't seem to do much for me anymore.  All of my favourite beers are ales of some form or another (mostly Belgian varieties).  When I first started drinking beer, all I'd drink were lagers, though.

Fuck, just look at how certain words like "UN" cause kneejerk, irrational reactions here.  

As for my sample, it's all pretty much mid to upper middle folks from Guadalajara to Puebla.  I think of south of Mexico city as Zapata territory, and the north as Villa territory.  I realize Villa really didn't operate in the northeast, and that Carranza had actually been a governor in one of those states, but that's just my stereotype - probably more a result of never having spent any time in that part of Mexico (I think of Monterrey as far north).  It would be interesting to see Pew do a poll to that end.

I like a good Vienna lager or Munich dunkel.

I was drinking almost exclusively ales, but it's shortsighted to limit yourself to a single kind of anything like food or drink.

There's a local Vienna lager they distribute around here - Devils Backbone - that is just heavenly.

So far, my all time favorite beer is "Republika Pilsner" that is brewed somewhere around London and only available in the UK.  

Yeah, I like me my lagers.

FWIW - San Miquel is made in the Philippines.  The old man would drink it occasionally as the hops they used didn't give him headaches.

Modulo Especial or Negra Modelo, depending on meal/mood.  But more likely a Shiner Bock or margarita. ;)

I don't limit myself in terms of what I try, it just so happens that of what I try, the ones I like the most tend to be ales, although there are lagers I like (I like both types of beers you mentioned, for example).  I like culinary diversity.  At my home each meal is like eating in a different country.  There are too many good things in this world to become stuck on one thing or become provincial.

I haven't spent too much time in that area; most of my time in Mexico has been spent in Nayarit, as that's where most of my family is concentrated.  Interestingly, there are a couple of branches of my family that descend from Austrians who came to work for the Imperial Mexican government in the 1860s.  They still look stereotypically German and have German names in many cases.  Not sure about their politics today, though.  Culturally they aren't really all that Austrian anymore.

As for the UN, I can see that, although there are rational reasons to strongly oppose the UN, as I do (I personally support its dissolution).  As an example it doesn't seem to be as extensive or profound as what I've seen parroted by Mexicans.  For some epochs of history it's like we live in alternate realities or something.

I may see if Devil's Backbone has made it out here.  The stores out here have become surprisingly diverse in their offerings in the last few years, with many exotic beers and microbrews from around the country and the world.  It's a good time to be a beer drinker.
