Tips

Corona is not available on tap but only in bottle form. Consumers outside of Mexico drink the beverage with a lime wedge unlike the Mexican people who typically drink it as is. Corona recommends that consumers should consider the nutritional content of any type of Corona beer before drinking the beverage. Always drink responsibly and do not drive after consuming alcoholic beverages.
