On the subject of dark beer

This may come as a surprize, there is a decent dark beer that is a product of Mexico. It's Negra Modelo. I first experienced this brew two years ago while dining at Don Pablos in Manassas, Va. It's priced about the same as Corona. If you like dark beer, especially if you like smooth dark beer, this brew is the ticket. There are few dark beers that will stay with you without producing a full or bloated feeling . . . this is one of them! The last beer of the round is as great as the first . . . kind of like Corona, if it's a long party night . . . NM Dark will hang with you without losing its interest or taste. Good stuff . . . about $30.00 a case.
