I remember going to Canada with my folks when I was sixteen. At that time, the only way you could buy cold beer was to sit down in an establishment
and drink it right there. I remember my Dad commenting how expensive the beer was up there (nothing's changed, apparently  )
Anyway, I also recall him having to buy warm beer at some kind of package sales store, taking it back to the hotel room and filling the bathroom sink
with water and ice and throwing the beer in.
This thought never left me, "here is this country that's basically cold all the time, AND YOU CANT GET A COLD BEER TO GO???!!!! WTF???

Instead of like the English " Cold sandwiches and warm beer "
The Mexico version will be "Cold taco's and warm beer"
Sorry if some of you are not old enough to remember the English version, but most of you are....
Since I've given up all hope, I feel much better

Back in The Day most Mexicanos preferred their cerveza 'temprano'.
I wonder what they're gonna do for vehicle acondicionado in Tierra del Juevos Hielados (Mexicali). 
I don't have a BUCKET LIST, but I do have a F***- IT LIST a mile long!

The Philippines is the only place I have been where no cold beer could be found. San Miguel on ice, that's nice! Ok, it was the 80's.

It sounds like Utah where you can't buy a bottle of cold wine. The State run liquor stores don't even have coolers.

I buy a lot of wine, but cannot remember buying it from a refrigerator case for immediate consumption.
If the wine is not refrigerated, seems pretty simple to put it on ice or in fridge at home, eh?
Woke!

Baja towns are filthy messes due to litter. Mexico would be wise to pass laws to prevent littering, because it is apparent that too many Mexicans are
slobs that litter willy nilly.
Plastic bag bans are good. People can be trained to use reusable bags, even knuckle draggers like bajalitterbugtrailrider

Hong Kong 1959 the China Fleet Club. We would drink with British and Aussie sailors. The Brits had to order 3 or 4 beers ahead to let them warm. Like
us, the Aussies drank it cold.
We would play 'The Battle of New Orleans' over and over to get their goat. They were good guys and would respond 'Go home Yanks'. The only fights I
saw was between USA Destroyer sailors vs the USA Aircraft Carrier wimps.
