I noticed there are instances where you can vote twice, so please only vote ONE time.
Debugging software is a real bear sometimes. Perhaps Bajanomad's system administrator can notify VBulletin of the bug in the Polling software?

One you didn't list is Estrella....
No bitter beer taste or laxitive effect. It's been my preference since I discovered it over a year ago. It's a product of Modelo.

Although moast Mexican beers are very good, there is no doubt that PACIFICO is the best drinking beer available in Baja Norte. Imported Mexican beer
tastes different... Up here, I like XX Special Lager, Pacifico, and Tecate. Modelo is okay, as is Corona, in Baja. But Pacifico is consistantly good,
as noted by others.

although i devour more wine these days
when it's time for a great mexican brew it has to modelo's negra. seriously, anything else is just another variation on a well worn theme..... may be
dos eques XX red too cause it has class. Pacifico is only good for quenching thirst, and that it does well. but, its not what true beer drinking is
all about.

I will buy Pacifios almost all of the time. However, if I come across the large bottles of "Corona Familiar" I go for that. It wasn't on the list.
It's totally different than regualr Corona. Try it next time. (less expensive in the larger bottle too)

No bug.
Just the way it's designed.... by XMB, not Vbulletin.
I'm aware of it, and it's not a critical flaw.
Thanks for noting a problem however.

My Favorite Brew
I drink Bohemia whenever I get a chance, because I like the taste. Tecate is a close second.

Tucker. I would have listed Estrella, Leon , Indio and Chihuahua in the vote but there was a 10 item limit imposed by the poll software feature.
I'll have to try each one of these brands out next time I'm down in the Baja.

At 14.4 billion bottles of beer sold in Canada per year...for a population of 33 million I guess I'm expected to do my part to uphold the Canadian
beer drinkers tradition.
I like Dos Equis XX but it is too inconsistent in the Baja, so I drink the Big Turtle SOL or Pacifico when in the Baja. I like an ice cold Pacifico
Tortuga GRANDE or Ballena Grande wrapped in my favorite blue Pacifico beer huggie while watching the sun set on Los Cerritos beach.

I see Tecate is not that popular...
I rarely drank anything but Pacifico or SOL in the Baja, but found I was forced to drink Tecate at times because that's all they had besides that
panther p*ss Corona.
I toured a Corona bottling plant in Mazatlan in 1990 and I was so grossed out that I have not been able to drink Corona again.

Mike, one time I brought 2 nice bottles of Deloach Cabernet to enjoy with some ribeye that was marinating in my cooler. I didnt figure out that 4hr
drive in 110deg heat will make the corks pop out of the bottles, untill after I parked the truck and looked in the back. My food container was nicely
coated throughout with a sweet smelling cab.
Confused and afraid I wandered aimlessly through the rocks and bushes and ended up at the goyos store in Puertecitos, where I bought several large
brown bottles of brew. I had to drink steadly to reduce shock, my pulse was irregular and I was clearly in danger. Had those beers not been there
it is very possible that a life threatning emergency could have taken place.
On that day pacifico beer saved my life...
I will be forever gratefull.

Canadian Beer
Canada produces pretty good beer. When I lived in upstate New York, I drank my share of Labatts, and I remember driving past the Labatt brewery in
Montreal.

What I like about Pacifico is that it doesn't give as bad of hangovers like some of the other brews. It is kind of like the Silver Bullet of Mexican
beers. Last weekend, I drank a fair amount of beer, but this time it was Budweiser. Boy did I pay a big price the next day for that one. That stuff is
purely toxic.

One nice thing about Modelo in the little bottles, you can open another beer with the key from the bottomof the beer bottle you just finished! 
Debra, I'm the same way. Don't drink hardly any beer stateside, but in Baja, I buy Pacifico by the case! I also have purchased Pacifico by the case
of Ballenas - and I have my depositos of them to prove it.
