I thought Bo-HEE-me-uh:biggrin: was German when I had my first one a long time ago in Denver.

Es mi favorita absolutamente.

Got my niece addicted to it on her first visit Ensenada visit this week.

Michelada con Bohemia


At Carnitas Los Panchos in Rosarito is the best.

Fresh squeezed limas, sin clamato, por favor, served in an iced beer stein.

Best I have had.

I don't know that I'd call Victoria a "good" beer but it's easy to drink, a little thin on flavor that doesn't compete with chile based foods and sauces. And it's cheap, or at least it used to be

Here's Peter Rowe's (the beer critic for the U/T) assessment of Victoria in the SD U/T from earlier this year when the beer was introduced in San Diego.

Two craft beers under the Rio Bravo label are being produced in Tecate (not by Tecate as far as I can tell).

I'll second GJ and Capt. Mike's thumbs up for Bohemia. I also like Montejo and Leon which are usually found on the east coast of Mexico (Yucatan, Veracruz, Oaxaca)

I think my favorite Mexican beer right now is Cucapá Honey Wheat. Brewed in Mexicali, easily obtainable in San Diego.

Leon is 47 pesos/6 pak at Wal-Mart in Ensenada.

Bohemia is real beer. Victoria sucks. Plus, it has a tendency to get skunky - then it REALLY sucks.
