Can you imagine drinking liter jugs of Pacifico? Wow. Could be a fun event.

Yep Bob!
Down here they are referred to as "Ballenas", quite common to see two or three guys sucking on one!

Tucker, I buy ballenas by the case when I go down south. It's the best deal in any town. Think about a "pail of whales" on ice! I call every large
bottle of cervesa a ballena, no matter what brand it is!

Don't know what they call
big bottles of Dos Equis but the Tecate's are generally referred to as Caguamas and the Pacificos, Ballenas.
And here in Rosarito, I guess they have more money because most of these guys that are beer drinkers go through a Caguama or Ballena in about an
hour. Each ! All day long!
