The Mexican beer...Thanks for the comment Bierfesten<br />The Mexican beer scene is a direct result of the money people controlling things instead of the artisans. We had a very similar, if not even worse, situation here in Canada up until the early 1980s and look at the scene now. No, we haven't caught up to California or Portland, but the scene here is thriving and growing in leaps and bounds. And this is all a result of people making beer for the sake of making quality, craft beer and not for the sake of pure profit. It started slow, but now, the craft beer sales are taking a small chunk of the market and are growing. In 20 years, we may rival Portland, San Diego, etc. And if someone can get the ball rolling in Mexico, even if it is just in one city, maybe in 20 years, they can be where we are now?!Paddy Treavorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16360223916204727525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-826637739916486721.post-70125795257664330192011-01-13T09:53:02.217-08:002011-01-13T09:53:02.217-08:00Thanks Bierfesten.

I think its victim to few companies involved in the industry due to the duopoly forces. <br />I dare say the 'hangover' was one of those well deserved ones with that crowd of hooligans you hang out with!! like my one in Scotland back in August when i got too excited over the scotch. I dare say you will get your tolerance back!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
