Yep, it’s that time again: the time when another obscure holiday from some other country has been turned into a big, slobbery drunk-and-disorderly fest for American young adults, thanks to the marketing dollars of a large brewing conglomerate.

In honor of this grand occasion, Beer School will be featuring the Beers of Mexico, mostly because that’s what Monty’s Korner will have on tap. In addition to pisswater Corona, we’ll also be tasting other Mexican pisswater export lagers, as well as some of the beers for which the Mexican brewing industry should be known: Vienna-Style lagers and darker, complex brews that don’t require a friggin’ lime to be rendered barely palatable.

Did that whet your thirst buds? Good. We’ll see you tonight at 7:30, Monty’s Korner, Rochester, NY. Bring your own stupid hat.
