I love Guiness if I'm sitting down and having one or two drinks. If I'm going out "on a tear" however, it tends to make me feel bloated pretty quickly. THIS however is a good party beer.

Yeah, Guinness just weighs you down even more than other beers.

I've gone off Stella for a while now. There's just something not quite right with the flavour. Also, it gives really bad hangovers (including nasty hangover shits) and makes you beat your wife.

Stella is too dry for me. Like Heinekin, which I loath, but worse.

Yeah, it does give a bad case of dry mouth.

Like I've said before, I just don't trust beers unless they're in brown bottles. Every Heineken I've ever had has been skunky. I've had Stella once or twice, IIRC, but I don't remember it. That probably means I wasn't impressed.

What about Corona then? That's my drink of choice when I have some extra cash. If it wasn't for it being about 50% more expensive than domestic beers, I'd drink it all the time.

Corona's not terribly expensive down here, but no, I don't drink it. The lime wedge is a gimmick, used as an excuse to keep the bottle clear. I prefer my beer to be unflavored. Personal preference more than anything, though if you drink Smirnoff or Mike's Hard, I will make fun of you.

No, I don't drink any kind of "premixed" drinks, no worries there

Although with Corona, I don't do the wedge unless I'm in a bar and it's served that way.
