Sol Searching

Sol Cerveza

Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma (Heiniken)

4.5% Alcohol

A Mining4Beer event, you had me at free beer.** The only beer at the bar I hadn’t tried was a Sol. Sol here goes.

The COMDB translation department were hard at work on this one, doing some Sol searching. The ever belligerent but occasionally efficient translation team made quick work of this one word moniker. “Sun” they said and they were done for the day. Good work if you can get it.

A Mexican classic since 1899, Sol is now part of the Heineken family, another big company Dutch Mexican brew.*

This review will be very easy. If you’ve tried a Corona you’ve tried a Sol. La meme chose. Skinny bottle, lime, only 330ml, light refreshing summer suds. The only difference is you don’t have Snoop Dogg drinking with you,*** which isn’t necessarily a bad thing since he turns up everywhere these days. After all, every country should have their own dope smoking icon to represent them at the Olympics.

*Editor's Comment: Sol has been brewing since 1899. In 2010 Heineken bought Tecate, Dos Equis and Sol for $7.6 Billion. That's a whole lot of Sol.

**Editor's Comment: To be clear, Mining4Beer events are BYOB, our reviewer had obtained a few free tickets, most likely through nefarious means.

*** Editor's Comment: Snoop Dogg is an official celebrity spokeperson for Corona, and was front and center supporting the US teams at the last summer Olympics in Paris. It has been reported that Snoop made $500,000 a day from NBC for his Olympic coverage role. It's all contributing to his quickly growing net worth of $160M USD.

Final Rating: Another Classic Mexican Dutch Beer at 15 out of 20
