it 's is a great summer time beer. Depending on your tastes you may vary the about of flaked corn to adjust the sweetness,. the last time that i did one up I think that the corn came through a little too much. It is way different then what you will find in the stores (corona), but much better. Has a maltyness through out it with vary little hop character, with a crisp clean finish. I have only done this one twice so i don't really have the recipe nailed down yet.

Thanks for bumping this, reminds me i need to get one going for the summer.

Two summers gone...bump bump.

You got a Corona clone?
...
Never mind, watched the UFC tonight. I had my triple hopped Hobgoblin mistake (2 pints) and then drank two Coronas at neighbors house... I do not wish to drink Corona any more! My triple hopped mistake was so much better.
