It's funny, I tried the Negra for the first time last week too after watching their review and could not agree more about how it's superior to the Especial. I have to go a little bit more out of the way here to get it, but very worth it.

The Negra is so much better but I understand why some people like like the lighter beer. I love darker beers, more flavor.
@BeerBrackets Жыл бұрын
We tend to love dark beers too, so I'm sure that played a big part in the decisions we made while doing this vs battle.

Just getting caught up on your last few videos, moving the Modelo series here. Super fun vs battle! I think you're right that a lot of people don't know how good the Modelo Negra is. Which is such a shame. I find it's even better in a can, but that's me.

I would have to go with the Negra too if comparing side by side, but it's not that easy to find here in Canada like Joe said. Wish they had better distribution here, would be a huge seller.

I like both but for me it all depends on the weather if its hot like summer ill do the Especial very cold and for nice cold weather like auttum here in North Mexico ill do the Negra,but i like both when ever if there is no other.

I'm a mexican in Mexico City. We are really used to drink both, but I usually avoid Negra because it's more likely to get really drunk 🤣🤣 Victoria and Modelo Especial are waaaay more usual than Negra and even Corona. Somebody already told you about Indio, but I usually won't drink Cuauhtémoc-Moctezuma beers, really don't like it.

Haha yeah that extra percent of alcohol will definitely sneak up on you! What are some of your favorites? I’ve spent a lot of time in Mexico and really enjoy the beer culture there. What do you think of Bohemia?

10/12/2024. Joe and [A] this is fun, but beer should be done with food. My suggestion is do this with a plain pizza. Omit all meat just the crust tomato sauce and a mild cheese. I love this beer with Pizza.

Such a great suggestion! We did an episode pairing beer with pizza and had a ton of fun doing it. It’s on our long list of things we’d love to explore if we had more time.

Comparing Modelo Especial to NEGRA MODELO, is comparing apples to oranges. It's dumb. If you're going to compare Negra Modelo to anything it should be to it's oldest and main competitor in Mexico (available in the US also), Indio, from Cuauhtemoc Moctezuma. Both of them are excellent beers.
