Since we are all talking about cervezas, I just wanted to let you know that I bought an 8 pack of what I thought was Sol, and it turned out to be their edicion verano and it was gross. |

Any beer in a can is bound to be gross.  |

My friend at SOL tells me Verano Sol is the same beer - jiust markeing with a different can. Maybe the OP got a bad batch.
The do have a new flavor with "limon y sal" but I haven't tried it yet. |

bad batch?
more likely prejudice
or maybe it lacked that skunky flavor which is a result of exposure to sunlight, very common is glass bottled beers. Because it was in the can, it was protected from the rays, man.

try your own experiment, go leave a bottle in the sun for 15 min. Bring it back in, chill it, and compare to one that's been twards the back of the shelves in the super, protected from the light.  |
