Id like to compare the 2 Nations in terms of Culture Women Food Beer Beaches Sport etc....

Ill start with Beer

Eventhough Mexico isnt known as a big beer drinking Nation, more tequila.
The Beers from Mexico are very good im not talking about Coronas but Negro Modelo Tecate XX Pacifico.
Do you Aussies get these Mexican beers down under?

Ive had Fosters XXXX and Coopers not bad but from what ive had id give the edge to Mexico on beers

Response?

Fosters? no one drinks fosters here. Its our big joke to the beer drinking world.

Aussie beers? I like the beers from Tasmania, Little Creatures is good too.

No offence but Corona tastes like detergent to me. Reminds me of VB or something, no taste. I like tequilla, though, and I'm sure you have better beers than Corona.

Australians are not as big beer drinkers as it used to be over 10 years ago. These days wines and Spirits have become more popular.

Not so fast. There are a lot of different good beers here, produced by large breweries as well as many smaller boutique/micro breweries. I believe one of our Little Creatures brews won best brew in the world not long ago.

In Oz I've only seen Corona and Sol. Corona is very popular here, complete with the lime wedge. I call it excellent marketing. They have a great ad campaign.

We'd kick your butt when it comes to wine though

If you were to compare traditional, typical foods, I'd definitely give the crown to Mexican food. And not just tacos and burritos. Oz has some great seafood though, as well as lots of great fresh produce. We're a young country and the cuisine is still developing and improving.

Mexico is not a big wine country because of the Tequila being so prominent.

I think Mexican food was just put on the world culturual list as being the best food in the world.

If ever your Aussies are in the states let me know ill show you some good Mexican food.

I havnt had a meat Pie I want to try it

Mexican food, yes beats Aussie "cuisine" however I do like the variety on hand in Australia.

In terms of beer, yes the smaller boutique breweries are the go

Meat pies, at the footy
