 Workers
at the Corona brewery in Mexico urinate in the beer vats. |
  False.
This persistent rumor
started in the mid-1980s and spread like wildfire, costing Corona
millions of dollars in lost revenue. The brewery was finally able
to trace the slur to Luce and Sons, a competing Heineken distributor.
A lawsuit coerced Luce into publically admitting that urine was not
in fact an ingredient of Corona. Corona has since spent over a half
a million dollars trying to squelch the rumor, without much success. |
