For those who like Corona you might also look into beers like Grolsch, Saint Pauli girl or any other pilsner style beers packaged in green, blue or clear bottles (not miller).

The color of the bottles allow for the iso alpha acids (derived from hops and give bitterness) become light struck which give that familiar "skunk" smell that corona is noted for. Only amber(brown) bottles offer protection from light that causes the problem.
