Coronas are much more expensive then other beers, and they all taste the same is there a reason why some are more expensive than others?

Try getting different styles besides lagers and light lagers. Go for an IPA, a brown ale, an amber ale, a hefeweizen, a cream ale, an oatmeal stout, a porter, a belgian trippel (try Delerium Tremens at first), an Irish stout, a red ale, a barleywine, a white ale, an oktoberfest, a pumpkin or Christmas ale (depending on what the seasonal is right now. It's kind of an in between time for the two), a maibock or a lambic. You'll start to see the difference in taste. I promise.

No two beers taste the same to me. If they all taste the same to you, I would just buy the cheapest one.

Some are more expensive than others because some are domestic and some are imports. Domestic beers tend to be cheaper. However, there are many "specialty" beers by domestic bottlers that have an increased price as well.

It's kind of like cigars... one cigar can be 29 cents and another is 14 bucks. They might taste the same to you but they come from different countries, are made of different tobacco, are wrapped differently with different materials, and have a different aroma and flavor.

Gasoline should be the same price everywhere too. I'd imagine that it tastes the same.

Congratulations -- of a sort. You are the first person I ever heard of who thought that the skunky taste of Corona was like that of anything else that anyone would have the nerve to sell. I'm guessing that you have confined your tasting to American lagers. Branch out a bit and try bock, brown ale, stout, porter, IPA, Belgians ... And if you think that Corona is expensive, price Chimay (a Belgian beer) or Utopias (the latest from Sam Adams). Note: I said PRICE them. Don't order them for everyone in your group before you do.
In answer to your price question, most of the expensive beers require higher-quality ingredients and more work to prepare. Some of the beer I brew gets aged for months or years before it is worth drinking. Commercially, aging costs money and the beers are priced accordingly. For the most part, they're worth it.

I just now came around to liking beer. I used to thank it all taste the same. But now I can taste the differences. I really like Coors Light and Corona, those are the only two beers I like. Bud Light and Budweiser taste like ****. It is something you acquire.

Coronas are made of the cheapest items the Mexican brewer
can acquire but its marketing is excellent. The clear glass Coronas bottle is not intended to let content remain drinkable
overlong. The concept is to require frequent purchase. Only a dark brown or near-black glass can stop brew from tasting like hog squirt. Even the Bud' brewers figured a quick end to
what passes for taste in their brown bottles was a bad idea.
Writer favors Black Butte Porter which is so far removed in taste from pig squat and ice/light products that it seems no
accident that ignorance of better brews should have a terrible price. Suck it up, sunshine, suck it up.

If you don't drink often, or you don't drink beer much you have don't have the acquired tastes. Its like wine some people can taste all the little different fruits and flower notes in wine and others can't. Some people have the Pallet other just drink to drink. There are also many different styles of beer from dark Guinness to a Belgian white. DON"T TELL ME A GUINNESS TASTE LIKE A BLUE MOON.

Budwiser and Bud Light make me sick as a dog the next day! Don't have that problem w/ Miller or Corona. Someone told me there's a difference in the way they are fermented. (i'm really not much of a beer drinker tho)

I couldn't disagree more-most premium/imported brands taste far better to me. Are you a smoker or have sinus problems? Those things can profoundly affect the sense of taste.
