UPDATED: SEP 29, 2010 I would like too see a little more lime flavour. As you drink it more it goes down very smooth. But overall needs more flavour, even a beer flavour not a lime, But I guess its a typical light beer, with not really any lime flavour

Bottle [12oz] shared with garthicus, jerc & mabel -- c/o tupalev. Pours a clear pale gold with practically no head. Aroma is vegetal and grainy. Watery flavour of grain, pale malt and a hint of lime. Light bodied. Meh, it is what it is.

2010-08-13. Pale neon yellow, small white film of a head. Very muted aroma, muted hint of lime. Flavour is super mild, muted lime. Very muted pale malt. Average to light palate. Inoffensive but quite bland. Bottle shared by Tupalev

From a bottle. Not sure why this one is rated so poorly... not that i’m a big fan of the Lime beers, but this one is by far the most drinkable. Most of the others are way too sweet and taste like coolers... but this one is actually tasty on a hot day if you want a simple light cool beer. I’d even go out on a limb and say if you enjoy the odd Corona with a lime in it, you wouldn’t mind this one at all. So, as a Lime flavored beer - it does alright.

355 ml can in mixed 15-pack from TBS, served cold in a tulip glass.

App.: Clear light golden with a small white rim. Aroma: Light, minerals, slight cereal/grain, a touch of grassy hops, a bit of lime, but in a fairly natural and surprisingly restrained way, that’s about it. Palate: Medium-light body, medium carbonation. Flav.: Cereal/light biscuit malt, a little wet hay and wheat, some decently authentic lime; dry with a touch of bitterness and a very light cereal and touch ’o lime finish.

Not as in-your-face dish soap lime/citrus as other, similar products. Still not much fun, but perhaps the lesser of so many evils.

A - Citrus A - Very light, no head T - Light sour flavour P - Bit fizzy and thin O - Not great

Can BC Liquor Stores Sampler Pack. Pours pale straw yellow with no head. Faint aroma of lime. Light bodied with subtle citrus notes. Went down like water, which is perhaps the point. Perhaps a higher score on a hot dusty day.
