Hot day beer. Put a lime wedge and some salt in it (and some tequila wouldn’t hurt). it’s not bad, but it is not great. Cools you off, and it is better than Bud.

Served in the bottle with a lime. Pale yellow in color. The taste and smell of the beer is almost entirely masked by the lime wedge.

Bottle. Bright straw yellow with white head. Aroma is almost non-present, slight citrus and grass. Taste is the same. Has to be served with the lime boat, to give it...well, something.

Bottle: The aroma is nothing "especial"... In fact, I like to get a lime in it quickly to offset the fragrance. Appearance: Bright yellow, not a color I "intake" often... Overall it’s average at best. Not a bad choice at a summer party when the other choice is Coors Light...

12oz bottle in St. Maarten. I’m pretty sure there’s a giant brewery somewhere in the Caribbean which pumps out one beer into a dozen or so different bottles, and they’re all the official beer of <insert island name>.

I think the lime on the Corona is the only thing that gets this up to a rating of "1" for me - that’s a gift, given the most redeeming part of the experience is the piece of fruit attached and not the beer itself. Mexican Budweiser at best.
