On tap at Margaritaville Orlando. Lets cut to the chase - it’s Budweiser’s version of Corona. A summer thirst quencher and not much else. I’m a died-in-the-wool parrothead, but I’m not overly thrilled with this beer.

Grainy aroma. Pours pale golden with a medium head. It’s tangy, a little sweet with a blend of strawbery, hop, and grain flavors. The finish is cherry and barley. My first impression was of a great lager. The more I drank, however, it began to resemble Budweiser. I suspect this beer may have additives. Even so, I’d drink it again.

Pours yellow and is very similar in flavor to Corona. Quite refreshing with a nice smooth flavor. Not to shabby.

12oz pop top bottle, i had the bottle opener right there but i was trying to twist it of cause i thought for sure it was a twist off. pours golden yellow with decent white head, aroma slighty malty, flavor is better then most macro pale lagers, a ltake the off flavors out and add a hint more taste and thats what this beer is, im not going to down grade it because its made by one of the big macros, its not half bad but dont expect a ton of flavor and not worth the micro brew price.

Pours a light golden yellow. Taste just like a Corona, but less skunky. A slice of lime would obviously pair well with this, but I am unfortunately out.

UPDATED: MAR 31, 2009 Personally one of my favorite beers. Very refreshing, light taste. Thin texture. mildly bitter aftertaste, but leaves me wanting more. This is the kind of beer that I would drink with a meal.

It has a good flavor, but only if you’re looking for a macrobrew. Very similar to others in its category. The flavor does not last long which leads to quantity not quality consumption.

Appearance: light hazy gold, short creamy white head. Aroma: grains, a little lemon, grass and drying hay. Taste: hint of honey nut cheerios, ritz crackers, and lemon zest. Finish: smooth, creamy and crisp, a little lingering sweetness. Notes: Maybe I’m crazy, but I actually liked this. Drinkable, smooth, a little sweet, and (I thought) pretty flavorful for a ’tropical’ lager. Pretty good vacation beer if your choice is limited.
