Magjayran (1111), Durham, North Carolina, USA Jun 16, 2008 Grainy cardboard with overly sweet lime flavor. Two sips and down the drain it went.
bubbleflubber (648), Collinsville, Virginia, USA Aug 24, 2008 Pours hay into the glass, with a soda head that goes away immediately. The nose is like a lime spritzer, nothing more. This tastes, honestly, like a Zima-light, or sour "malt-beverage" (i.e. Smirnoff, wine cooler), only without any substance to the body. The is sour from beginning to end, with a possible grain aspect (but I’m REALLY reaching to find it). Weirdly, I also pick up some ginger (ale) toward the finish. Nothing but the same continues through conclusion of the pull, just adding a processed (plastic?) note at the end. Seltzery carbonation levels lend a thin soda mouthfeel. Interesting to try, but certainly not anywhere close to a top-tier fruit beer. (Why they even include "Cactus" is beyond me...) Again, more of a malt beverage than a brew..... and thinner than most in that beverage class. (Personally, I guess I should give them some credit for trying, but A-B should really, really take a look at "real" offerings before implementing their ruining "touch"......) phishpond417 (1409), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA Aug 21, 2008 I’m going to assume Michelob had good intentions when making this thing, unfortunately you wouldn’t catch me sipping on this again. Poured a translucent golden colour, strong lime notes and maybe a little nopal? Citrusy, sour and zesty all the way through. arventresca (156), Greenville, North Carolina, USA Aug 17, 2008 Taste like lime jello. No other way to describe it. Drinkable, but not really beer I’d say. chrissy (81), Connecticut, USA Aug 16, 2008 A very light beer with a overpowering lime flavor. Too light for me. It asctullat taste like beer and lime, but not as good as Bud light lime or miller chill. beerguy12 (24), Dillsburg, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 13, 2008 Of all the macro lemon/lime beers on the market, this would be my favorite. Golden with a white head. Lime taste is genuine. Beer has good grain flavor. Good for hot weather
