theisti (1640), Leawood, Kansas, USA Sep 17, 2007 12 oz bottle, at a friend’s daughters birthday party. Being that I was never planning on buying this beer, I was pleased to be able to try it under the circumstances. Pour is straight pale lager, with perhaps less head. Aroma typical macro grain, really not much of the extras (lime and salt). Taste was actually much smoother than Miller Lite. I thought the lime and salt were very muted, and actually quite nicely blended. Not a bad drink by any means, and perhaps something I would prefer over normal Miller line up. Did I have a second? Nope, they had Sierra Nevada too. BustedFlat (552), Edina, Minnesota, USA Sep 16, 2007 12 ounce bottle. Shaker glass. Pale golden with a thin head. Aroma - grain and a hint of lime. As advertised the flavor was dominated by lime and salt in a pale lager. Maybe slightly better than High Life or MGD, but still lags behind Corona with a healthy dose of lime added.
bubbleflubber (885), Collinsville, Virginia, USA Sep 16, 2007 Pours pale transparent yellow into the glass, with a nitrous-induced head that diminishes to nil, leftover spotty suds lace. A tiny bit of lime, but pretty much no real nose available. The flavor is certainly lime-tainted, almost soda-like. Very reminiscent of Tequiza, honestly. No real body or substance. If you’re in the mood for a better alternative to traditional macros, you might give this a try. No real flavor present. All produced, nothing natural. Light and seltzery, but I hate to admit that it doesn’t really go down as awfully as I expected. theviolet (168), New York, New York, USA Sep 16, 2007 12 oz. bottle into a pint glass. Very light aroma with corn, malt, and a touch of citrus. Not really distinguishable as lime, just some sort of citrusy fruit. Piss yellow and fizzy, head is fizzy white and is gone almost immediately. Ugly. Flavor is immediately crisp and acccompanied by a light citrus that goes away but reappears in the aftertaste. I notice the fruit more, but I really dont like it. Slight hop character, but not really. Milldy refreshing, but the lim kills it. Not a bad mouthfeel, crisp. badnloose (99), North Hollywood, California, USA Sep 16, 2007 Updated: Oct 18, 2007Premixing lime into a beer is not a good idea. What works for soda clearly does not work here. Lame, but made me appreciate Corona w/ fresh lime just a bit more. FROTHINGSLOSH (1965), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 15, 2007 Sampled from a 12 oz green bottle this beer poured a pale golden color with a small white head that fades almost instantly. The aroma was sweet, tangy margarita. The flavor was dryish, salty and citrusy with a hint of pepper. There was no real beer flavor here. This tastes just like the watery dregs of a margarita that has been sitting nearly finished for a while and then I suck up through the straw before leaving the restaurant. Yeah, just like that. jrmac (210), USA Sep 15, 2007 A good beer for drinking in the hot sun of columbia sc. I had ice cold and found it to be very refreshing. You can definately taste the salt and lime. Different but good! grandet (477), Scranton, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 15, 2007 Ehhh, not too bad, but not great. Very sweet and artificial tasting. Another good one for the girlfriend
