1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 3/20
Bottle.
A - Light golden straw color. Decent sized foamy white head that disappears fast with little to no lacing.
S - Lots of lime smell and some sweet corn lager smell.
T - Not good. The Macro lager is the base, but there is also the artificial lime taste. This artificial lime unfortunately makes the lager worse not better. Weird artificial sweet, sticky flavor that I do not like. Also a bit of salt.
M - Light body with a lot of carbonation. Kind of sticky.
D - Not good, too much of the weird artificial lime taste.
Notes: Not a fan of the lime flavor. Too sweet and off tasting. Others may like it and think it slightly improves the Macro lager, but I think it makes it worse.
0.5 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 1/20
Tastes like someone poured artificial lime juice into a month old bottle of MGD.
2.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Very pale, quick-fading white head. Aroma of sharp, oxidized cardboard malts. In the flavor, the oxidation is still there, but the citric lime flavoring covers it up and complements it to the point of it not being offensive. Thin body, but zest on the palate. I could drink this if someone else was paying.
1.1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20
Thanks (thanks is such a fleeting word) to GregClow for this.... Appearance: Almost clear yellow with a grey head. Aroma: Like a homeless persons cardboard box blended with some ginger and lime, then pissed on by someone who ate 40 spoons of corn. Flavour: Made my head shake like a cheap bobblehead doll. Corn, chemical lime, sandpaper finish with a dash of shame.
1.5 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Bottle [12oz] shared with the gang at ’WaterlooWeekend Oct.’09’ -- c/o GregClow. Pours a very pale gold with a small diminishing white head. Aroma: Ugh, diapers with lime added. Flavour’s a bit better, it’s basically a watery Shandy, dull and not for me at all. Light bodied. A waste of a bottle.
1.3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20
[2539-20091024] Clear bottle. Sweet candy laces and fruity lime aroma, like fizz pops. Clear, light yellow body with a quick bubbly white head. More candy laces or sweethearts in the flavour and fake fruit. Light body. Not absolutely horrid but very close; overly sweet and fruity.

1 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 1/20
"One remembers horrors, I think, for the rest of one’s life, but memories do not always remain so sharp, and with time, and new circumstance, do not affect us so powerfully."
2009-10-29. The powerful aroma invades my nose with force, a strong character of urine, uric acid, and an unhealthy dose of urinal cakes. The mild kiss of unholy lime essence is almost unsportsmanlike in its timing. Flavour is almost a 180 degree turn. A palatable lemon-lime soda like profile, dry touch of astringency in the finish. Average to thin bodied palate with a pale yellow body. While not quite an abomination but you may still want to consider roshambo-ing anyone who gives you some, just for good measure.

1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
(bottle ( 12oz ). shared by gregclow at October 2009 WaterlooWeekend. Pale flat-looking yellow, wispy white head. Smells like cheap lime candies and flyspray - only because it’s not vegetal or diaper-like (we disagree here, Paul). Taste- papery, stale weeds and sweet cheap fake lime flavour. Watery, slightly acidic, harsh, weakly carbonated - nothing like a beer, just a cheap stale lime cooler.
