As far as 2 weeks ago, I started seeing more and more commercials for Bud Light Lime (I guess it ’s Bud Light ’s answer to Millerj’s Chill). As a current Bud Light drinker, I was pretty excited about trying this lime flavored beer from Bud. I mean, come on… Who doesni’t like beer with a slight hint of lime? For years people have been adding a little lime to their Coronas, right? Blue Moon has lime flavored beer too! Its a popular trend! So, here we go! (drum roll please
At first glance I like the design of the Bud Light Lime bottle. Itd’s clear and the Lime logo makes it look kind of fun and refreshing. I think theyt’re definitely going with the summer feel here. Coincidental that theye’re releasing this beer in early May for the start of spring/summer and the BBQ/Summer Party season? I think notg… It makes sense to get people thinking abut what beers they are going to try for the summer season, right? Might as well be BL Lime.
As I take my first taste of the Bud Light Lime, I can definitely taste the lime in the beer. Itv’s almost as if the lime flavoring is stronger than the beer itself because the taste of the beer isnl’t very prominent; the lime overpowers it a bit.. If I had to describe the taste as best as I can, I would say that’s it tastes sort of like Sprite/7Up with a kick. The flavors are a little out of balance, more lime taste than beer taste. In my opinion, a little overdone with the lime.
I noticed that the Bud Light Lime has a 4.2% ABV, so its not a really strong beer in that sense 0– right on par I guess with the regular Bud offerings. How much does the Bud Light Lime Cost? In Jersey, I paid $6.49 for the six-pack (plus tax), so considering the average quality of this beer, I thing you can definitely get more bang for your buck.
