Red Baron Lime is an easy-drinking, refreshing, light beer with just a splash of 100% all-natural lime flavour. The result is a clean, crisp finish with no aftertaste.

Red Baron Lime's 100% all-natural lime flavour is very refreshing and a perfect match with BBQ'd meats just off the grill on a hot sunny Saturday afternoon, but we prefer to let the people make their own decision on this one!

Bottle from a 6 pack purchased at TBS- Pale yellow pour with a frothy white cap. Nose is grainy, has lime but unlike bud light lime this seems a bit more natural. Sweet grainy flavour also has a nice hint of lime. Again, a bit more natural tasting that bud light lime. Not bad for what it is. Heavily carbonated and somewhat astringent lime finish. I'll finish the 6 easily.

An all around very refreshing light beer. Enjoy on a hot summer day and right now buy a 12 pk for $17.95 at the beer store.
Support what the Brick Brewing Company has done by making an agreement to sell to ontario bars and restaurants at half the rate the beer store sells to them at.

341 mL bottle from a six-pack; tasted last night around a campfire. I usually prefer to write reviews with the beer in a glass next to me, but honestly I'd be surprised if I ever try this stuff again so I might as well tick it now while it's still fresh in my head.

The brew itself is a pale straw yellow colour, fizzy and effervescent like any self-respecting light lager. Bland aroma with some sourness from the artificial lime extract and grainy, corny malt sweetness underneath. The taste deviates little from this theme - the only real flavours are diluted, grainy cereal adjunct sweetness and artificial lime. Fairly clean finish with a vaguely tart aftertaste. Light-bodied and watery, with relatively strong carbonation like I expect from a light lager. You can taste the cheapness, but there's nothing so off-putting about it that I'd object to another bottle on a hot patio.

Final Grade: 2.78, a forgettable C grade. I'd need to do a taste test to decide whether I liked this more than Bud Light Lime, but frankly I can probably find more interesting, if not more productive uses of my time. They're both watery, bland beers with a dash of some sort of lime flavouring thrown in, though this one's dash may be slightly smaller (and thus less cloying). I guess if I had the choice between this and a regular light beer, I'd probably pick this - at least it tastes like something - and when taking price into account, Red Baron Lime is probably a more practical choice than Bud Light or BLL anyway.

Straw yellow apperance with a small amount of head that disappears quickly, no lacing. Smell is almost entirely lime, maybe some grain.

Taste is mainly lime, some grain and sweetness. Very light overall, almost identical to bud light lime but doesn't taste as artificial. Watery taste with low carbonation. Aftertaste is lime.

Overall, slightly better then the rest of the lIme beers, many because the lime is very light. Worth. Try if your into lime beers, otherwise, pass.

s-loads of lime...not much else.

t-Very limey-standard watery lite beer flavours.

m-thin...it is a light beer though.

d-Actually fairly drinkable, no controversial tastes. Excellent lawnmower beer.
