I always thought this was one of the better Chelada style beers, with Modelo being the exception. I wish they had not discontinued it because I would by it frequently for it's lime and salt flavor, which was great on hot days. Plus, it seemed to have a slight tequila flavor to it, which may have thrown a few people off. The look was just fine, smell, I thought had that hint of lime and tequila aroma. Same with the taste, different from other lime beers, and I preferred that, and the feel was just fine, it went down great, maybe too good. I can tell you, chase a shot of tequila with this beer, and you are good to go!..

As of the 14th of February 2019, this beer is still available in Australia. Brewed under license by Coca-Cola.
It must be selling since it's been around for a while.
My brother gave me a case for my birthday. Thanks Keith.
I poured it in a glass, went out the back for a smoke and had a swig. I then upturned the glass and fed the pot plant.
I hope it doesn't die.
Nasty stuff. Not sure how it can even be called beer.

An oldie but a goodie. I wish they still made this so I could have another. I remember it being yummy, far as I was concerned. Like a pleasantly mild Mike’s Hard Lemonade. Quite worthy. ca. 2008

Awful crap. Looks like a delicious drop, terrible mess of flavour, hardly any lime, and a watery lagery mess behind that. Great for hot days. Sour mouth feel, and quite refreshing ice cold. Love what it could be, not what it is.

12 oz bottle. Smells of corn, lime, and dirty socks. Surprisingly, it retains a thin head for most of the beer. Tastes like an extremely light lager; definite lime and salt flavor. It’s like a Corona and lime without the skunk flavor. I had one of these on a hot day one time after mowing the lawn and I thought it was delicious. In other words, if you’re extremely hot, dehydrated, and thirsty, this beer goes down very well. Any other time, stay far away from it.

There is some weird psychosomatic thing I have where I dig the euro lagers that are in a green bottle, but when America does it, somehow it falls flat. When poured, this stuff looks pretty shitty, malternative beverage appearance, doesn't hold a head like it should. Aroma of corn syrup and sugar.
More sweetness in the taste. Is this marketed at 13 year old girls? Miller & Chill? Some lime like notes. Highly carbonated. I think this is pretty disgusting.

Annual neighborhood block party in full swing. Let's see some of the lovely swills I can find in the coolers.
Look - Straight from the bottle.
Smell - Artificial lime for days and nothing more.
Taste - Bit of tart grain and some more artificial lime.
Feel - Bubbly and watery.
Overall - Generic Summer brew for the masses.

Pours a clear, pale golden color with a thin white head. Aroma is lime and grain. Sweet flavour of lime, corn and some faint hops in the finish. Light body very watery and soft carbonation.

Miller Chill - Miller Brewing Co.. Poured from the bottle into a glass, this beer's head is one finger thick and soapy white, no lacing, and a clear golden body.
Smells like a nice bit of lime, nice.
The taste here is that if your normal light lager, but, yeah, that's right, with a hint of lime. If this were made in a wheat style, this would really hit the spot. But that's just wishful thinking.
This brew's mouthfeel is light and crisp.
Overall, I will give Miller Chill - Miller Brewing Co. a 3.25. It was better than I had anticipated.

Format: a 330mL clear bottle with an okay macro label. After re-trying the pretty awful Miller Genuine Draft, I am petrified to see what happens when they try to mix in other flavours. I'm expecting it to be like CUB's abhorent Carlton Dry Fusion.
Appearance: pours out an extremely light yellow colour with an absolute explosion of carbonation continuing for ages. A good-looking white head pops up to two fingers before settling to a very creamy finger. Thick and sudsy lacing down the glass. As with the Draft, it looks decent, though I am a bit concerned about the explosive carbonation.
Aroma: the only aroma that is evident is an artificial lime flavour that actually smells like sherbert. Not exactly terrible, just a bit different.
Taste: I have read a lot about this beer not tasting that much like beer, but so what? Lambics don't really taste like beer, but are still very popular. If you are after a light spritzer this isn't too bad, though I will admit this still isn't my favourite beer. Again that sweet sherbert lime flavour. I do think it could get a bit sickly after a while.
Aftertaste: the sweetness from the lime is met by a bit of sourness on the finish.
Mouth feel: light to moderate in body with that big spritzing carbonation. Makes sense to me now as to why they wanted to up the carbonation so much.
Overall: less of a beer really so much as a low alcohol spritzer. Certainly not my type of beer nor my favourite, but I think this would be decent for those that would normally drink a shandy or a sweet ready-to-drink.
