This light pilsner (only 3.9%!) is infused with real lime puree, giving it a very nice crisp and bright profile. With a clean malt base and light hop character, this beer is sure to be supremely sessionable.

Poured from 12oz can into my Bell’s tulip. Canned 7/1/24.
Appearance: very pale golden-straw hue wit a dash of haze that lends a shimmery quality to the body. Head is a finger of frothy eggshell foam.
Smell: lightly crisp underlying pilsner aroma with a dash of natural-smelling lime. It is thankfully quite reserved; as long as you know you’re going into a lime beer, here, then it’s actually quite nice.
Taste: the lime is a bit stronger in the flavor than in the aroma; personally I could do with a bit more restraint here too. It basically tastes like a decent light lager in a longneck with a lime shoved in it. Not bad for what it is, but it lacks refinement.
Mouthfeel: light body with a good carbonation and a pretty decent creaminess.
Overall: this is certainly an extremely refreshing beer. However, just a hint more restraint on the lime would really work for me.
