Had this when I was already drunk so maybe my rating isn't completely accurate. Thought it was alright though

"Natural lime flavor", wink, wink. I've certainly had worse.

At my lady Pamela's house; canned and chilled, 473mL in a pint glass. From the Huron Church Rd. LCBO in nearby Windsor. Lot number D09L571348. My 5th beer from the St. Louis, Missouri brewery, and for 2025. Enthusiastically endorsed by Gracie the cat...

At two dollars a bottle, why not give it a try. Both clear twelve ounce vessels were emptied entirely into a clear glass liter mug. It was a very easy thing to do, as there was virtually no head. At least there's a mildly salty lime aroma. It's look is almost incredibly colorless and translucent. Not to be crude, but it's the ideal color of a healthy person's urine. Surprisingly, it tastes slightly better than expected, largely because there's not much to taste. Were it not for the lime inclusion, it wouldn't have much flavor at all. There is a yeasty aspect to the body, so the mouthfeel is better than a hard seltzer. Hops, what hops? and the malt contribution isn't much better. This is nearly exactly what should be expected, just not the worst. Surely abhorrent to a serious beer drinker; nonetheless, it's understandable how people that don't like beer could like this. No glass lacing was expected, so no surprise there. Two dollars a bottle was worth it only for the try, but not again.

By itself, it tastes very metallic with a slight bitterness to it. I added a wedge of lime, which sorta helped. With the lime, it tasted like the dollar store equivalent to 7-Up or something
Honestly, just get a radler instead

For a summer beer on a hot day when very cold this is actually a pretty good drink. Not fair to review as a beer because it’s more of a refreshing beverage than a beer. If you don’t like lime flavor, take a pass.
