When I got home, I posted that I got two free cans of Bud Light Lime Mojito as my status on Facebook. Immediately my friend and beer sister, Darlene, came up with the comment "Ewwwwww!" I said, "You know I will be blogging about it" and she said "Be sure to quote me: Ewwwwwwwww!"
OK, I lied but hey, he was giving me something for free.
So how is it, you ask?
I made sure it had a good chill like the fellow told me. Even waited 'til I drove to Hamilton and back and was thirsty. This beer was being given its best chance.
It pours a light golden colour with a white head, which dissipates quickly leaving behind no lacings on the glass. There is lots of lime in the aroma.
There was something weird in the aftertaste. Perhaps that was the mint?
If I was blindfolded and given this to taste, I would guess that this was a new ginger ale and lime pop. Even then, I might complain that this has too much lime in it and I'm a person who likes lime.
Perhaps it could be called a shanty. Perhaps it could be called a cooler.
It is refreshing, I will give it that, but whatever it is, it surely is not beer!
Note: I walked by a stand giving these away again a couple of days later. I didn't stop, just kept walking!

I AGREE, 100% with you! Swordsman
Also, to me this is the worst tasting so called beer i have ever tasted in my 50 years on this planet. Simly Deplorable! The after taste makes you want to go and brush your teeth immediately!
Whomever decided to brew this was certainly NOT a Brew Master! Im insulted that Labatts would even put it on the shelf, next to real beer. As far as worth a premium price. Well, Im LMFAO and feeling sick at the same time!
I tried it and thought it tasted like some kind of bathroom cleaner/Lysol. (not that I have ever consumed bathroom cleaner/Lysol... but it is how I imagine it tasting based on the smell) In any case, i found it vile. Very, very weak "beer" taste, with an overwhelming fake lime jello taste. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW is the perfect way to describe it.
It's not Guinness, but it is refreshing. Lighten up. Those who like it, like it a lot. ;-)
