[Bottle, thanks Brewfiend] Aroma was predominately lime, but as olso, brewfiend, and Skyview noted does have a soap/cleaner smell to it. Taste was lime with slight grain finish.

[Bottle, thanks Brewfiend] Aroma was lime...but reminded me of soap or floor cleaner. Taste was a little sour with a little citrusy aftertaste. It was somewhat smooth and had a short finish. Not very good, but not completely objectionable either.

lime peel nose with plenty of grain. Light gold body. Tastes of lime disenfecant. Rough chemical finish.

ooooh kay... This is an odd duck of beers. Picked up 12-oz bottle from Blue Max in Burnsville, MN. Pours a light pilsner golden yellow brew with a fizzy white head that dissolves slowly with a good lacing. Aroma reminds me of Rose’s Lime Juice and a vodka gimmlet. Other scents are some Mr. Clean floor cleaner citrus, and a lime. Taste is very carbonated and dry. Hard to pick up the wheat and any hops. One of the few beers that I feel on the roof of my mouth. Finish is flat and watery. At least I can say I tried this at least once.

Pours golden with almost no head. Smells of lime, tastes of lime. Points for originality.

Transparent and pale copper in color with a fish tank air bubble fizz rising to the top and fueling an icy, off-white cove for the head. Aged lime tootsie rolls get tucked inside cream cheese danishes and then get microwaved. Such a strange aromatic precursor. Vanilla oats continue a smooth aroma sequence while a lemon lime banana meringue trait hints toward some freak show pudding under the Goya label in the Mexican food aisle. First sip yields a “fuck, that’s light” from the tastebuds. Imagine sinking a lime in cream soda-esque seltzer water. That’s what we’re looking at. Inoffensive, however much it conjures up thoughts of lime Lip Smackers lip balm being applied to the tongue rather than the lips as prescribed, thus imparting a subtleness that’s not really intended for gestation. Sourdough comes in with some guava greenery to impart a touch more tropical fruitiness. Ginger root slides with lemony New York seltzer water for feel and flavor. Sweetened corn flakes gain a few green Froot Loops, casually drifting over to form a unison corny lime substance take-away.

Pours to a darker gold color with a lasting white head. Nice slow carbonation. The aroma is lime ginger ale like Dave mentions. Grassy key lime pie on the flavor. Graham pie crust. More drinkable than I’d expect. Much better than Miller Lite. Interesting concept for a beer. This is a drinkable 2.5, not a drain-pour.
