  9. I am not a beer drinker-This does not taste like BL Lime--It's more like a margarita with a twist.. It's light and refreshing-- not too sweet!! It will definitely be my new summer drink!! Can't wait until they put it on the market

  10. These are really good! I am not a beer drinker and love it. My husband is a beer guy and liked them also. They are just hard to find right now...

  11. Enjoying one as I post. This stuff is incredible, a real winner! Will hit shelves April 23rd!

  12. They taste pretty close to an actual margarita. They also come with the hefty calories of an actual margarita at 330 calories per 12oz. oh and despite what that label says they released them with 8% abv not 6%. but all and all its not too bad.

  13. I saw these at the store last night, had to try it. Didn't know anything about it (never heard of or seen it) but I must say, it's pretty darn tasty over crushed ice.

    The 12 pack I purchased contained 8 oz. cans, though when combined with crushed ice, will fill an entire 12 oz glass nicely.

    It has a smooth margarita flavor with a slight malt beverage finish on the back end, but only with the first few initial sips. It won't replace a true quality margarita. However if one is looking for a quick "margarita" fix or if mixing one is not possible, this should hit the spot. Also at 8% alc/vol, the "force" is strong with this one.

    For reference, my "beer" palate ranges from big name Lagers and Pilsners, to Hefeweizen's, wheat beers, and occasional cider beers.

  14. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! Best idea ever! I love Bud Light Limes and this just took it to a whole new level! Can't get enough!

  15. I had this in a bar in Madison Wi...but I live in Tucson Az...does anyone know where I can find it? I love it!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Had this yesterday and it tastes really good, it's now my favorite margarita. I like the bud light lime, and i was really thinking this was going to be just a novelty, but it's very good.

  17. The product tastes good initially, but just wait a few minutes and a strong chemical/synthetic after taste will emerge that is quite unpleasant to say the least. One has to wonder what kind of crap these companies are feeding us! I mean, where is the FDA on this one, or anything else these days? Wake up, people,they don't care about us, all they care about is our money and they'll do anything to get it at all costs, your health included!!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Do you really want the FDA involved with Beer & malted beverages?

    ReplyDelete
  19. I looked on the can and cannot find where it tells you how many calories are in a can. I loved it-but want to know calorie count!!!

    ReplyDelete
  20. It lists 247 calories per 12oz

    ReplyDelete
  21. Love it!!!!!!!:)

    ReplyDelete
  22. tastes like the margarita i had at chilis, but cheaper

    ReplyDelete
  23. GREAT! I'm not a beer drinker ..... but I guess this will qualify me as one! I'm hooked!

    ReplyDelete
  24. the calories in an 8 oz can would be...about 165 calories - not too light but the taste is ohhh so good!!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Had one for the first time last night. All they have around here is the 24 oz. can. Holy Calories, but still loved it. Think we are still a test market here since that's all the had. Just the single LARGE cans. My new once and a while summer drink!!

    ReplyDelete
  26. If anyone has made the Pampered Chef Margaritas with beer it them they will love this... Same bubble but not as sweet! Awesome drink!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I tried one today, it does taste similar to the real thing. But my question is how do they get away using the Bud "light" name when it really isn't a light drink. I've seen different numbers from 247 to 330 for the 12 oz. I guess maybe the difference is the alcohol content. I live in VA and what I bought has 8%. From what I understand depending on where you live, some areas have 6% and some have 8%. Also, it's technically not beer, it's malt liquor.

  28. Mu husband brought some home today and I can say I love it!!! It seems a little heaver than anctual margarita but it is soooooo nice! OUR NEW drink when can't get an actual margarita. Dont care about calories thats what the gym is for :-)

    ReplyDelete
  29. These are my new beach drink. Little "cans of happiness" as they have been named in my house

    ReplyDelete
  30. Have to say incredible taste not beer like though more of a margarita taste that I'n my mind set, being a dedicated bud lime drinker: def a nice change and it's stronger as I'n alcohol content which relaxes the heck out of me on one instead of two beers...

    ReplyDelete
  31. My new drink for our Marina!! YUMMY

    ReplyDelete
  32. absolutely devine on a hot summer day! just had my first few down in myrtle beach, SC this past week! had to pick up a case to bring home. hope they start selling it here in CT soon!!!

  33. Has anyone else swelled up like crazy the day after drinking these?

    ReplyDelete
  34. Love it! I dont like beer but these are great:)

    ReplyDelete
  35. Never heard of it until yesterday. Sales person said thay can't keep up with the request. Have to say "I love my beer" But I really loved this Lima Rita. I don't care for the calories count. If the calories were less it would be my drink from now on. I have to say that I had two 8oz cans about an hour ago and my feet are swollen already. Don't like the side effect. I love it but I don't like it.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Awesome!! And I don't like beer at all!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Not a beer drinker --- but DEFINITELY will be a making a few trips to the store to replenish my stock of Lime-a-rita's. Absolutely the best after a long day of cycling, over crushed ice. SO REFRESHING!

  38. Please dont stop making this stuff its great

  39. Had some this Fourth of July holiday and I will purchase again! Not a beer drinker but this may start the habit.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I'm a real snob about my margaritas--and I LOVE these! But yes, I felt bloated after drinking a couple. I'm definitely a fan, though. This is my drink of choice now. Makes my husband happy because it has more of a beer price in the bars (around $2.50)instead of a $10 cocktail. Love, love, love Lime-A-Ritas!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Try it with half a can, about 4 oz. of Fresca and a splash of O.J. Just like a fab top shelf margarita, especially with a salt rim. :) Love it.

    ReplyDelete
  42. If there was a side of salt!!!! ITS NICE!!

    ReplyDelete
  43. OMG NOT A BEER DRINKER BUT I LOVE THIS!!!! GREAT TASTE!!!

  44. Love them. Has a lot of calories. bummer

  55. Budlight lime and BudLight Lime-a-rita are both AWESOME. Both taste VERY different.

    I would suggest not popping in a budlight lime after drinking the margarita one. The maragarita one is so sweet that if you take a regular BLL after..it will taste like water in comparison.

    Drink both these beauties seperate!

    ReplyDelete
  56. i tried the strawberrita and it tasted like crap! was comparable to strawberry koolade that had gone very bad. I do not recommend this product to anyone...

    ReplyDelete
  57. Raz-Ber-Rita by far the best one out. I liked Cran-Ber-Rita also but it was seasonal.
