I had a bunch of limes from us drinking Caronas a while back. I put them in a Bud a few minutes ago and it tastes great. I always had this Mexican bias about limes in beer. I guess I should be more open minded.

Most people think of Corona when they think of the lime wedge in the beer... But it should work in any lighter beer. Miller even makes their "Chill" beer that I believe is Miller Lite with "a hint of lime and salt". I've never put salt in my beer, but lime is great in a lighter lager beer in these warm months.

Warsteiner no aditives. Cheers! If you like citrus go ahead and add some salt to the mix All the lawnguys love it that way.

Go for the total yuppie look while drinking that Mexican beer with a slice of lime and point your pinkie out while drinking. "Lawnguys", now that's funny. But I could be wrong... and the opinions are mine and may not reflect general opinion.

I think they make a Budlight with lime.

I think I saw Heineken with lime at the store.Warsteiner with lime. It's getting real scary in my world.

I am usually a dark beer guy or at least a full body beer but the Budlite with Lime is really great, especially when you are really thursty.
Goes down easy and not that filling.

I actually drink either Miller Lite or Bud Light and always with a lime. Come to think if it, unless its a good dark beer I drink them all with a lime Amberbock is great with lime.

now I want a cold beer

Now I want a sliced lime with sea salt.

bunch of yuppies.......
the only thing that should be added to a beer is a shot of Tequila-DON'T FRUIT THE BEER!!!!!

Just give me a freakin' cold Michelob!
And NO! I don't mean an "Ultra", or "Dry", or any other kind, Dammit! Lime is good if it's blazing hot and I'm dehydrated. But it's not a deal breaker since the invention of Freon.

A few times I found myself in Colorado and stopped off at the Coors brewery. That's where I fell in love with Blue Moon.. with or without the orange slice.

My brother-in-law works for Coors - he drives the train (is that a cool job or what??). He always has Blue Moon in the fridge.

I don't drink anything with lime or lemons anymore. I saw one of those expose' reports showing the filth that is found on bar cutting boards. Apparently they never get washed because they always have a part of a lime and the knife sitting on them. Makes sense to me. It was worse than the bathroom. I don't touch water if it has lemon in it after seeing that!
Beer should be drunk straight up!

I thought the reason you put the lime in a Carona is because it tastes like **** and you're trying to mask the taste.

No Thanks!!! I want my beer to just taste like beer

Dad said "you're not suppose to put food in your beer."

wow. Pretty strong opinions about beer. You'd think we're talking about dead abortionists! With all due respect, I'd put a dog **** in my beer if it tasted good, wheather you all like it or not. I just don't have the guts to be the first guy to try it. I'll ask Obama to ask Kieth Oberman to try it. Oberman would be out on the lawn in a second looking for a dog **** to heed the wishes of his living God.

On a warm summer afternoon/evening: XX Lager (green bottle) with a bit of lime. Flavorful yet satisfying. A few drops of lime juice from a bottle works just as well as a squeeze from a lime wedge. The touch of lime makes the beer even more refreshing. XX Lager with a touch of lime also compliments steak off the grill quite well.

Of course, some beers should never be "fruitted" IMO. Darker beers and brews that are heavy on the hopps don't work well with fruit, IMO. Some wheat brews are good with a touch of lemon or orange.

As for the salt - never much like it in any beer, but some love it.

MMMMM, Fat Tire, Hold the fruit!!!

Class III

These beer companies with their fake lime.... My Southern friends in college were drinking 32's of Miller High Life with lime long before the company "thought" of it. Is it the best beer? Heck no. Is there a better (read:cheaper) thirst quencher on a hot day? Negative.

Of course, my favorite beer is my next one.

+1. Stay away from the pre-fruitted fake lime stuff. Add the lime/lemon/orange after opening/pouring if that's your thing. Plus, if your drinking pal(s) don't like the fruit, they can skip it and just have their beer without the fruit. Never did understand the reasoning behind selling pre-fruitted beer with artificial lime flavor. I guess if folks will buy it someone will make it.

4406v, Corona doesn't taste like ****, but it sure does smell like it. I can get drunk on one beer. Usually #7 or #8.

That's a pretty nice job! My fridge is sadly lacking Blue Moon...

Two great things about the tour is at one point you stop and get a sample of either Coors or Coors light fresh from production.... MAN is that GOOD!!! Then at the end you get three free beers... anything Coors makes. Funny though... the gift shop is located AFTER the free beer area.. so they get a bunch of half drunk people buying stuff they normally wouldn't.

Didn't see that one comin'....

Thought all folks up in PA only drank Yuengling and Straub supplimented by the occasional Rolling Rock or Iron City .... all by the case, of course... State mandate or something....

Didn't even know they let Coors (or even Bud)enter the state!

(Just a good-natured tease... PA is home to many good breweries. I have never been disappointed by the beer on my visits...)

Haha.. no I hear ya! I think many of my friends drink Yuenling... because it's local.

But as to getting my hands on the Coors products.. lets just say it usually takes place in a back alley far from view....

I never liked Coors during high school, but in '76 I hitch hiked home from Wash. DC with a friend. We were 19. Had massive backpacks. When in Denver and our first hotel in a while we were at a pizza place and I thought it was appropriate to drink Coors. It was wonderful! Maybe phycological but who cares. Now I drink it all the time. I got massive sunburn riding in the back of a P.U. truck through Kansas between two lightning storms. Peeled the skin off my leg back in Ca. and it's still in my photo album under plastic. Excuse me for digressing...
