While we are on the subject of food stuff? I heard yesterday they had been talking and has been out for some time-beer with a lime taste. Now I think its Bud Light, is about to release a beer with a taste of orange??? Sounds kinda gross to me but, then I aint a beer drinker.

There are all kinds of flavored beers out there: raspberry, tangerine, blueberry, watermelon, etc. If you have a favorite fruit you will probably find a beer to match.
 
I don't drink beer very often but it is good every now and then.

A squeeze of lemon is traditional in Germany/Austria for Hefeweizen beer (Wheat beer). It is delightful on a warm summer evening.

In England, they go further and mix 1/2 beer 1/2 lemonade and call it Shandy. It is something common to have during the day that will not make you tipsy. I think it is maybe 1.5% alcohol at most.

People tend to add lime to Corona beer. Probably because lime goes well with Mexican food and it helps make the beer taste better. I think they have a lime flavored one. Not a brand I purchase so don't know much about it.

ShockTop, available in most supermarkets is Belgian White beer that has a splash of orange added. It has been on the market for about 10 years (as far as I know). They now have other citrus flavors too. It is pretty good.

You can find just about any fruit flavored beer now in the supermarket, raspberry, apricot, blueberry, cranberry. There are many brands that do a pumpkin spice in the fall. I have seen some strange flavors. I believe there was another thread that mentioned a pork roast flavored beer (?).

It is interesting to taste different things, but as far as purchasing beer, I just go for the simple. I know what my husband likes and that is what I get 99% of the time. :)
 
speakin' of "root beer" beer---many years ago, the spouse and I brewed up a large batch of root beer; cut back on the sugar and used a champaign-type yeast. We bottled it in beer bottles and set all the cases out in the garage to ferment. Could tell it was getting ready when we'd be awakened by the sound of bottles exploding in the hot July night. It was really tasty and ran over 10% alcohol, I think. Hmmm..might be time to see if she still remembeers the formula...
