What’s the Best Lime Flavored Beer?
July 20, 2008
So the question is, What’s the best Lime flavored beer? I’m still pretty impressed how many people end up at The Brew Club website as a result of Liz’s recent review of Bud Light Lime.
Bud Lime has generated quite a buzz in the beer market, as it has on our own website! As a matter of fact, most of the people who commented on the Bud Lime post were in disagreement with our reviewer (hey, that’s cool!) and stated that they actually LOVED the Bud Light Lime!
So, in the name of science, The Brew Club has put up a little poll on our website where anyone can vote for the Best Lime Flavored beer!  BL Lime, Miller Chill, the old standby Corona and lime, and the last contestant in this Lime Flavored Beer death-match, Blue Moon “Rising Moon” .
The only lime flavored beer that has not been reviewed as of yet here on The Brew Club is Miller Chill, and technically we didn’t review the Corona with lime either, but hey, what can you do? We’ll have to remedy that situation somehow and try to get a sample to review for our readers. (Anyone want to submit a guest review of Miller Chill???)
So, what’s YOUR favorite Lime Flavored Beer? Bud Light Lime, Miller Chill, Corona with lime, Blue Moon Rising Moon, something else maybe??? Feel free to vote in our “What’s the Best Lime Flavored Beer” poll located on the right of this page, leave a comment, or better yet, vote AND leave a comment! We love to hear our reader’s opinions and registration is not required!

Give me a PO box number (email me if you don’t want to spread it around) and I’ll send you a typically Aussie beer to taste.
Love the site.

Thankfully we in the UK have been spared lime flavour beer, I think Becks may have but I suspect it’s only a matter of time.
Having said that, there is a tradition of adding a slug of lime cordial (or occasionally blackcurrant cordial) to lager. This sweetens the beer and tends to be popular with ‘the ladies’ or with youngsters who are new to the taste of ‘beer’.

Well I don’t think you could go past the latest beer to hit the shelves in Australia – ZEST Beer – Lime! It’s super refreshing and whilst it still has the beer taste, it does come complete with a citrus hit of lime. ZEST Beer also comes in Lemon too.

All I can say is that I LOVE Bud Light Lime. I’m Canadian, and I became familiar with it on a trip down to North Dakota. About a week later we found out that it came to Canada.
About a week after that, my cousin and I were picking up beer for his wedding, and we asked the Liquor Commission about Bud Light Lime. They said you cannot find it ANYWHERE. It sold out across Winnipeg in 2 days. No LC or beer vendor had any left. More came in about a week later with the same result. You still cannot find it anywhere. It is a phenomenon. IF you’re lucky enough to find some early in the week, BUY IT. Come Thursday or Friday you won’t find it anywhere again. I’m yet to find some, unless I go to a local pub/restaurant.

Another lime beer not listed here is Cactus Lime Lager in Canada. It’s very similar to Bud Light Lime, but it’s not a light beer, it’s 5%.

I enjoy BL lime, but am a huge fan of Michelob Ultra Lime Cactus

Cactus Lime Lager made by Russell Brewing in Vancouver is outstanding! Enjoyed a few cold ones on the patio of the infamous Cactus Club Cafe (similar name but I don’t think there’s an affiliation to the beer.) What a great beer! Much better than the Bud Light Lime in my opinion.

Best by far is Miller Chill. Not too much lime and very refreshing. Only 100 calories.

No way, Miller Chill is one of the worst in my opinion. I like alot of lime flavor, so I don’t like that one very much. This is my order:
1. Moosehead Light Lime
2. Russell Cactus Lime Lager
3. Bud Light Lime
4. (Tie) Big Rock Light Lime / Miller Chill

I recently returned from vacation in Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia. I tried a beer called “Barefoot Radler”. Infused with lime, its the best way to beat the heat. I know what Im stocking the fridge with for Christmas!!

Definantly reccomend Cactus Lime! I also make sure to bring home Miller Chill when visiting in the United States. I remember trying Bud Light Lime when I was in the US, then a couple months later it came to Canada and hit huge here in the Okanagan, BC. I would imagine Miller Chill will take the next wave when/if it makes it here. Not a huge fan of Big Rock in my opinion.

Interesting stuff! My personal favorite is still the Blue Moon spring seasonal Rising Moon? Just a little lime, but even still its not a favorite flavor in my beer.
