I drank a Bud Light Lime. There, I admitted it.
After giving so much derision to The AB company for creating Bud Light Lime and writing this ridiculous press release, I was amazed when I tried the beverage at a party last weekend and found it to be, remarkably, really good. Well, actually, what happened was I took a sip and laughed out loud, because it doesn't taste like beer as much as it tastes like sprite. But then, there's something so delicious about alcoholic sprite, with the slightest taste of beer. It's so much lighter than say a hard lemonade, a with the added bonus of making you look like less of a pussy.
So you win Anheuser-Busch. You've finally managed to make a beer that I will consume. Like other "playful, outgoing men and women," I will enjoy this drink "Whether reclining poolside, playing a friendly pick-up game of volleyball on the beach or mingling at a rooftop party in the city." Or actually, sitting by the computer and finishing my work, like I'm doing right now. But who's keeping score.
