    EXACTLY, women are the biggest demo for the big guys when it comes to light or flavored beers. For that matter any one who "doesn't like the taste of beer" or what they know is beer from the mass marketed BMC stuff that's out there. Good for the big guys, keep on, keeping on another job well done...and another wasted thread on this stuff, not that I mind, it is BEER advocate. Just that it's always the same tired pile on session...and here I am adding to it :rolling_eyes:

    And it amazes me that people want to buy this product in the first place.

    Honestly, this is what they should be doing. People like it. And their beer sucks. Why not?

    One time, I went on vacation with the father in law.
    He wanted to buy me a six-pack and asked if I liked Bud Lite Lime?

    This whole conversation reminds of my response.

    Ha! Love that response. I think pee was aged in those barrels. That's were they get the sourness out of the uric acid.

    Walked into the Winn-Dixie grocery store near my house in Florida today and sitting in the bins where they put BOGO and cheap specials were a bunch of small cans, priced at $1 each I think. At first I thought it was V8 juice, then I noticed it was this Bud-a-rita stuff. I guess the same people that buy wine coolers/Bartles & James, JD Tennessee Tea, etc will buy these. LOL, I probably would have drank this in high school too.

    I decided to try the lime-a-rita to see what all the hype was about when it first came out. I could literally only take one sip. I'm surprised I didn't get diabetes from that one sip. It's sad people are that damn lazy to make an actual margarita.

    First she brings in tons of clothes and shoes. I can handle it.
    Then she brings in tampons. I can handle it.
    Now she brings in strawberry lime a rita. I cant handle it.
    She is great, but I think she needs to go. if only divorces weren't so expensive.

    Glad I have a separate beer fridge. I would be embarrassed to put those things next to my glorious beer.

    The kicker is I took a sip and it tastes like chemicals.

    Not that it matters, but my wife hated it too. Looks like we are bringing lime a ritas to the next party we attend....
