Beers Of The Week - Bud Light Orange & Bud Light Lime

Welcome to a first here at bumwinebob.com as we feature our first ever BEERS of the week! I mentally debated this one to see if I really wanted to go through with it, but I figured since it's summer why the hell not? More beers the better!


Bud Light Lime and Bud Light Orange are two of the most heavily hyped beers this summer with TV commercials running constantly and advertisements hanging in stores. Both are coming in as 4.2% ABV. "light" beers with lime at 112 calories and orange at 142 calories.



Bud Light Orange is the new kid on the block since it was just released a few months ago in April 2018 as Anheuser-Busch's new summer beer. I tried it for the first time right after it came out and wasn't very impressed. I was expecting something similar to a Blue Moon, but found the orange taste in the Bud Light Orange a little too overpowering. I've heard some people say to think about it more as a hard orange soda than a beer brewed with orange peels, and I could agree with that statement. It's not an all day drinker in my opinion, but as a one off it's not a bad choice.



Bud Light Lime is no newcomer to the beer market as it's been around since 2008, and a fairly good seller as Anheuser-Busch's answer to a Corona Light with a lime wedge in my opinion. The first few sips are strong with the lime, but it gets smoother as you keep drinking. It's fairly light and crisp, so it's good for the hot summer days.
