Anyone tried Miller Chill?

Miller Chill is a great new beer. It is only available right now in some Southwestern states as well as Florida.

Anyone else tried it? Like it? Hate it because of the taste? Hate it because it is a macrobrew?

Meh.

I guess I can see the appeal to people who are not beer geeks. It tastes like a generic American Pilsner with lime juice. It seems a little more refreshing than straight-up beer.

I’m not going to go out of my way to drink it; there’s just too many other, better beers out there. OTOH if someone put one in my hand at a party or something, I wouldn’t gag on it.

I bought some last week, and won’t be buying it again.

I refuse to try it because it might taste like Tequiza. Seriously - that stuff is so vile, I think it’s the only time I’ve ever spit out beer. Definitely ruined me on the whole “let’s add this and see what it tastes like” phenomenon when it comes to beer.

It is far better than Tequiza!!!

I keep thinking this is asking about Miller Chili, which then tends to make my knees feel a bit wobbly.

I’m probably one of the 1% that liked Tequiza. I’d try it.

The word “chill” puts Barry and Levon in my head. I’d probabably buy $240 worth if they were the spokesmen.

Aw yeah!

Come on now, where would they get $240?

Don’t you worry your pretty little head about it.

Heh. Pudding.

I don’t care! I WANNA DIP MY BALLS IN IT!!

Tie and all.

No, you’re thinking of Miller Teabag, still in development.

Never have seen Miller Chill, but I’ve had the Budweiser & Clamato thing - maybe they’re testing it out here. It’s not so good.

I tried Miller Chill while it was in development. I think it would be very refreshing on a hot day.

It’s nothing at all like Tequiza.

I think it’s best that I don’t comment further.

It’s not that great.

It tastes ok but its nothing special. I don’t even taste the lime but then I use a lot of lime when I do put it into beer. Most people just plop a tiny wedge into the beer without even squeezing the juice out first. I squeeze the juice out of 5 or 6 tiny wedges and then plop the wedges into the beer. The lime makes the crappy beer taste good but then again I was addicted to limes and lime juice for a couple years. I drank several cups of lime juice (the store bought kind, not straight from the lime itself) and added limes or the juice from them to practicly everything I ate.

Beer + limes = blech!

If the beer needs lime juice added to it to make it drinkable, it’s crappy beer to begin with.

Here I was expecting a variety of chili made with beer. That might be acceptable, provided I couldn’t actually taste the beer. :slight_smile:

I was buying beer for a party last weekend and saw it, so I picked up a six pack. I thought the lime flavor was way too weak. I preferred just putting limes in the Dos Equis and Tecates instead.

At a Sam Adams brewery tour, the difference between clear, green, and amber bottles was being discussed, why one was used above the others, etc. The tourguide asked “Does anyone know why people jam a lime wedge into some beers?” No one knew. “To kill the taste of the beer” was the reply.

I agree with silenus. If you can’t drink a beer without having to add flavor to it or mask the flavor it already has, you probably shouldn’t be buying that particular brand of beer in the first place.
