Amazing
by IrishWhiskeyI made this beer and it was a hit at my party. it almost had to much of a lime flavor for some people so i would maybe add half the amount of lime-aid.this is defiantly a beer to try.
Delicious!
by rammaMade this with some lemon lime all juice combo that I found at the store. Turned out to be one of the best things I've brewed. Not too hoppy, not too lemon & limey, and extremely drinkable.

Great "House Beer"
by steveintheparkEveryone that has tried this has loved it. Being from the UK I substituted the simply limeade for:
juice of 9 limes
200g sugar
top up to 1.75L with boiled water
It is fantastic. Well recommended.
Way to much Lemon-Lime
by mucci2kI upped the IBU's to 24 and it was still to sweet. If I did it again I will cut the Limeade in half.
I have doubts about the fermentation with lemon
by LiebreferozHello everyone, I have doubts, at what time of the fermentation is the lemon added?
Great Recipe
