I don't know, but I'm pretty sure it is unfiltered, uses 70% wheat malt, and is just as good as Hacker.

We've had several at work. I think I'm limed out.

I was in Syracuse last weekend. Rite-Aid doesn't exist in Ontario.

Sad to say the Blue Light Lime has been out in NYS since last summer. If you look at Consumers Beverages online sale flyer for Buffalo you could cry at the price of beer, especially since it is all brewed in Toronto, and because yet again beer prices went up at the beer store.

Havent had bud light golden wheat... I am thinking a road trip and stocking up.

Blue Light Lime in the US is now being brewed out of the former Genesee plant in Rochester as a result of the Justice Department mandate for InBev to sell Labatt USA as a condition of the purchase of A-B.

I work at The Beer Store ( I know....forgive me.......but our store is great! :D ), and last weekend I must have had 3 or 4 people that came in and asked for Blue Light Lime. The appeal of Lime beers I can never understand. 24 ucs of Bud Light Lime are even going on in store display in a couple of weeks!
