Bud Light Seltzer Retro Summer tie-dye variety pack

On a beach trip, you want a light seltzer with the right summer vibe. What better pack for the job than the Bud Light Seltzer Retro Summer edition?

Drinking these in the sun with your feet in the sand, or between volleyball games as the Sharks prefer, just feels right. Every flavor is sweet and light enough to enjoy until the case runs dry. That said, not all flavors are created equal.

Cherry Limeade

Jared, 8.6: Take it with a grain of salt since I’m a documented cherry limeade lover, but this flavor is a confirmed banger. Sweeter than Blue Raspberry but still reasonable. Great summer taste.

Cam, 8.3: Just above average for a cherry limeade, which is an enjoyable, refreshing flavor in general. Not my favorite, but you can’t go wrong relaxing on the beach with an ice-cold one.

Blue Raspberry

Jared, 7.5: Tastes as advertised. The blue raspberry comes through fairly strong. Light, refreshing, and I can’t taste the alcohol at all. Just the right amount of sweetness.

Cam, 8.4: Blue raspberry is a wonderful flavor. This one is only moderately sweet and a bit underwhelming for blue raspberry, but it’s still one of my favorite flavors overall.

Summer Ice

Jared, 7.7: Kinda sweet, kinda cherry, definitely a good seltzer. Not elite, but I’m thoroughly enjoying it with an Ocean City beach view.

Cam, 7.9: Cherry seltzers are usually delicious, but this one falls slightly short of the other two. Nothing wrong with it; it just doesn’t stand out from any other cherry seltzer.
