It's no secret that I loathe fruity flavored canadian 40s. Surprisingly, however, this vodka lime flavored malt beverage is one of the better ones. As
usual, 40 ounces of it is too much at one time - by the halfway point I was sick of it. The most similar 40 to his would have to be Molson Lemon Dry (lemon vs
lime), but this one is better. This is probably similar to Smirnoff Ice & drinks like that, but I don't drink that crap so I honestly can't
compare them too closely. As not-completely-terrible as this was, I still would prefer to never drink it again in my lifetime. Overall 4/10 swills.

Hot day in Montreal, needed the 40 for my collection, what the hell!
As most Canadian 40's, very heavy brown glass widemouth, very long to chill. I wanted it ice cold so pounded it in a pint glass with icecubes in it. The taste is great, very foamy. It goes down real well. At 7% I would have expected a better buzz. This is a drink for the ladies on a hot summer day. Oh yeah, it's very expensive, 6.50CAD$. 5/10 cuz of the taste, will not buy again. EDIT: Now costs over 7 CAD$.

Drank this crap tonight, I only had like 2 or 3 Vodkice before since it's on the market (like 4 years ago)
First of all, it's 7% but it gave me NO BUZZ !! and after half the 40 this shit make me feel like crap. Like sippin apache said, this shit is expensive as hell, I paid 6.17$ at my local store. Who want to pay 6.17$ for a 40 ?! even in Canadian money this is ridiculous. The taste is not THAT bad, probably the ''best'' tasting fruity around here. I doubt I will buy this again. 4/10 taste 4.5/10 buzz  |

Yea, as Nitz and Bruz said, this shit is essentially Skyy Blue or Smirnoff in a 40. The 40 goes so slowly, but it's like a more sugary version of Squirt. There is nothing in the way of buzz that is encountered after drinking this 40. There is a little bit of belly soreness afterward, and from what Nitz said, the 40 costs a lost, so why would you buy it? I'm thinking this is done for the same reason that Bud Light 40s are made; for people afraid of chugging some real shit and are driving later on in the night. Buzz: 0/10. Taste: 5/10. Swill: 4/10.

Just cracked this bitch, these Canadian caps suck. . . . the whole thing slowly turns off with little to no hiss, lame
Anywayz i was a little curious goin into this one, vodka 40? hmmmmm well its basically Smirnoff Ice in a 40, lots of sugar and carboniation, gets old quick you know, not that its a compliment, but its much better than evil eye red or sour in sugar sweetness effects If i had access to this i would buy it when i had 3 ladies comin over and pour it into 3 separate fine dining glasses, and toss a lime in each glass. But other than this particular situation, i would never buy it. Dope bottle though

Had a close friend grab me this on a Montreal run.............
Boomerang Vodkice, it's not too bad, from the first swig i instantly think Molson Dry Lemon. About half way the 40 i realize, i should be sitting outside in the sun enjoying this like a summer cocktail by the BBQ. For a 7% malt it feels very weak! In my opinion this should be enjoyed over ice in a big glass. Taste 2/10 Buzz 4/10 Cost 1/10

For some reason I have wanted this for a long time.
I think the bottle looks dope, so I was glad when I finally got it from my boy Dot. I cracked this last sunday night, while I watched my bloody valentine (1981) The cap came off whole, no ring detachment and no hiss what so ever. First taste was that of a Smirnoff Ice, not a bad thing in my mind. I have had both of the Evil Eyes and also the Saskaberry and Orangsicle and thought this was the best tasting. It went down smooth, not sure if its really 7% didnt give me a buzz more of a sugar headahce. Thanks to dot for giving me the chance to taste this and also adding it to my collection is awsome. I would say 7 out of 10 for label and taste
