We wanted to create something new to engage with these consumers and bring them into the Bud Light family,” says Andy Goeler, vice president of marketing, Bud Light. “Flavored beer has seen steady growth with consumers continually looking for higher quality beverages made with real, natural flavors. Bud Light Lime and Bud Light Orange answers that call and reinforces Bud Light’s commitment to quality consumers have trusted for over 35 years.”

To build on this product launch, Bud Light’s new commercials — titled “Earth” and “Taste It” — feature Bud Light Lime and new Bud Light Orange, highlighting how both are brewed with real citrus peels for summertime refreshment. The new packs for Bud Light Lime and new Bud Light Orange feature bright orange and lime details, with accents of real citrus peels.
