A class-action lawsuit against Anheuser-Busch could be settled soon and you might be eligible for part of it.

Back in 2018 before the slim can, alcohol filed seltzer craze started (White Claw) there was a canned drink that some say started it all. The "Lime-a-Rita", disturbed by Anheuser-Busch was one of the first canned drinks that offered adults the chance to enjoy a margarita-type drink in a can.

Once the drinks hit store shelves many drinkers became quick fans, but some wondered if the brewers of the drinks were misleading when advertising the drink. Some of the ads that were used to promote the drinks mislead some by allegedly saying that they contained tequila or wine.

The misleading advertising led to a class-action lawsuit that was recently filed in Missouri. According to the settlements website, the lawsuit alleges that Anheuser-Busch advertised that the drink contains tequila or wine when they do not. Anheuser-Busch has denied any wrongdoing but has announced that they have settled the lawsuit.
