Commercial Description:
The leaves - at the height of their color, but before the inevitable fall. And the apples - ripe for the picking, and the absolute peak of their flavor. It's this moment that you'll find captured in our new Leinenkugel's Apple Spice. We take the fresh, delicious taste of real apples - as crisp as the first bite off the tree - and add just a touch of cinnamon for a hint of spice. The result is a mouthwatering blend that's perfect for sharing with friends. It's flavor to the core. We use over 2000 pounds of apples in every brew.

Had this one bottled. Light but fluffy white head, VERY light in color, almost glowing, a hint of cloudiness. Pronounced nose of apples and hoppiness, immediate bite of cider followed by cinnamon and nutmeg. Sweet early but tapering off to a pleasant dryness. A very impressive concoction from Leinies; this is an exceedingly good fruit beer.

Bottle - Pours a pale limp yellow with a bubbly white head. Smells sour and soapy, with light cinammon and green apple Jolly Rancher candy. Tastes syrupy and sweet, with bread dough and nutmeg up front, apple cider on the finish. The tingly carbonation and syrupy feel are alright, but I never get the feel that this is authentic. Tastes way artificial.

I really did not like this. My first drain pour in a ling time. A mix of artificial apple syrup and an overly spiced mess of a sweet nasty.

Had this the ONE year they had it out a couple of years ago. A disgusting mix of cider and beer that should go away! Haha - funny note... I just stumbled upon this comment and laughed out loud because it is gone, and they replaced it with the delicious Fireside Nutbrown.

Bought this around Thanksgiving just to give it a shot. If I loved apple flavored beers this would be great. Smell is great of apples and cinnamon. Really sweet flavor is overpowering.

Hmmm....intriguing. I like the aroma....reminds me of the inside of an apple orchard, with the fresh apples and cinnamon from the doughnuts. Flavor is overly sweet, with an almost candy-like flavor from the apples. Cinnamon is there, but is out of balance with the rest of the beer.

Pale gold with an average head. Strong smells reminds me a the ready mix cider that you can buy. You could definitely chug this stuff down because it drinks more like an apple soda than a beer.

Pretty good smell of apple candles. It doesn’t pour particularly well. But the flavor is a sugary concoction of apple good.
