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.

12 oz bottle thanks to the fridge. Clear straw color with small white head. Aroma is like cinnamon apples sauce, spice, not unlike a sweet cider. Very sweet apple juice with bitter malt finish, cinnamon, not good, not bad. Big carb, creamy, chalky, medium body. Gets a little strange as it warms up.

Ok for fall and winter time. Has a very distinct cider taste which makes it attractive for a campfire late in the season. Clear golden pour and sour aroma.

Ummm... clear golden pour, no visible carbonation or head. Green apple aroma. Ciderish taste, not all that sweet, some cinnamon. Bit funky on the back end, but it is what it is.

12 oz bottle. People like to rag on Leinie’s since they are owned by Miller, but they make pretty good "intro" beers. This pours a bright light yellow with a thin white head. Spicy apple aromas which are backed up by the flavor. A little too sweet, but the cinnamon flavors help. Its actually not that bad.

Bottle. Candied apple and malt aroma. Pale yellow color with small head. Sweet cinnamon and apple malt flavor. Tastes like spiced cider so delivers what it claims.

Golden, enriched urine yellow with rocky white head, mostly diminishing. Aroma! Let me tell you about the aroma... Skunky with an apple cinnamon flavor, almost as if Pepe le Pew regurgitated a box full of Apple Jacks. The beer is acidic with a bit of sweetness. The aftertaste is a very dry apple core. Carbonaion is very crisp, like a hard cider, which is nice. Overall, if Leinenkugel wanted to make a hard cider, why didn’t just do it instead of this mish-mash of styles.
