Draft. Poured hazy reddish yellow color with an average fizzy white head that mostly lasting with fair lacing. Good lemon and berry aroma. Medium body with a smooth thick texture and soft carbonation. Medium sweet lemonade flavor with medium sweet finish of moderate duration. This sweet beer met my expectations.

12 oz bottle-thanks Glenn-offwhite-pink. A-fruit, lt malt. T-sweet fruit-some lemon/grapefruit soda, 2nd lt malt.

While shopping at Giant Eagle market district I had a 2-3 oz sample of this from a littel kiosk. Decently fresh taste, does have that typical shandy feel to it and the berries are ever present. Not too bad over all and I found it quite refreshing. there was a little bitterness on the finish but nothing over the top.

Semi hazy pink pour with a white head. Sweet berry aroma with faint hints of lemon. Tastes like it smells...dominant sweet berries initially with a light lingering lemon flavor. Watery texture with average carbonation. About what you would expect based on the label. A little too sweet, but it is drinkable.

12oz bottle poured into glass. Very fruity, much more so then most shandy’s I’ve had. Lemons up front with hints of raspberries on the back end. Sort of like a sprite soda really.

Pours a cloudy reddish orange with small head and moderate lacing. Aroma of blackberries, orange. Smells much like a sangria. Very sweet aroma with a hint of tartness. Spritzy carbonation with medium body. Medium sweet finish. Not bad for what it is, but it reminds more of a wine cooler than anything.

Nice light beer for summer. A bit carbonated for me but not overwhelming. Good fruit flavor.

On tap at Wild Wings n Things (Fort Collins). Dark orange and cloudy. Sweet fruity aroma, lemons, candy, citrus. Light body with a crisp feel. Fruity and refreshing, not too bad.

12oz twist-off bottle. Cloudy, orange-pink color. Thin white ring. Sweet aroma, tart wheat, and berry lemonade scent. Sweet flavor. Hearty wheat backbone, layered in is some lemonade and light berries. Much better than the regular Leinie’s Lemon Shandy. Fall release... Where was this during the summer? (3470)

Visually, the beer reminds me of pink grapefruit juice - translucent, pinky-yellow-brown, thin white foam, cluttered label, twistoff longneck. Zippy, sweet lemon aroma with some earthiness. Light body. Fresh - powdery, slightly floral, mineral flavors, a strange bittering, soilish tones. Sweetness is not overbearing or clingy. Thin, but frothy mouth. Mild, medium, fruity finish. A reasonable tailgate/BBQ/boating beer. Publix, I-10 and Thomasville Rd.
