It was kind of painful to put away a six pack of this stuff. Kind of good at first, definitely good on a hot summer day, but the lemon taste is way too fake and reminds me of the fake chemical taste of a lemon drop.

yellow and fizzy with a lot of head. All I can really taste is lemonade and salt, but that isn’t really a bad thing. I got this for $3 a six pack and I’ve found it works well for cleansing my pallet after a night of drinking heavy imperials and wanting something easy to drink. Better than mikes hard lemonade, thats for sure. More salt than sweet. a good beer for what it is.

Cloudy yellow pour, quite fizzy with carbonated head. Nose like liqoured up lemonade, little straw too. Flavor was pretty gross, lemonade with a little alcohol. Not like a Mikes hard lemonade so much, like if you took moms lemonade and a can of bud and mixed em together.

Poured a hazy yellow, thin shifting head. Aroma of lemons is thick and appealing. Hits the mouth with no body, water like, with notes of lime, and hardcore lemonade taste and finish. Salt is noticeable after a few sips. Don’t know what to think- if I wanted lemonade, I would buy that. Got no beer out of this one. A shame since Leinenkugel makes many brews that I like- but this isn’t one of them.

Ugh. Pours cloudy, attractive yellow, with a nice white head. Hmm, smells OK, lemon, of course. Taste, well, nothing but lemon pledge, or lemon cleaner. Just about the most discusting beer I have had in a long time. Can’t find anything good except it poured down the drain, making it smell nice.

Bottle. Hazy yellow body with a medium ring of bubbles. Nose-lime, citrus zest, salt. Smell like a well limed Corona. Taste-dirty, soapy dishwater from the lemonade factory, lime powder artificial citrus thin dirty gross. Very fake and citric tasting. Watered down lemon drops? Cheap unsweet lemonade. Smells nice but tastes bad.

Great summer time beer with a lemon flavor. Lighter finish to the beer makes it easy to have several in one sitting.
