2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20I have enjoyed Leinenkugels beers in the past but have to wonder about the wisdom in this effort. A wheat beer is such a wonderful thing and doesn’t really need to be improved. Perhaps it will find a niche market. The beer itself tastes like someone poured lemonade in a hefe to the detriment of both. On the other hand it makes for a light easy drinking warm weather brew. My guess is that wine tasters don’t rate wine coolers very highly and beer tasters won’t be kind to this.

Pours a bright yellow with a lemon zest aroma. Taste is refreshing, with a lemon flavor. A bubbly beer that is easy drinking. This beer almost tastes like a cider with the lemony enhanced flavor. A good beer on a hot day, but it lacks any complexity.

12 oz. bottle. Hazy, pale, yellow, with a big, pillowy, white head. Very forward lemonade, hay, light biscuit dough, and coriander. Very sweet and citrusy flavor. Light body, lightly acidic, and very lemony. I’m still not really sure I like it.
1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 5/20
Oy. Drinking this so that I don’t have to drink it again. Pours a very cloudy whitish yellow color with a moderate white head on it. Nose is very sour like lemonade. Taste isn’t as sour as the nose would imply, but very lemony nonetheless. Not my thing. Oy.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pale golden honey brown with a marshmallowy white head. Aroma is something between a lemon and hops. Tastes like lemon beer, which actually isn’t that awful. Pretty decent beer.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Nice appearance: retains fluffy white head. Smells like gatorade powder plus a handful of fresh lemon zest.
Watery taste, esp when cold. Artificial lemonade plus light pale ale. Mild sweetness from the grain. Lemon-lime gatorade. Wheat body gets lost in the carbonation; a bit too light for my tastes. Crisp and refreshing, no off flavors. Most people could probably pound this stuff, but I'm honestly more confident in my ability to destroy large amounts of Breakfast Stout over this.
1.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20
Bottle. Dominant synthetic lemon syrup aroma and flavour, like County Time Good Old Fashion Lemonade. More a cooler than a beer. Gross.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Hazy golden color. Lemonade nose. Taste is semi sweet with lemonade on the finish. Body is thin.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
I love this beer. I like carbonation so more would have been nice but the flavor was good. I liked the lemon clover nice and refreshing with a smooth feel and no bitter after taste.

This is really not something I would classically consider beer but it is really refreshing. It smells and tastes like lemonade with beer in it. Funny how that works huh?

Pours a cloudy pale yellow. Moderate aroma of lemon, citrus, and sweetness. The flavor is moderately sweet with a taste of lemonade and a touch of grassy hops. Perfect beer for a hot summer day. Easy to drink and refreshing.
