Leinenkugels Summer Shandy

Brewed by Leinenkugel Brewing Company (MillerCoors)
Style: Fruit Beer
Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin USA

Cloudy blonde with big fluffy white head. The aroma is very limey, gingery. Sweet, a little bit sticky and a lot like lemonade. This isn’t much of a fruit beer so much as a hard lemonade.

On tap at Easy Street Cafe in Toledo. Murky bright yellow color with a nil white head that looks a little too similar to a glass of lemonade. Very little lacing. Aroma of Lemon Pledge and hops. Light-bodied and fizzy with a taste like...lemonade beer. Lemons and grassy hops are really all there is to this beer. The finish is citrusy and mercifully short. Not for me.

Lemony citrus flavor over a light wheat-ish ale. Drinks like a not-so-sweet malternative.

Pretty much what you would expect, a light beer with a distinct lemon flavor. Not mycup of tea or even my mug of beer.

Who waved a beer over this lemonade? Poured gold with a white head. Pretty much smells like a lemonade somewhere near a spilled beer. Tastes fine, if you like lemonade, but won’t satisfy the craving for beer. A great beer for anyone who doesn’t like beer.

Bottle: Pours a very hazy thick opaque yellow color, thin head and no lacing. The nose is lemony like a 7up with some light honey and hop. Soda like flavor with a thick body and thin carbonation. The finish is acidic. Either needs more beer or more lemonade, it’s straddling the fence of boring on both accounts. Hmm.

Pours gold/straw with a thin white head. Smells of wheat, lysol. Tastes like lemon candy with some beery hints. Alcopop.

Pours out...well....like lemonade. Light white head and aroma of lemonade, cereal grains and corn. Tastes like a macro lager that is heavy on the adjuncts mixed with lemonade. I drank half and poured the rest. Blech.
