Did you know that Wisconsin produces more cranberries than any state in America? Our hometown pride inspired us to brew Leinenkugel’s Cranberry Ginger Shandy. The combination of wheat beer, cranberry and ginger is as refreshing as a toboggan ride Out Here.

Fantastic orange, ginger, pine, bubble gum nose. Hazy amber, medium yellowish head. Cranberry and ginger turning to strong wheat malt and bubble gum. Medium body, easy carbonation. This is actually good, really, really good. It may not be "cool" to say so, but Leinenkugel’s makes some really neat beers. This is one of them.

12 oz. bottle. Cloudy yellow with an amber or pink hue, no head. Aroma is a light lasting cranberry, nothing more.

Flavor is a moderate tart berry without any acidity or astringency. Mild note of a wheat backbone. Weak notes of ginger in a thin watery body. Is this totally undrinkable? No. But I’m not rushing to the supermarket to stock up on 6 packs.

Bot. Mouth watering cranberry aroma, not artificial. Almost clear pale. Very good initial impressions, very fresh and fruit like without too much sugar. Again, not artificial; lots of fruit but its not quite a fru-fru-fruity beer like so many artificial tasting versions. Palate is quite refreshing with its cutting co2. Good job at a radler. No real impressions of alky, simple fruit covers it well. Ginger? What ginger? Well, maybe just a hint if you look for it.

Family Christmas party gave me free shandy rate fuck yea. Nose is cranberry spice. Tastes of cranberry, ginger, all spice, some berry. It’s light easy going but tasty enough.

Bottle. Berry, wheat malt and light ginger aroma. Hazy honey gold with a moderate white head. Wheat malt and tart berry flavor with a little ginger zing. Light crisp body, lively carbonation. I really like both ginger and cranberry, so I like this twist on a shandy.

Bouteille. Ambrée claire, col blanc. Rien bien spécial, note finement aigrelette de la canneberge avec une fine note épiée de gingembre. Le tout gardant une fine dose de malt pils, léger houblonné noble proche d’un soda-pop. Sans être révolutionnaire, ce shandy à au moins le mérite d’être original.
