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.

12 oz can from the Fall Shandy variety pack bought at Super 1 in Post Falls, ID. Aroma is berries, ginger, lemon, SweeTarts. Pours cloudy yellow-orange with a medium white head with good retention; laces the glass nicely. Taste is sweet and tart with the aroma descriptors present, although the berries almost taste like fermented grapes or something; wheat comes out after it sits in the glass for a couple minutes. Almost tastes as much like soda as beer. Body is thin, texture watery, carbonation high. It’s decent, but I’d never pay for one again.

Can. Pours a hazy gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a combination of cranberry and ginger with some wheat underlying. Flavor has lots of cranberry with some sweet ginger with a bit of earthy wheat underlying.

12 ounce can. Pours a hazy salmon tinged yellow with a large foamy white head. Fair head retention. Aroma of wheat, sweet berries, mild candied ginger. The taste is citrus, wheat, tart cranberry finish. Mild hints of candied ginger. Thin-medium bodied, slightly artificial.
