Lionshead is a classic Standard American Lager Crisp, clean and slightly dry with some residual sweetness, it is as refreshing as it is thirst-quenching.
We use the finest American two-row and six-row barley and corn; domestic hops add just a touch of bitterness.

Bottle. Pours clear gold. White head. Nose of pale malt, honey and apple skin. Taste of watered down sweet malts and apple skin. Odd.

bottle - Apparently Indiana distributors were thinking, what we need in this market is another bland pale lager. Enter Lionshead and Lionshead Light. It pours clear yellow with a small white head and smells of grainy malt. The flavor is sweet, light, and grainy. It’s drinkable and not terribly watery like the light version of this beer is. I’d call it better than most of the macro pale lagers, but that’s saying very little.

Faint malt and hay aroma. Hazy golden with a thin head. Sour malt flavor. Hay finish. This is just a no frills type of beer. It costs less than a macro in a lot of places. I would drink it again.

12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods Market, Short Pump, VA. Pours a clear orangeish yellow color with loads of carbonation. Medium creamy white head shows fair head retention and lacing. Aroma is grainy with sweet corn and grassy hop notes. Taste is sweet corn, sugar and the faintest note of grain and green apple. No bitterness at all. Thin-medium bodied,

bottle. Typical pale lager, light in color, aroma weak. Dull, boring, crispness barely existent. Lawnmower to the max. However, compared to macros, this one is not bad.

Bottle. Pours a transparent gold with just a wisp of a head, lots of carbonation rising to the surface and pleasant aromas of fruit, grass and corn syrup. Even though the aromas are alright, flavor falls apart a bit as the corn dominates and buries some of the more interesting things that come out in the nose. Even though it isn’t a bad beer, it loses its crispness and comes across as a little bit too sweet...

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a medium golden color with a medium sized soapy white head. The aroma was light dry crisp floral hops. The flavor was light and dry with a vague hint of pepper and a mild floral hop presence.

Ten bucks for a case of 24 bottles. Not the worst beer, but far from the best. It is very easy to get sick of the taste after drinking it for a few days straight. Highlight of the beer is the little riddles that they put under the bottle cap. Really forces you to think while you drink.
