If you've ever experienced a Northwoods sunset, you know it's a moment unlike any other. So instead of putting it into words, we captured the Northwoods' finest moment in every batch of our all-new Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat. Brewed with malted wheat, Cluster hops and natural coriander, Sunset Wheat has a soothing taste that will leave you speechless. It's like your very own sunset in a bottle.

Bottle. Big fruity citrus and wheat aroma. Cloudy straw gold with a small white head, nice lacing. Citrusy mixed fruit flavor -- lemon, lime, berry -- and coriander flavor. Medium body and carbonation. One of the best from Leinenkugels I’ve had to date.

Straight from the can in camp. Better than expected. Smooth, crisp with hints of fruit, honey, wheat. Some other raters suggest this would be something to offer someone as a gateway from Bud Lite (etc) to craft beer. I agree.

355ml bottle @ Corey & Angela’s place. Slightly hazy yellow to golden color, medium sized white head. Smell wheat and coriander. Taste wheat, lightly coriander and some hints of citrus. Pretty fresh. Low to medium carbo, low body.

A different taste from the German Weisse beers I’ve been drinking. Very citrusy. Orange peel? Almost like a blend of German weisse and Belgian witbier. Color is orange /gold and hazy. Light and airy head that stays with the drink on the way down. A nice summer drink from Leinenkugel.

Bottle. Hazy amber beer with a cream head. Spice and wheat aroma. Orange and wheat flavor with light spice. Medium bodied. Refreshing. Orange and wheat linger with light earthiness.

12oz bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a cloudy light orange with about a finger of white head. Aroma of coriander, wheat, banana and citrus. Taste is about the same. Lightly sweet with some nice citrus on the aftertaste. Light bodied with a somewhat sticky texture. Lively carbonation and a decently long finish. Overall, not bad. Would be a great intro to craft for most BMC drinkers.
