About
In May 1867, the Leinenkugel family brewery was founded in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin by Jacob Leinenkugel. He was a family man driven by an iron work ethic, and he knew that his German family heritage would play an integral part of his brewery’s success. Today, the sixth generation of Leinenkugels continues to brew some of the same family-inspired recipes that Jacob poured his heart and soul into. Over the years, our family has grown and so has our brewery, but our history and heritage remain at the forefront.

Fruit beer styles, such a variety of flavors. 12 0z brown bottle for a $1 at Vintage Estates. Twist off the lid and you get a smell of lemon, lots of lemon and citrus and not of the hop variety. I can also detect some wheat beer smells in the background. Look just like a really nice wheat beer cloudy and all. The color of vanilla or off white, slightly yellow, but barely. There is not any gunk i on the bottom of the bottle and I don’t perceive any precipitants floating around in there. Interesting flavor, not sweet like lemonade. From the previous reviews I was expecting lemonade but this is not. Lemon flavored yes but it is not nearly as sweet. Perhaps it can be compared to unsweetened lemonade or something. Very good carbonation. I do sense some wheat stuff in there, you can tell it is a wheat based brew. Overall not bad for a fruit beer but for a wheat beer this leaves something to be desired. Lancaster strawberry wheat, whittekirke rose and Buffalo Bills Orange Blossom Cream Ale are better than this. However, this is much more palatable than Abita purple haze and Bar Harbor True Blue Blueberry Ale.

12 oz bottle...cloudy golden color, a typical wheat by just the appearance alone, nice fluffy white head...then...smells like lemon fruit loops....tastes thin and artificial...the finish is how I believe mold would taste, or rotting lemon rind, the worst wheat beer I’ve ever tasted!!...only thing this beer has going is the fun aroma

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.

Bottled. An unclear orange beer with a thin lazing white head. The aroma is very spicy with notes of cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg as well as strong notes of wheat. The flavor is sweet and very wheaty and very spicy again cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg are present, leading to a dry spicy and wheaty end. The body is thin.

Pour is a almost white chalk like with a fizzy head. Aroma is Country Tyme lemonade. Flavor is super sweet lemonaid with the bitterness and tartness that comes along with it. If you like lemonade on a warn day give it a shot, its just not my thing.

Wow, well it smells like lemonade. Maybe a slightly hopped lemonade. Tastes like a lemonade mixed with a really light beer, of course, that’s what it is. There’s really not much more to add than that. Its 90+ degrees right now and I’ve been cooking outside, this almost hits the spot, but I’m tempted to throw a shot of tequila in it for some reason. Very cloudy white-yellow color, like a wit, but without the foaming head.

Strawberry and cherry aroma. Thick head and cloudy golden pour. Powerfully strong and distinct taste of blueberries, with no other discernible flavors. Weak finish of blueberries. Very unique and enjoyable, but suspect one dimensional flavor for a beer. Uprated for unique character and the fact that I love blueberries. Beer purists will probably not like it.
