On tap at On Tap Pub. The beer is a hazy light amber/orange color with a thin off-white head. Minimal lacing throughout. The aroma is akin to Fruity Pebbles. Light-bodied and smooth with sweet fruit and spice flavors, along with a bit of wheat. The finish is sweet with a mild clove aftertaste. Not as sugary sweet as the aroma would lead you to believe but still just an average beer.

Pour is a deep dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is nothing special as some malts make there way to the top. Flavor is much the same. Very carbonated and some malts. No where near the style. Pretty poor effort.

Pours golden with a thick/foamy white head. You can make out the honey sweetness in the aroma, but it’s not as powerful as I expected. Corn is also present in the aroma. The aroma is closer to a Miller Lite than any wheat beer I’ve ever had. It tastes like it smells, which is dissapointing to say the least. Slightly sweet, but I don’t know if I’d call it honey. And just like the aroma it tastes more like a Miller Lite than a wheat. Nope, not going here again.

Pours a hazy golden color with a white head. Has a pretty strong aroma of oranges, coriander, wheat and lemons. The aroma is very refreshing. The flavor is pretty classic wheat with the oranges and lemon thrown in for good fun. Sitting in the back is the coriander. Finishes acidic and lemony. The mouth is nicely carbonated. this was a suprisingly good beer. Not generally a fan of wheat beers, this is great find.

12 oz brown bottle with a twist off cap. Leinie has some interesting beers! One of the first brews I rated was creamy dark. Pop the cap on this beer to reveal a slightly yeasty beery aroma, smells clean! The color of this beer is orange, orangish red (3300). Has a creamy alabaster yellow head that hangs for awhile. Nicely done attractive pour, with gentle lacing, in my steeler stein. Initially there is some personality in the first taste, a little hoppy bite. Interesting taste for a lager, I’m used to mild well behaved flavors. Somewhat like a pale ale. Finish is also like a mild IPA, bitter and lingers for a moment or two. Yes, overall quite ale-ish. Medium grapefruit peel astringent finish. For an American dark lager, not as good as Shiner Bock or George Killiams. One of the lesser liked ADLs I’ve tasted, but still good.

Tap at Cheeseburger in Paradise (Island Ale). Clear amber pour, not much head at all. Taste was pretty straightforward, not much going on. I would have preferred with food, because this had a bit of an edge to it without something to clean the palate.

Clear light straw body, thick off-white head. Aroma of a tart apple jolly rancher, suggesting beer is not the priority here. Strong apple flavor, with definite cinnamon notes on the finish, but preserving a solid natural fruit palate. And, what credit does a beer deserve for making ample use of fresh apples but little use of hops and malt? Tough questions for tough times.

Also available in december. 12 oz twist off brown bottle. Once open smells like sweet berries. Has a berry orange red color when it pours with a cloudy hue. Of the three fruit beers I’ve tasted tonight; harbor blueberry, oxford raspberry and this, it is the best by far. Sweet but not sickening sweet, however it does seem like the honey and berry flavors were added after brewing. Comes across something like a wine cooler or cheap champagne. Finish lingers sweet. Not as good as lancaster strawberry wheat.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a cloudy yellow color with a small white head that fades quickly. The aroma is strong, sweet and fruity - lemon and orange. The flavor is strong, tart, and has a tangy artificial grape and orange flavor that is pretty pleasant. The finish is a bit dry and grainy. Nice.
