Description
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.

Pours hazy amber with a thick head. Strong grapefruit aroma. Taste of witbier and grapefruit. Plate is similar to the taste, more diverse citrus elements. Very light and drinkable.

Pours hazy amber. Thick white head. Nothing remarkable in terms of taste or palate. Mild lemon flavor and elements of a wheat beer.

Some lime and malt. Not a lot beyond that, but I guess that's what you want in a Shandy. Bottle.

12 oz can. Poured a kind of reddish, yellow color? Aroma was kind of fake watermellon. This is really like drinking fruit juice - watermelon. Juicy, but kind of like artifical watermelon juice.

From a 12 oz can. Poured a hazy yellow/muted yellow color with a small white head. Aroma was grapefruit, kind of like Fresca. Flavor was similar, citrus, grapefruit. Fine, but not as refreshing as I'd had hoped for a shandy.

12oz can. Poured a kind of hazy orangeish color with not much of a head at all. Fizzy. Aroma was orange, kind of orange soda. Flavor was orange. Not much else to say. It's okay - but not very beer like. Fine on a 90 degree day if you're not looking for something too filling, I guess.
