jbuzz (566), South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Oct 15, 2008 Leinenkugels "not so" Special Ale. I had this under a couple diffent names. caramel and citrus ..medium carbonation rman18 (178), South Amboy, New Jersey, USA Sep 14, 2008 This beer is just OK. It is a dark amber with no head. I had it at a Cheeseburger in Paradise in Jersey. There is virtually no palate and OK malty flavor. Nothing Special doubelknv3 (507), Illinois, USA Aug 8, 2008 Draft at the Yacht Club. Amber with frothy white head. Citrus and caramel aroma notes. Caramel, citrus, and metallic flavour notes. Fairly balanced. Skyview (3060), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA Aug 3, 2008 On draught at various locations (ie: Grandmas in downtown Minneapolis, Applebees at various locations, Curly’s Pub at Lambeau Field Atrium, Bubs Brewing Co in Winona, MN, etc) pours a clear golden amber brew with a thin and fast dissolving off-white head. Aroma of golden grain malt and caramel malts with a touch of citrus and grassy hops. Taste is medium bodied with some carbonation with flavors of caramel, toffee, some citrus zest and a touch of light fruit. Finish has a slight gritty texture with a mild aftertaste if caramel and citrus zest. mmmbeer (603), Austin, Texas, USA Jul 22, 2008 (Sampled 7-9-08 at Cheeseburger in Paradise in K-zoo, MI under the guise of House Ale) 16 oz. draught in shaker- dark red/amber in color, very light carbonation, 3mm off white head when delivered. Aroma of some hops and nuts- weak overall. Hits the mouth with a high-thin body, malt is rather pale (young?), some cream in the middle, ever so slight hop finish that is kind of uneven. Better than drinking Bells I guess...
