Commercial Description:
Leine's Amber Light is a new kind of light beer - a light beer with color and flavor. Brewed with 2-Row Pale brewer's malt, Munich and Carmel malt for a lightly flavored body. These barley malts also give Leine's Amber Light its beautiful amber color. A light hopping with Cascade and Cluster hops provides a well-balanced, smooth, light flavor and drinkable finish.

Compared to other light beers, this Amber is one of the best. Pours with a light red color, and goes down smooth with a nice light taste.

This was a nice alternative to other light beers, and I’d put it in competition with Sam Adams Light or Amstel Light. Great color, but (not surprisingly) a watery taste. If only it tasted as good as it looked and smelled...

12 oz. bottle courtesy of Bockyhorsey - Bottled dated from last year. Pours an amber color with a 1/2 finger thick off white head that faded pretty quick. Has a light grain and herbal hop aroma. Has a slight tart lemony flavor. Light body. Not bad. Would have liked to have tried it fresh. Thanks Bill and Wendy.

Bottle. Clear, pale amber with a small white head. Aroma of grain and malt sugar. Mild flavor of corn and other grains. Not much else here. Heavily carbonated with a sour, grainy aftertaste. It’s not a drain pour, it’s just not real spectacular.
