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.

A light amber. Miller played with this before. If anything there is dextrose NOT rice in this. Light hop nose. A hint of malt that makes you want more. Thirst quenching, but not quite truly satisfying.

Bottle. Dark amber color with a large frothy white head that lasted. Lifgt hoppy citrus aroma. Medium body with a thin texture. Light malty hop flavor with a short light bitter finish.

Pours dark straw, with medium white head. Aroma and taste of malt, some hops, some toffee. Not bad.

Light amber color with a quickly dissapating head. The aroma is bread with some carrots. The taste is light bread and honey. There are some notes of carrots with tomatoes. A strange combination. This could be better with more body and hops. Decent for a light beer, but the slightly acidic aftertaste bugs me.

Picked up a single bottle at the Fiddler’s Inn in downtown Dallas, WI (across street from the Viking Brewery). Pours a clear light amber brew with hardly a head. No lacing no matter hard you try. Aroma is mostly corn malt. Aroma reminds me of the scent in the air while attending the Minnesota State Fair on the second last day. No hops presence in aroma either. Taste almost like Miller High Life with a little extra coloring. Finish is clean, crisp and hardly any aftertaste. At least I can say I tried this before this product is gone for good.

Bottle. Poured a very bright amber/golden with a short-lived white head. Not very much going on in the flavor or aroma... ’cept for funky veggie mash, cardboard, and a hint of floral. Some toffee sweetness came through in the flavor, too. Thin bodied and rather unsatisfying.

This bottled brew poured a large sized head of fine to medium sized white colored mostly lasting bubbles that left behind a poor lacing. The body was a softly carbonated transparent light orange color and the aroma was mildly malted. The mouth feel was smooth mild and had a slight tingle to it. The flavor was malty with a slight "red" note.

Medium copper/amber hue with a nice poofy head. The aroma is of sour grapes, a real turnoff. The flavor is also sour ... and really light, damn near cidery. Me no likey.
