Leinenkugels Honey Weiss Bier

Brewed by Leinenkugel Brewing Company (MillerCoors)
Style: Wheat Ale
Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin USA

Its not that I didn’t like the beer. I actually don’t mind it. I just wasn’t at all impressed by it. I enjoy most Leinies but this one definately wasn’t anything to remember

Gold pour with a nice white head. Hints of lemon and I guess honey. Flavor is lemon extract with a touch of honey. A little sweet, body is light. Finish is clean.

Pours golden clear with a fleeting dense white head with moderate lacing. Weak citrus aroma. Lemon and weak honey flavor. Refreshing but lacks the spiciness of other wheat beers.

From tap. Poured pale yellow slight hazy and no head, someone had thrown a piece of lemon in it. I cannot get my head around why, I tried to pull it out straight away but the beer tasted of lemon afterwards anyway. No real aroma, slight sweet and corn. Honey? Not in my flavour, almost no flavour but the lemon and a bit of wheat notes, rather watery. Not bad as such, but no way good either.

this is actually a good beer for the style. Its clean and crisp with no aftertaste. Very refreshing for a summertime drink. This style just offers no taste.

12oz Bottle pours out a dark yellow topped with almost mo head. Wheat and sweetness on the aroma. not very good to me.

From a 12 oz. twist-off bottle, a freshness date on the neck, sampled at cellar temperature in a pint glass. Poured a clear yellowish golden with a foamy white head that dissipates into a thin sudsy lacing. A light nose, aromas of honey and a grainy wheat maltiness. Active, tiny bubbly carbonation and a crisp, dry, smooth light bodied mouthfeel. Nice, light summertime taste, a clean, crisp wheat maltiness, a subtle refined sweet honey, a soft, brisk hop bitterness towards the end, and a dry, clean wheaty finish. Refreshing and easy drinking pale wheat ale, quite pleasant on a hot, humid summer day.

Single bottle from Total Wine. Bottle says wheat beer, and I’m not sure what the fascination is with wheat beers, but this one was slightly above average compared to others I have tasted. The honey taste is minimal as is the aroma, but this wasn’t as exciting as it could have been. Not bad, but not great.
