Leinenkugels Honey Weiss Bier

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

Bottle from my friend Matt poured into shaker - Pours gold with an uneven 1 finger white head quickly diminishes; Wheat, perhaps a hint of something malty to the nose; An attempt at honey on the initial taste but not much else; Sweet fading into bready, backtaste; Lots of carbonation to be seen but not too much when drank; A mildly pleasant brew. Doesn’t live up to the ridiculous hype I’ve heard about it. It’s acceptable, but there are may better american wheats out there.

12oz bottle courtesy of Monger. Thanks, James! Clear golden-yellow appearance; white head with attractive lacing. Aroma is vinuous, almost like a light Sauternes (I feel ridiculous saying this about a 2.5 beer... but it’s true), showing honey and minerals. Light-to-medium mouthfeel, showing wheat and honey (surprise!) and not much else to speak of. A very drinkable wheat beer.

Draught. Clear golden color with bubbly white head that dissipated quickly. Aroma is stale cereal grain. Flavor is similarly uninspiring. I didn’t detect any honey, there was no yeast, and the mouth feel was very watery. Not a well done beer.

not as sweet as I expected. watery. carbonated too much. drinkable. NOT bad.

Cardboardy, clear with white minimal head on tap. No wheat, no yeast, no honey in the flavor or aroma. Kind of like a tasty budweiser, if you can imagine that. Waste of $4.00

On tap. Light golden body. Refreshing German style lager, no wheat and no honey (had to confirm with my waitress that I really had been served what I asked for). Quite dry, crispy and bitter aftertaste. OK, but not to interesting. Definitively not my type of beer.

Botle. The aroma is not reminiscent of a wheat, and the appearence is clear rather than clody as one would expect from something labeled a "wheat" beer. Nevertheless, it is a smooth beer with enough of a flavor to make for a passable beverage.

A cheap wheat beer aroma that tapers off with a mild sweetness. The high carbonation is a poor substitute for flavor and palate that are lacking. My sinuses tend to act up after I drink this beer, a good indication that it is adulterated. There is little more to say.
