I’m sorry, but I’m prejudiced in favor of this beer. In my 30+ years of beer drinking, this is my all time favorite. I believe I can tell a Northwoods just by looking at it. I can’t imagine a better beer!

Living only 10 minutes from Chippewa Falls, I might be biased toward Leinies...But this is just a great beer. So smooth, with such a great taste all the way through. Pour some in a glass in your cabin in the northwoods and let the stories begin. My current favorite.

My favorite beer of all time. I can no longer get it in Kansas, and I miss it. Great caramel color, pleasant aroma, and prefect bitter taste. Fantastic, especially when sampled at the brewery.

Good session beer. one of the best lagers in the world to this beer critic. slight malty, bready aroma with hint of alcohol. excellent golden appearance. can taste hops with rich malt compliment, super clean finish. very impressive. fits its commercial description well.

Great Great Beer. Hoppy, good flavor, solid beer. Leinie Northwoods is a beer I’ve wanted to sample for a very long time. Reminds me allot of the flavor of the original pre-Miller Leinenkugels I used to drink. Sweet, big flavor, good hops, smooth and definitely drinkable. Would cellar this one if Miller would sell it here in Missouri. Slikwily thank you for making this beer available to me.

A fuller bodied beer than the Leine's original. It's good. If you like original Leine's this is even better.

Darker golden color,Small foamy white head.Sweet malty aroma,nicely hopped,slight lemon grass scent in this one as well.Mildly sweet malt taste pretty well hopped.The hops come through very well in the flavorwith a mild bitter bite that is very pleasant.the lemon grass just makes a slight appearance,very faint.This brew leaves a semi sweet hop after taste that fades quickly to a dry finish almost.Very drinkable brew.

In my opinion the best of the Leinies beers. Not a ton of flavor, and the usual metallic bite at the end.
