Leinenkugels Red

Brewed by Leinenkugel Brewing Company (MillerCoors)
Style: American Dark Lager
Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin USA

Aroma is very typical but slightly metallic. Color is a very clear, probably filtered amber, and there’s a bit of lacing. A bit watery and a weak palate. Flavor starts out very typical but decent, and just dies too soon without much of a finish. This kind of beer would be appropriate for a beginner who is just beginning to wean off of weak corporate beer and still needs something a bit watery. I’m still not in the 100 beer club and yet I never went through this phase myself. This beer is typical of when big corporations (Miller in this case) create pseudo-local brews. Charming, but not believeable except to the vast majority of drinkers who don’t know any better.

One of the better readily available brewhas, but still too watery to really seperate it from cheaper brands

Not impressive. Drinkable, non-shitty, but not worth getting. Too bitter, alcoholic, and far too light on the palate.

For the price this is fairly good, nice malty taste with balanced hops, nice deep amber color

12oz bottle. Poured an amber color with a thin white head. Some lacing. Aroma was sweet with a hint of citrus. Flavor was of sweet carmel malt and nuts. Not overly complex. Palate was thin, crisp, and clean.

Bottle. Poured a copper reddish color. Aroma of malt. Taste is not that great.

I got started on Leinie’s Red. When I was first starting to drink beer (17 or 18, I drank rum before that) This is all I would drink, Definatly a good starter beer. Eventually I took of the training wheels. I should go and pick up a sixer of this one for nostalgia.

A present from a friend who received it with his beer of the month club, he was jazzed it was a beer from Wisconsin...s drink we did, and well, eh... Easy to drink Red copper color, I don’t know if I would go out of my way to find it, but alas, free to me beer is beer indeed. Really, cause yeah, it’s interesting enough, but doesn’t wow me.
