Oct 21, 2005 For some reason, this was called Leinenkugels "Pilsener" on the draft board at County Grill. I scanned the other "popular" Leinenkugels beers and this was the only one I could think it was. Draft. Reddish amber bodied with a small off-white head. Nose is slightly hoppy with caramel and sweet malts and light fruit aromas. Taste is mild hop/citrus with caramel, sweet malts and dried fruits. Not very complex but drinkable and complimentary to the food. Body is light-medium with mild carbonation feel. Finishes with a diminishing hop profile and a drier maltiness. Some light caramel still comes through here as do more dried fruit notes. Maybe a hint of bread as well. Not bad!

Oct 11, 2005 Bottle: What can I say? Pretty basic. Very popular in Minnesota and Wisconsin because it is available. Anyway, mainly a malty beverage with faint echoes of wheat and barley. Thin and watery. Overall, the beer is soapy and I am not really into that sort of thing.

Oct 3, 2005 Bottle (12oz). Courtesy of my friend Alan G. Poured slightly hazy copper with a good-sized straw-coloured fizzy-foamy lasting head. Aroma’s a little funky - there’s roast malt and hops, but it’s a bit vegetal. Taste is quite pleasant - caramel roast malt, some mild resiny notes, detectable hops - bit like a woody vienna lager. Moutfeel is pretty average, a touch acidic perhaps, decent body for a lager. Other than the funky aroma, pretty solid darker lager.

Oct 3, 2005 The aroma is slightly fruity and the color is reddish/oarnge. The head is tan. Red is crisp and clean with a nice bitterness.

Sep 24, 2005 This beer has a nice color with a nice head. But the head fades, not quickly, but not slow either. The beer has a nice malt, hops, and some fruit flavor. The aroma is strong with a lot of fruit. A nice beer for people who don’t usually drink reds, or darks.

Sep 20, 2005 Pour is a nice orange with a nice white head. Aroma is malty with notes of grass. Flavor is a nice deep malt with lots of roasted nut. Very pleasing everyday brew. Extra points for being available almost every where and always easy on the wallet.

Sep 17, 2005 Orange amber pour, with a creamy head. Dusty malt aroma. Tangy rushed malt flavor, a hint of caramel and nuts. Finishes slightly dry.

Sep 8, 2005 This is a nice brew. Reminiscent of Killian’s Irish Red--maybe just because it was on my mind, because of the similar names. This is a pretty decent, more standard lager. It’s been a while since I’ve had a sweet lager like this one. It is very similar to some marzens, while it does not have as complex a palate.
