Leinenkugels Summer Shandy

Brewed by Leinenkugel Brewing Company (MillerCoors)
Style: Fruit Beer
Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin USA

Bottle. Poured cloudy yellow with thick white head. Much lacing. Aroma of lemon and nothing else. Smelled like a lemon cream pie. Sweet lemon flavour. Much like a lemon soft drink. Flat flavour, like old bread. Not worth seeking out. As it warmed the flavour turned metallic. I ended up pouring it out. It looked good, that’s the best I can say for it.

12oz bottle. Pours a cloudy yellow, sickly color with almost no head. light white bubbles. nose is some type of lemon extract. Flavors of lemon extract, sugar...almost taste like drinking straight out of one of the little plastic lemon shaped lemon juice containers. gross.

Probably this is a girl’s drink. Tastes like lemonade and it will get you drunk. I can’t hate on that.

12 oz bottle. Pours a very pale cloudy yellow with a very small white head. It has a very strong lemonade smell. It has a strong lemonade taste and a chemical or cleaner aftertaste that I can’t quit place. It doesn’t taste like beer. I’m embarrassed I bought this but found a store with a pick six different beers in one six pack plan and am trying to sample a lot of beers. This was a horrible beer.

Bottle, This beer poured a cloudy light amber color with almost no head. The Aroma was of lemons with a hint of hops & malt. It tasted refreshing with a pleasurable aftertaste. Good summertime brew.

12 oz bottle. Pours cloudy yellow with white head. I pick up the lemonade aroma the moment I start pouring, and as I get my nose into it, that’s the majority of what’s there; a few grainy notes are back there, but mostly lemon. The flavor is also almost entirely lemonade. The graininess is a little more distinct, but not much. The finish is lemons and carbonation. Refreshing enough, but this is not beer.

On tap, served in a shaker. Hazy golden pour with a thin head of off-white foam that quickly faded away. Hardly any lacing. The aroma was mainly lemons...a hint of sweet malt underneath. It tasted like a light beer spiked with artificial lemon juice. Finished a little dry. Light-bodied with moderate carbonation. A decent drink for a hot day. Not very beery though.

This is almost like a malternative lemonade. Pours lemonade yellow with a fizzy white head. Nose is lemons, and the might be some light malt in there. Tastes like lemonade, too. Not a lot of distinction here. Are they going after the former Zima drinkers?
