12oz. Pours cloudy yellow with a tan head. Nose is really damn leomandy, so hell it fits that description. Taste is sweet and like beer lemonade. Far better than the % would suggest, not great, but not a terrible American interpretation of the style.

Cloudy off-yellow color with a white head. This beer has a very citrusy aroma. The flavor was of few hops and sweet lemonade. The combination was quite refreshing, as the marketing implies. Best served ice cold with an orange.

Bottle. Pours a hazy light yellow with a 2 finger snow white head. The nose is lsweet emonade and wheat. The taste is malt, wheat and light lemonade in the finish. Lighter prickly mouthfeel. I’m glad the taste wasn’t as strong as the aroma. Refreshing lawnmower beer.

Eww, is all I really have to say about this beer. Summer is in the name, refreshing is its game, but a brew with lemonade is lame. In what has to be an ugly step-child to Mike’s Hard Lemonade, this Leinie’s Lodge Summer favorite is far to sweet and lemony fresh to be considered a real beer. Back to the chopping block with this one!

12oz bottle brought back from Nevada by DuffManSW, thanks Sean. Hazy pale yellow with a bright white fluffy head. Aroma is all lemons pretty much, not much else. Flavor is mostly lemonade, not my thing, but I can see how this would work on a nasty humid midwest summer day.

Bottle from Lee’s Discount Liquor in Mesquite, Nevada.. Yet another Leinenkugels beer that I rated before Hophead22, and he’s a freakin cheesehead!! Pours a cloudy yellow with a white head.. Smell is sweet lemonade...Flavor is lemonade but it isn’t as sweet as the smell might lead you to believe...Im kinda getting tired of this after the second bottle.

Cloudy yellow gold with an open white head. Aroma is a noseful of lemondrop candies, nice if you like lemon candy, which I do. Flavor has a lot of lemon aromatics, not much citric tartness. Underneath the lemon, the base beer is lacking: noticeable oxidation going on here, with some lactic bits in the finish. Thin to medium bodied, somewhat flat on the palate.

Smells and looks like a great beer for a hot summer day, with a cloudy yellow color and white head. Smells citrusy. I took my first sip and immediately thought, I know this taste, took me few seconds before it came to me, lysol, it taste like lysol smells. I have never tasted lysol so I can only compare it the smell.
