Leinenkugels Sunset Wheat

Brewed by Leinenkugel Brewing Company (MillerCoors)
Style: Wheat Ale
Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin USA

This cloudy golden ale poured with a decent off-white head and a lemon aroma. There is a very unique flavor consisting of wheat, lemon, coriander and a hoppy finish. Very refreshing and tasty.

Pours a light orange color with a small head. Aroma of orange peel, lemon, and some spices. Taste of orange, wheat, and coriander. Light but very refreshing.

Bottle sampled with with Beerded_one. Pours hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma of orange candy. The flavor is like tang, some caarbonation, light, sweet. Thin body. Not bad.

Addendum--on tap @ the Miller Brewery in Milwaukee. It smells and tastes exactly like Fruity Pebbles. I would like Fruity Pebbles for my breakfast tomorrow now. 12oz bottle, no date. Pours a cloudy dark straw with a moderate white head. Aroma of ripe oranges--almost too sweet. Tastes of ripe oranges and artificial orange flavor and then fades into a wheaty finish. Thin body, moderate carbonation. I find this beer to be in between a Blue Moon (which everyone hates) and an American Wheat (which is usually a nondescript "mah" beer). Most people I?ve talked to think this is great. Also, most people I talk to aren?t like most ratebeerians. Not too badat all.

Pours a hazy golden with foamy white head and emitting a grassy, spicy nose. Flavors of wheat. citrus. coriander, and only a hint of yeastiness that I look for in the style. Just OK Big robust breeze of thanks released in your direction Mr. dm9831...

Pours a beautiful and cloudy light peach-gold, with a medium head that lasts better than any. Aroma is great pine resin-peach spice. Oh, man can’t wait to taste this one! The flavor is insecure lady’s cologne bath! Bleaahh!! Huge disappointment, way too much coriander or fruit syrup or orange peel or something! This is why I typically hate American wheat beer - it always has to try to be too much of something - either citrus-tart, overly fruity, sweet and now perfume! If this was in the fruit beer category I might give it another point or two.

Bottled. Miller’s answer to Blue Moon, I suppose. Pours cloudy, a surprise in itself. A sure enough big wheaty head with some lacing, that sticks around to the end. I get an Orange Shasta smell, and since I like the smell of orange pop, I call that okay. Some of the wit-type coriander does come up, too. Taste matches the smell pretty well. A rather nice, orangey glow that by rights should put this into a fruit beer category. Any spice and hops just blend well into the overall impression. Another very serviceable lawnmower beer.

What the heck was this? I hate to use what someone already said but I was thinking the same thing when I first tasted it...fruity pebbles. The aroma and taste were like fruity roses. Imagine a container filled with water, Fruity Pebbles and roses left out in the sun. Too floral for me. I felt like a girl.
