Draft - I remember when Leinenkugel made an outstanding Wheat Beer(1997). This beer is gross. I don’t want to drink a beer that tastes like stripper perfume smells.

Hazy orange taste with obvious coriander and maybe a touch of peach and ginger abounding. It started off quite nice but ended on a rather mediocre note. There is nothing unpleasant here though. Easy session beer.

Interesting beer. Cloudy. Aroma like "Fruity Pebbles". While I thought this can’t be good I was actually pleasantly suprised. Sweet finish.

"Leiny’s" my buddy from Milwaukee calls it! Great label. Modest frothy head. Pleasant scent of malt, florals, a touch of herbs. A lively wheat beer - dry and fruity, tartness and tingle, and some cherry cough syrup in the finish. The girls will probably like this fun (but kind of strange) brew.

My roommate brought a case of these home, so I had to steal one. Sweet and citrusy smell. Taste very similair to the auroma. Doubt I could drink a lot of thse because of the taste, but one is good.

Draft at the ballpark. A bit of a hazy, murky brew. This beer is true to style in look, aroma, and flavor. The aroma is a bit fruity (orange/lemon), a bit spicy, and a bit sweet. The flavor following the same lines has notes of bittersweet citrus, spicy notes, cereal grains, and a touch of sweetness (honey). All in all a nice summer beer.

7/12/08 on draught at the Whistle Stop Alehouse, Renton, Wa. Aroma is citrusy, with berry notes and a light sourness. Pours a hazy yellow orange wth a medium maintained white head. Flavor is very orange citrusy with a sweet starchiness and low bittering. The mouthfeel has a spritzy biting carb texture with medium body. Overall, it’s fairly refreshing, but the orange citrus is too strong to have more than one.
