Leinenkugel – Summer Shandy

Posted By John on June 19th, 2009

Beer: Summer Shandy

Brewery: Leinenkugel Brewing

ABV: 4.2%

Reviewed: 17-Jun-09 on Episode 145

Appearance: Disturbingly bright yellow in color with a bleach white head.

Aroma: Lemony fresh which is slightly disturbing.

Taste: The lemon and malt flavors balance out well. This surprised the hellout of us as the lemon flavor was so dominant in the aroma.

Mouthfeel: light body with medium carbonation. Kinda like carbonated lemonade.

Aftertaste: Clean finish with no crazy lingering flavors.

Overall: There is a majority of our panel that feel shandies are an abomination before the beer gods. That said, this was the best shandy we’ve had and even though it won’t be a regular in our glass it was a well made beerish drink. Thanks to Brian M. for bringing the beer.

Best enjoyed at: an outdoor wrestling match.

John:     C Brian:    C Ryan:      B Overall

Pretty Good
