Jacob Leinenkugel Brewing Company

Leinenkugel's Berry Weiss
Fruit Beer - 4.7% ABV
Pete
     This beer is more like a soda than a beer. That being said, I love blackberry, so this is great. Drink a few, but don't expect to have a bunch of them.

Leinenkugel's Big Butt Doppelbock
Doppelbock - 5.8% ABV
Pete
     I wanted to love this, I really did. I mean, the name is great. Sadly, this is a pretty typical Leinenkugel's non-fruity beer. It just isn't very good. This tastes like a winter beer, and not a particularly good one.

Leinenkugel's Canoe Paddler
Kölsch - 5% ABV
Pete
     Very plain. Good for drinking outside whilst playing lawn games (as I was). It'd probably have a lower rating if I didn't have it in this situation.

Leinenkugel's Cranberry Ginger Shandy
Shandy - 4.2% ABV
Pete
     I'm a sucker for fruity beers, and Leinenkugel's is the best at it. This one is a nice balance of sweet and tart. Hell, call this a sour, and you might even get beer snobs on board. Super easy to drink.

Leinenkugel's Fireside Nut Brown
Dark Lager - 4.9% ABV
Pete
     This is called Nut Brown, so I put it in the brown ale category, even though it is technically a dark lager. It also tastes more like a porter than a brown ale, which surprised me big time, but it sure as hell wasn't a bad surprise. Great beer.

Leinenkugel's Grapefruit Shandy
Shandy - 4.2% ABV
Pete
     This tastes like sweetened grapefruit juice. There just isn't enough carbonation for this to really be any good.

Leinenkugel's Honey Weiss
Fruit/Wheat Beer - 4.9% ABV
Pete
     I was not very happy with this beer. It needs something more.

Leinenkugel's Lemon Berry Shandy
Shandy - 4.2% ABV
Pete
     I was in the mood for something fruity, so I threw one of these in a build your own 6-pack. It more than did the trick. Delicious.

Leinenkugel's Oktoberfest
Amber Ale - 5.1% ABV
Pete
     Stick to fruity beers, Leinenkugel's.

Leinenkugel's Orange Shandy
Shandy - 4.2% ABV
Pete
     Super orange-y and highly carbonated. Very much like orange soda. I approve.

Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy
Shandy - 4.2% ABV
Pete
     This beer isn't bad, but it doesn't have enough flavor or alcohol for my tastes.

Rate Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat
Fruit Beer - 4.9% ABV
Pete
     This is a glorious beer. It tastes exactly like yellow Fruit Loops, so it brings you back to your childhood. Delicious.
