I enjoyed this beer from the comfort of my own living room. From the 12oz bottle to a standard pint glass.
Appearance: Pours a nice dark auburn color with a 1/2 inch tan head that disappears quickly.
Smell: Nutty and malty.
Taste: Just as the smell suggests, nutty, malty, and a hint of chocolate and a little sweet.
Mouthfeel: Pretty carbonated, thin-bodied and silky smooth.
Drinkability: Not the most drinkable Leinie's product, but like most of their stuff, this is on the sweet side. Wouldn't turn it down if offered to me.

Another of the many Leinenkugel's beers tasted from 2008-2010. Well, it ain’t bad, but it ain’t exactly memorable either. Bit spicy. Aftertaste could be better. 2010/02/08
