Beer-a-Day #159

Our signature all-malt lager is a celebration of genuine ingredients, time-honored brewing traditions and authentic craft beer flavor. With its brilliant amber color, premium blend of Pale, Caramel and Munich malts, and subtle, yet complex citric hoppiness, you simply can’t go wrong with a Classic.

Well Ron liked this, his wife less so. Ron and I have similar tastes, but I haven’t been all that impressed with most of the Leinie’s I’ve had. Still, I’ll keep an open mind.

Clear amber with plenty of off-white head. The aroma reminds me of lemongrass. The flavor has a bit of nuttiness to it, but rather light.

I’m going to have to agree with Ron’s wife on this one. I’d drink it again, but I wouldn’t seek it out.
