Leinkugel’s has made a big name for themselves in the shandy market. The beer meets lemonade offering has done very well for the brewery – more than 60% of their sales, despite a full portfolio of other offerings. While shandies are great for hot weather drinking, the brewery has quickly found they sell very well year round. Going off of that, Leinie’s is adding winter shandy offerings. Did you know Wisconsin produces more cranberries than any other state in America? Our hometown pride inspired us to brew Leinenkugel Cranberry Ginger Shandy. The combination of wheat beer, cranberry and ginger is as refreshing as a toboggan ride Out Here.

This is a fruity wheat, with some heat. The ginger gives it some spice while the cranberries add some sweet and tartness. Flavor kind of reminds me of a wine cooler in some ways. Sort of like a poor man's sour. Has a hazy medium yellow appearance. Finally cured my curiosity here.

Pours a semi clear light amber with a 2 ginger white head that stay aloft for a while. Aroma is identical to to New Glarus Serendipity but without the sourness. Lots of carbonation. Taste is a tad watered down but you can taste the cranberries and ginger. Slightly dry. Not bad.

As Shandys go, Leinenkugel has mastered the style. This one a murky tallow-orange in color with a well developed frothy textured white head rising above. There's good hang time on the head. It settles into a thick film, ringlet and cap. Cranberries dominate the nose. And they blend so well with the ginger in a wheat base. Light, clean, crisp.
