Destroy the Leinenkugel Brewery Now!

[Popeye_Card]

I will say though that Leine's Berry beer tastes like grape soda. Not good.

The only thing I ask is that you don't put fruit into my beer after it is poured. If it's supposed to have fruit in it, put it in during the brewing process. If it's supposed to have citrus notes to the flavor profile, then let the beer do the talking. Do not fruit my gd beer. Thank you.

The Hungarian is taking a beating here.

I have tried Sam Adams Cherry Wheat and consumed plenty of citrus-like Belgian whites. They don't come close to violating the laws of brewing integrity in the way that Leinenkugel has with this Berry Stout. If you were to sample this particular beer, you would share my sense of outrage.

Just to clarify a few things....

1. I'm not trying to defend the Berry beer. It definitely sucks.

2. Psst... it's actually "Berry Weiss".

I am trying to block the taste of that thing from my memory.

I know you're talking about lemons and oranges and whatnot, but have you ever had a Berliner Weisse?



And they use a straw - a straw! - to drink it.

I think some fancy beer people just fainted.

That one on the right reminds me of Campari. Yum.

Oh, I have had many. Note that there is no fruit in the beer. There is a fruit syrup added. That is different.

It's also lovely without the syrup.

Fruity beers suck.

Amen! Anytime hubby and I order weiss beer, we always specify NO FRUIT. They don't add fruit in Germany....I don't know who started this trend. Blech.
