Leinenkugel's Cranberry Ginger Shandy Fruit / Vegetable Beer sounds awful.

leinie's gave up on making decent beer and is just a novelty fruit beer vendor for the most part now, right?

More or less yeah.

IDGAF, I will rep for Original forever. Creamy Dark is okay, but I can't stomach Red.

Oh also the names are screwed up because the tabs between beer names and styles got deleted when I posted the list. So it's Big Butt Doppelbock, in the style of a Doppelbock. That doesn't really change the horrible name calculus, though.

Voted for the berry weiss but now I think I should have picked a shandy. Shandy's are terrible.

the Summer Shandy that Leinenkugel makes is godawful. I had that shit a few years ago.

voting for "Orange Shandy Fruit / Vegetable Beer" out of spite for that. though iirc they ALL taste like fruity pebbles and they're all barfy.

xpost nothing worse than buying a sixer of that shit for a party and realizing you hate it three sips in and nobody else wants any

Neanderthal, Thursday, 31 March 2016 02:29 (eight years ago) link

three sips

ayo!

"Canoe Paddler" sounds like a euphemism for masturbator, so I'll go with that.

nice

fwiw those suffixes like "fruit/vegetable beer" are stylistic designators and don't appear on the packaging (because who's going to buy a vegetable beer?) "Adjunct lager" makes that one sound the worst to me - although original Leinie is a better than average lawnmower beer imo.
