About the Brewery
In 1867, Jacob Leinenkugel and John Miller founded the Leinenkugel Brewing Company in Cippewa Falls, Wisconsin. In 1884, John sold his share of the company to Jacob. Jacob would pass away in 1899, but the brewery remained family owned after this death. When Prohibition was passed, the brewery would survive by making ‘near beer’ and bottling soda water to survive. The Leinenkugel would eventually sell the brewery to Miller Brewing in 1988. Even though the family doesn’t own the brewery, they still put in hard work and are continued spokesmen for their brand!

Beer Reviews:
Tobin’s Review 4 out of 5
Leinenkugel’s Oktoberfest has a nice light red brown hue with a small compact wheat head. The beer has a very light malt aroma with caramel malt flavors that linger throughout the drinking experience. This is a taste beer with a perfect body.

Leinenkugel’s Summer Shandy is a crazy looking beer, as it looks like a murky hefeweizen. The beer has a very citrusy nose, and almost smells like it should be a fruit juice. The flavors are very soft, and loosely tastes like a green Gatorade with a lemon kick at the end.

MGD has a light pale gold hue with a small frothy white head that dissipates quickly. The beer has a sweet malt aroma with a malt mouth and a tinge of hops that ends dry, but still maintains its sweet malt taste.

Hamm’s has a light straw hue with a nice white compact head. The beer has malty aromas with flavors of malt and grain on the mouth. The beer finishes with a hint of bitterness on the post palate. Overall it’s a pretty good sweet malty beer.
