In 155 Years of Brewing, This is Leinenkugel’s First Session Sour-Style Beer on the Market
Leinenkugel’s is releasing their first-ever session-sour style beer — Leinenkugel’s Juicy Peach.
What is a session-sour style beer, you ask? Well, it is usually defined by its refreshment and drinkability. The goal is to reach a balance between the character and the lower ABV. This new brew balances the sweetness from natural peach juice with subtle tart notes and has an ABV of 4.4% — below the 5% benchmark. In 155 years of brewing, this is Leinenkugel’s first session sour-style beer on the market.
Perfect for pairing with a charcuterie board or spicy food, Juicy Peach is a light body beer with a crisp, tingly texture. You’ll get ripe juicy peach flavor upfront followed by a subtle tartness, finishing with lingering notes of peach. The beer uses Cluster Hops, Moravian Two Row Barley, Red Wheat and Caramel Malt and is brewed in Chippewa Falls and Milwaukee, WI.
“Leinenkugel’s is known for brewing different and exciting styles of beers. It’s what we do best and our drinkers expect it. Juicy Peach is our latest example of that. It’s our refreshing take on the popular tart session-sour style and we’re thrilled to offer it right now,” said Tony Bugher, 6th generation Leinenkugel and part of the brand’s marketing team.
Leinenkugel’s Juicy Peach is available year-round throughout the Great Lakes region in 6-pack and 12-pack 12oz cans and draft.
