Weis beer is very light and is usually served during the Summer months to counteract the hot weather (which in Germany is around 78 degrees F). :)

Often with a dallop of rasberry syrup.

I actually like Leinenkugels. Although I prefer the creamy dark. It works out well since that stuff is perpetually on sale at the local supermarket.

Try Paulaner Hefeweizen instead with a slice of lemon. Much better beer than Leiney.

It's "White" because it is unfiltered and there are particles floating in it.
As said, they are generally "summer" beers.

Leinie's isn't bad, but I wouldn't really consider HoneyWeiss a white beer, or Berry Weiss, for that matter. If you want to try a white beer, go for Blue Moon, or Hoegaarden...
