Be afraid, be very afraid! I would imagine that many Germans are utterly appalled by this!
Interesting purchase; $0.99 for this bottle, and $0.99 for the lemon and the orange versions, BUT I purchased all three along with a Stone RIS! I was wondering if the purchase would be noticed at the register of Duluth Fine Wines and Beer (I had my doubts), BUT it was! Comments on the “interesting” nature of the combo were encouraging; somebody noticed!
Amber body that could pass for a brown ale from a distance.
Of the three (the orange the lemon and the cola) this is the one that is closest to actually being “beer-like”, but to be honest this is still an abomination.
The head on this is the best of the three but there is still no lace. The head leads to a slightly less soda-like mouthfeel and the taste of cola is less aggressive than the orange and the lemon versions.
Still very shandy/lemon/Radler like, and is again reminiscent of my days as a kid supping on half-pints of shandy that my dad would buy for me. In that respect I may even drink this again (if it was $0.99 for the bottle or free) since it has a nostalgic edge for me. For those of you who would not get that feeling it’s best to avoid this!
Again, not really beer at all and the biggest shame for me about this series is that it gives the low ABV beer a bad name.
