Why wasn't I warned about this?

They mix beer with Sprite or Fanta here, and call it 'Radler' or 'Alster'. So far, I've only seen it done with beers that are very light anyway (like Berliner Kindl), so the result tastes like a watery soft drink the color of Pabst Blue Ribbon.

After unexpectedly ordering a half-liter one of these a couple weeks ago, and not being into it, I've realized that I guess it has a place once in a while. I guess.

  1. my roommate does this - except with lemonade or gingerale. he learned about it in ireland, where it is called a shandy. personally, i prefer my pbr unadulterated, but whatever.
