WTB Raddler 700c TCS Gravel Tire

Product Information

It was an excellent solution that included providing enough beverage to customers and getting rid of lemonade nobody wanted to buy. Later, it shortened the drink’s name to Radler, meaning ‘cyclist’ in German.

Add your chosen citrus fruit soda and resist the temptation to stir! (There’s a slight possibility of froth overload.) It is assumed that commercially prepared Radler contains 2 to 4.5 % ABV while commercial Shandie is stronger with 4.2 to 4.5% ABV on average. However, brewers tend to make stringer beverages, so you can find Radlers with higher ABV than most classical beers contain. Radler History

Made with a mix of beer and lemonade, Radler is the German equivalent of the British shandy. Enterprising innkeeper, Franz Kugler, invented the "radlermass," or cyclist's litre, in 1922 after he had a bike trail built from Munich to his forested inn. On the first day the trail opened, he had more thirsty cyclists than beer, so he mixed it with lemonade. Its low alcohol (between 2-4% ABV) makes it an ideal after-sport thirst quencher. At last, this beer-and-juice combination has hit the North American radar, with many craft brewers creating their own unique versions with lager or wheat-beer bases. In some jurisdictions, the low alcohol content of shandies exempts them from laws governing the sale of alcoholic beverages. Stiegl Brewing produces an excellent mix of Stiegl-Goldbräu and natural grapefruit juice without artificial sweeteners. This cloudy beverage with 2% ABV is highly refreshing, making it a desired option for hot summer days. 4. Totally Radler A radler lightens up a beer. Since radlers are essentially ‘lagers cut by lemonade,’ they typically only hit around 4.0% ABV or under. Generally speaking, heading to the pub in European drinking culture means you’re in for a long night of pints. But getting publicly blotto is considered a party foul. Since there are only so many beers you can drink at 6.0% ABV, the radler is a perfect alternative.

So, yup. Basically, a German Radler is just simply Beer and Sprite! Simple enough, right? Well…maybe….. What Beer To Use For a Radler?To make a German beer lemonade fill a glass about half way with ice cold sparkling lemonade, then top with ice cold German lager (Munich Helles or Pilsner).
