Shandy
Overview
A shandy is a cocktail made from a mixture of beer or ale and lemonade to taste.
A variant on this is the lager top in which a small measure of lemonade is added to a pint or half-pint of lager. In some areas, tomato juice is mixed with beer as a cocktail.
In Bavaria a mix of helles Bier (pale ale) and lemonade is called a Radler (a Radler is also a person that drives a bicycle), as opposed to a mix of Weißbier (wheat beer) and lemonade is called a Russ.
In northern germany a shandy is referenced as Alsterwasser.
