Kellerweis Shandy

…or a German might call this a Radler

This Kellerweis has gorgeously delicate bubbles and its perfect to mix with a little bitter lemon soda.  The proportions for a Shandy/Radler range from 50:50 to 60:40.  Do… as you like it.

Happy Oktoberfest!

The Radler
makes 2

German bitter lemon soda or limonade
(Schweppes Bitter Lemon, or Canada Dry will do in a pinch)
1 Sierra Nevada Kellerweis (or 1 Weißbier … or 1Pilsner)

Roughly fill 2 footed pilsner beer glasses (What’s that?  You say don’t have a bar stocked with every style of serving glass?  Neither do I… I used soda glasses with rounded bottoms this time.  And, guess what?  It tastes equally delicious.) to the half way point with bitter lemon soda.  Top each glass with half of the Sierra Nevada Kellerweis.  Serve immediately.  Garnish with a lemon twist at your own risk.

Cheers!
