Take on the Shandy

Germans have been an integral part of innovation for most of their
existence. They're work with car engines, aerospace and modern
warfare is legendary. They are also a country which offers excellent
choices in beer, especially within Bavaria, so you could imagine my
surprise when I was introduced to something called the Spreer this
week. Apparently, this conception has already made it over the pond
although guess the first time I'd ever heard of if and I wish I never
had. For some reason they cannot seem to be able to explain, they
have decided to create a new drink my mixing perfectly good beer with
a sprite. Now, not only is a Sprite kind if disgusting by itself but
mixing it into a beer somehow makes if ever worse. It's supposed to
be a drink enjoyed outside during the summer to keep the alcohol
content down but we somebody should notify these wieners that we
American's have a perfectly good option for this already with the
invention of the BudLite. Think Zima but somehow less good, the
Spreer taste like a kid stood in front of a soda dispenser and mixed a
little of each soda together in their BurgerKing cup and is about as
mature.
Supposedly they'll also offer a version where they mix Coke with beer
and in find German tradition they called it the worst of all the
racial epitaphs.
