Probably as important as weed day. Go celebrate.

I had a few of these yesterday (I added the gin shots, though):



If you haven't had radlers, they are half beer, half grapefruit juice. They're totally delicious but very low in alcohol (which is why I added the pony shots of gin).

I do have radlers sometimes, usually in Summer.



Here in Bavaria a radler is half beer half sparkling lemon lemonade. I do prefer the east european version which uses sparkling orange lemonade (note: never have a radler with orange lemonade in Bavaria. They will hang you). Sometimes I'll have one with coca cola which is called Schlußlichtmaas ("Your final beer"). It also includes a shot of cherry schnapps.

Here in Germany only teens and hipsters drink beer with any kind of non-sparkling fruit juice (note: never drink that in Bavaria or else, see above).

So as I hear tell, half beer, half lemonade is a "shandy" (outside of Germany, at least.) But maybe the sparkling part means it can be called a radler. (Of course, you can call it whatever you like!)

I did't know they call it shandy outside of Germany. Here in Germany a radler has always been beer & sparkling lemonade.

Beefeater!  One of my go-to gins.  But hell, I usually have Gilbeys in the house... so my standards are not high.  Once you've developed a taste for gin, it can get the better of you.  TeddyR

In South Africa too, Claws: a shandy is the only alcohol I'll drink.  Drink

Prost!  Cheers Drink

Beer is very filling. German beer, drinking a pint of that, is just gonna fill my belly real quick.
Any beer will.
I think the problem is I'm short- and my small gut will not hold it.
I never puke on whiskey. Beer, any clear booze- like vodka, gin, tequila (ah!), home made wine- I may vomit.  So I just drink whiskey. I tried wine for a while...ok. I drank beer back in the early 80's.

Mostly I just drink whiskey.

I like beer.  I like wine.  I may try some Black Label tonight (I have an opened bottle left by my friend who died 10 years ago this October) but I generally do not drink whiskey.

I love beer (not as much as Brett Kavanaugh, but a lot), but I drink much less of it since I've been watching my weight. I drink a lot more whiskey, mostly bourbon (because I live in the heart of bourbon country) but I've been stretching out into Scotch lately. Rarely I will drink Tennessee whiskey, Irish whiskey, or Canadian whiskey.

There was once a South African brand of beer which was described as "like making love in a canoe: very close to water".  Drink Drink TongueOut

I hope to visit the mother country someday soon and have some German beers there.

It would be awesome to go to an Oktoberfest in Munich and have one of those big ass glasses of beer and have authentic German food.
