Product Information

The problem with this is the in the US, as much as the craft brew scene is taking over, I still found it quite difficult to find a true Helles. Eric Kobus is the regional manager for Glunz Imports in Chicago, where they’ve been selling Stiegl for more than ten years, and he finds the appreciation for the low alcohol somewhat amusing. “Early on,” he said, “when you were talking about radlers, you were almost apologetic because of the low alcohol. Now, it’s the point of it. You can play golf, go for a run, whatever. It’s become the main selling point.”

Therefore, a lot of people will say that you can just go with any lighter lager style of beer, but let’s be serious here. A Budweiser is not going to suffice here! In The North In the Northern parts of Germany, a Radler is sometimes called “Alterwasser” and is more commonly made with a Pilsner style beer rather than a Helles (lager). The name’s an important thing, though, because the association with cyclists, sports and an active life is appropriate. The 50/50 split with beer and lemonade leads to a drink that’s ideal for integration into that life style. Radlers range from 1.8 to 2.5 percent alcohol by volume, less than the usual light beer, and the “lemonade” is usually a carbonated soft drink based on natural fruit juices with a minimal amount of added sugar.

So What is the Best Radler Beer?

If you can actually believe it, I wasn’t a beer drinker before moving to Germany. But what is an even odder twist of events is that the beer that I fell for first in Bavaria was a Dunkel (dark) beer….not even some “easier to drink” light beer. Nope, I headed straight for the liquid bread! Fast forward to 2021 and the radler is having a moment, a moment that’s turning into momentum. Stiegl’s boldly colorful cans have spread, and the sales have lured breweries like Schöfferhoffer, Ottakringer, and even some big, recognizable names like Paulaner and Bitburger to test the radler waters in America. Another popular product from Paulaner is their Oktoberfest beer. The Paulaner Oktoberfest has been served at the famous Oktoberfest festival in Munich since 1818, and it is considered by many to be the quintessential Oktoberfest beer. This beer is a classic Marzen-style lager, which is brewed in the spring and then stored until the festival in the fall. It has a rich, malty flavour with a hint of caramel, and it’s usually served in large steins. Brewing Process Steve Hauser, the CEO of Paulaner USA, touched on something that I think has a lot to do with why radlers have caught on. “It’s all occasion-based, so the consumer who was drinking a malt-based seltzer might look at a radler, a true beer-based fruit infusion.”

Weißbier – Also known as Weizenbier, this is the German term for wheat beer, a type of top-fermented beer which, as the name suggests, is made with a greater proportion of wheat to hops. Within this category are filtered varieties such as Kristallweizen and cloudier, unfiltered styles such as Hefeweizen, among others. Are there lighter options available? Did the interest in radlers come from the interest in hard seltzers? I don’t know, but I can tell you that I don’t really find seltzers appealing—hard or not—largely because of the mere teasing wisp of flavoring. I’m much more interested in a low-sugar fruit juice-based drink, like the Italian San Pellegrino soft drinks or the Bravazzi line of hard sodas, and radlers slot right into that.Kellerbier – Is a type of unfiltered and unpasteurised German lager. They’re subsequently cloudy in colour and possess a sweet, malty, almost bread-like flavour, due to the brewing yeast that remains in the beer.

Most people are happy with bog standard beer. They’re happy drinking Carling or Heineken, and I don’t mind that. Each to their own.

Dunkel – This catch-all term refers to a variety of German dark lagers. Dark lagers, as opposed to pale lagers, are usually made with darker malts or roasted grains and have maltier flavours than pale lagers. Notes of chocolate, caramel and the like are not uncommon. of drinkers don’t have the palate to appreciate these beers. You’re here - we know you are more discerning than them. Well done for discovering Wee Beer Shop. In Bavaria, where the Radler Lemon Beer originates from, a classic Radler is going to be made with a Helles beer.So, I am going to argue that if you want an authentic Radler, then a Helles is the way to go. I don’t sell beers that are brewed using cheap ingredients to fit a low price strategy. For the breweries I work with it’s not about making cheap beer to sell to the masses. It’s about quality. Beerhunter offers a wide range of craft beers, and one of the most highly sought-after brands we carry is Paulaner. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at the history of Paulaner, the different types of Paulaner beer, how it’s brewed, and its most famous product, the Paulaner Oktoberfest. History of Paulaner

In fact, a memoir by Lena Christ, a writer who worked in a Munich restaurant in 1900 and 1901, notes not only was beer served, but also all kinds of lemonades, carbonated water, schorlemorle (wine mixed with sparkling water or apple juice) and radlermasse. The memoir, Erinnerungen einer Überflüssigen ( Remembrances of an Unwanted One), was published in 1912, which clearly predates Kugler’s 1922 claim. She gives no explanation of r adlermasse (the plural of radlermass), which certainly indicates that she was sure her readers would know this drink. On the lighter side, Paulaner Weizen-Radler is a fruit forward radler sans the alcohol. In creating this NA beer, Paulaner blended the taste of its popular Paulaner Hefe-Weizen with natural effervescent lemonade to create a non-alcoholic alternative for refreshingly fruity yet malty taste. Just as a standard low ABV Radler is this one also features citrus notes of lime, orange, and lemon match the wheat beer perfectly and provide a uniquely balanced taste experience.

So, yup. Basically, a German Radler is just simply Beer and Sprite! Simple enough, right? Well…maybe….. What Beer To Use For a Radler? I’d heard of radlers, but always as something they did in Germany. It was also something that didn’t appeal to me. If you are in Bavaria, I am slightly obsessed with the Mönchshof Radlers. They are the best I’ve found, and yes, I’ve done a lot of “taste testing.” Nope.“Lemonade” in Germany is actually going to be something like a Sprite or 7-Up. So, if you are looking for a Radler recipe, and it calls for “Lemonade” it’s not going to taste like a fresh, authentic Radler that you would get in Deutschland.
