They're hugely agreeable and yet calling them a fruit beer is almost out of context: this one was every bit as gratifying as a 'real' lager. Shocking, right? In all honesty though, I can't understand why more bars don't offer them. Stiegl Radler was a tremendously refreshing, enjoyable patio drink the hot afternoon in June I skipped work to have it. It is light, however, and at only two and half percent alcohol, I had no reservations about ordering a second glass, err test tube. But it's not something a child would like, there's too much beer flavour for that. The beer's light acidity is balanced by a rich and bready continental maltiness and its light sourness is balanced by a liberal amount of sugar. It also tastes a lot like soda water, however, clean, wholesome, bready malts secure the satisfaction of drinking a beer (not a soda or fruit cooler). I initially thought I was tasting lemon - the specific flavour of citrus isn't as perceptible as the general sourness and acidity. The beer tastes as straightforward as it sounds: grapefruit, soda, herbs, sugar, Stiegl lager. Beer is hardly detectable but is, I suspect, what's responsible for cutting out the acidity that would otherwise be sensed where grapefruit juice has been added. It boasts candid citrus and faint herbals, with a heavy residual sugary dryness. The aroma is remarkably like that of a white wine spritzer it is pleasant although far more aesthetic than elegant. Stiegl-Radler Grapefruit is a spin on the classic radler, brewed with grapefruit juice in addition to lemonade. Radlers are a popular style of beer in Germany, typically brewed with a mix of beer and lemonade or soda. Packaging: Crate 20 x 0. Stiegl-Radler Grapefruit is a 2.5 ABV radler made with Stiegl-Goldbru beer and grapefruit juice. No matter if you are around on two wheels or two legs. It is quite an odd, unique looking concoction! Stiegl Radler Grapefruit is the perfect low alcoholic beverage for calorie conscious consumers. Its head is bubbly and fizzing and its cloudy, lemon-juice body couldn't be made any paler even with all the skin-bleaching creams in India. Served in what appears to be a Stiegl-branded test tube or beaker, this Radler does indeed look like some kind of science experiment on lease from the lab. On-tap at Town Crier Pub / Halfway Beer House, in Toronto.
