Are Radlers a thing your side of the Atlantic? It's like 7up but beer-ish.

Radlers and shandies are both things over here. They're the rebranding of wine coolers.

Miller discovered they owned an old, underperforming brewery by the name of Leinenkugel (which, amusingly, had previously purchased Blatz) so they made them produce "summer shandy." It's fuckin' Bartles & Jaymes minus the food coloring.

they don't ring a bell for me but that doesn't mean much

i don't really drink anything except water other than maybe once every other week or so and my default special occasion drink is ginger ale and not beer
