Shandies are a generally accepted thing, and they’re half lemonade half beer, so this really isn’t some wild, out there concoction.

On top of that, fruit IPAs are a thing as well. They’re not my thing but other people like them so, good for them I guess.

Yeah, but complaining about bitter and then adding more bitter to improve it makes no sense. They didn’t say they added sweet tea.

Iced tea usually has tons of sugar.

That’s sweet tea in northern America. Unsweetened is the default here.

That’s going to be regional. In the US iced tea is unsweetened. Sweet tea is the one with tons of sugar, or if you’re in the south they might just call it tea. In my travels in the US it’s pretty understood that “iced tea” is unsweetened.

In the north of France, there’s a thing sold that’s “beer bitter” which is a bitter alcohol specifically for adding to beer (Picon being the most common one).

The true purpose is probably mostly to add alcohol though. But it does taste nice.

That probably isn’t marketed to people that think beer is too bitter already.

As a PNW beer snob, I used to make shandies out of the Ranier 30 racks that would be left at our house after a party. I didn’t like the beer at the time and mixing it with lemon San Pellegrino made it delightful.

I now drink Ranier proudly when I can since I moved to Chicago. I love this city but I still bleed green, white, and blue.
