Warka Radler (Lemonade)
Browary Warka Sp. z o.o.

Pale yellow color , good white head. Strong lemon aroma. The taste is sweet and lemony . High carbonation, refreshing. Good beer-mix but nothing more.

Holy moley; 2% abv? Falling off the wagon with this one. 500ml can poured into a can-shaped nonic. Cloudy 'lemonade' pour with a big, fizzy white head that builds up and then fades quickly. The nose and palate are straight lemonade with those impressions of bits of sugar like you get in fresh-made lemonade; really no other fruit flavors present. Light, fizzy, refreshing body. Overall: its a Radler! Tough to expect more than a fizzy sugary malt-beverage offering. Refreshing and tasty enough for what it is.

 

Pours hazy, caution light yellow with one quarter inch head. Taste is lemonade, lime juice, and white sugar. Light bodied, medium high carbonation, sweet and moderately tart. Makes for a nice and refreshing beer. Super easy to throw back.

 

 

Great summer beer for consuming after completing yard work. A bit too sweet to pair with many foods.

The color of lemon juice and as juice cloudy. Foam white, small, and appears only for a moment.
Aroma: lemon, a little synthetic.
Taste: very sweet lemon juice, refreshing but only for a moment.
High saturation, appropriate.

 

 

 

A thanks to the founding father of the canquest, woodychandler, for this beer. Poured from a 16.9 oz. can. Has a cloudy yellow color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is strictly of lemonade. Taste is lemonade, a bit on the sweet side, but some tartness as well. Feels light in the mouth and overall, I wouldn't drink this on a regular basis, but not bad for what it is.

It has been quite the few days on/for The CANQuest (tm)! I embarked on a mission to reduce/eradicate the backlog here at Chez Woody with triage giving priority to APAs/AIPAs/DIPAs since they are the most fragile, even in CANs. I am a self-avowed hophead, but after a veritable onslaught of bittering hops, I raised the white flag. My tongue feels like it has been through a wringer and its taste buds stripped down to the surface ala the South Dakota landscape along I-80. I CAN't go on and yet I must. I am now shifting gears and CANsidering pulling over at the next Rest Stop. Here comes the next one.

From the 500 ml CAN: "Naturally Refreshing Taste"; "Beer and Lemonade Flavoring"; "Extremely refreshing taste combining Warka beer and lemonade. Serve chiiled for best taste."; "Turbidity is a natural feature of the product."

Not only was there a loud Crack!, but the kitchen filled with a lemony scent that set my mouth to watering. I performed an inverted Glug until the foaming action got to be too much and I had to back off. I had two fingers of fizzy, bone-white head for the briefest of moments until it fell back to mere wisps. Color was a cloudy Pale-Straw (SRM = 1 -2). Nose smelled like the time we were goofing around and somebody sprayed lemon oil (for the wood deck) up my nose! F**k mace! Spray some of that s**t in somebody's eyes and nose! I was in Medical for hours. This was less intense, but not by much. Taste was a bit sweet for me, reminding me of Country Time Lemonade that we used to sell in paper cups as kids during the summertime. Speaking of which, it is a typical hot, humid summer day here in LanCANster, PA and I mowed my lawn earlier. This would have been CANtastic afterwards! Finish had a lemony tartness, but still too much residual sweetness for my taste.

 

Can from On the Fly Gasmart. Pours out a murky light golden color with huge head. Aroma is lemonade and 7-Up. Taste brings in more of the lemon lime soda, with hints of the pale malts . Hugely refreshing, as intended. One of the better pre-mixed radlers I’ve had.

 

Served from the can in a Tighthead Oktoberfest shaker pint glass.

Prepping for a homemade White Russian (props to VDubb, by the way) with a discounted can of Polish radler. Hellz yeah, dawg! This stuff pours a cloudy pale Squirt topped by a finger or so of relatively short-lived off-white foam. The nose comprises sweet/tart lemonade (again, not entirely unlike Squirt, though without the lime component) and a touch of vague graininess in the background. The taste brings in more of the same, an enjoyable lemon spritzer of sorts. The body is a light medium, with a moderate carbonation and a sorta/kinda drying finish. Overall, a pretty tasty radler, to be honest. Not bad at all.

This is lemonade/soda mixed with a small amount of beer, let's not fool ourselves here.

Pale pastel yellow, opaque like lemonade, a finger of white foam rises and settles quickly, fizzy and fleeting.

Smells like a decent lemonade, not cloying or artificial really, but not especially naturally either. No real indication of beer in there.

Vague lemon juice and seltzer, lightly tart and sweet, finishes clean. Spritzy feel, light lemony aftertaste. Overall it's not bad for what it is, better than Summer Shandy sure, but no great shakes. Seems like it would make a good mixer, but that's about it.
