The Wandawega Radler, from Camp Wandawega + Solemn Oath Brewery.
This one’s been in the stars. Or maybe in the supper clubs. A 3.3% Lemon Radler made with precision, purpose, and a heavy lean into the soul of the Midwest.
This is a beer for morning lake swims, solo porch hangs, and kicking the gravel off your boots before the bonfire. It’s Illinois-made, German in roots, Wisconsin in spirit, and born from a long-standing creative collision with the legends at Camp Wandawega.
Tereasa Surratt and David Hernandez have built a universe we revere. We’ve made beer together before under Hidden Hand. We’ve done art, made a deck of cards, thrown parties, soundtracked weekends, and taken over camp in a dozen different ways. But this one’s different.
This is the first beer made together, as us—Camp Wandawega + Solemn Oath Brewery. Clean. Bright. Built with intention. And ready for everything from dock dives to slow sunrises.

Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance – The beer pours a clear light amber color with a small fizzy head of white foam. The head fades quickly leaving a just a hint of foam on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is strong of a lemon rind and lemon seed smell mixed with a good showing of lemon juice and some light sweetness of a sugary nature. There is also a bit of caramel and a touch of cracker malt rounding it out, producing a drier lemonade reminiscent aroma.
Taste – The taste begins with a lightly caramel sweetened, bready and cracker malt flavor mixed with a moderate level of lemon. The lemon is of a sweeter nature upfront, taking on a lemonade like flavor. As the taste advances more lemon peel comes into play, and the lemon sours a tad, carrying the taste to its end and leaving one with a semi-sweet and rather easy natured lemon Radler taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body is light with a carbonation level that is middle of the road and consisting of slightly finer bubbles.
Overall – At only 3.3 % abv, I was initially expecting to get an overly sweet brew. I was rather surprised and satisfied at the approach, producing an easy natured, flavorful, and very approachable summer refresher. Nice overall.
