Gold with 20mm head. Lots of fizziness. Because I know it is a shandy and rating it as if it is a beer it will have low scores.

A 330ml can with a BB of July 2014. Acquired from a supermarket a while back. Nothing like a low-alcohol shandy...no really.

Poured into a pilsner glass. A clear golden colour with medium carbonation. Forms a decent head of white foam that dissipates rapidly. Aroma of sweet lemonade with the faintest hint of light malt. Barely resembles beer at all.

Tastes of sugary lemonade. Sweet lemon flavour and nothing else. Not much of a shandy - more like a weakly alcoholic soft drink. Mouthfeel is light and watery, with spritzy carbonation. Thin body. Aftertaste of sugary lemonade.

Generally unimpressive, even for a pre-prepared shandy. Basically, this is perfect if you want lemonade that aspires to be some sort of beer. If you want proper beer, get something else. Probably alright on a hot summer's day, but otherwise give it a miss.
