DAB Radler
Dortmunder Actien Brauerei / DAB

At my lady Pamela's house; canned and chilled, 500mL in a pint glass. From The Roundhouse Centre LCBO on Howard Ave. in nearby Windsor. Canned July 2/25. My 4th beer from the Dortmund, Germany brewery, and 1st for 2026. Lovingly embraced by Sundae the cat...

Canned in a crafty craft can and purchased from budget supermarket Aldi
Very marked and natural lemon aroma.
Not unlike an old fashioned lemonade
Mouthfeel is a little disappointing but it is still quite pleasant

De Aldi. Lata. En copa Teku. En almuerzo, con pollo guisado en taquitos. Aroma a limon muy marcado y natural. En boca se expresa menos, pero aún así resulta bastante agradable

 

 

 

Pours a very carbonated and clear gold. Had a little bit of a white skin on the top that just crackled away.

Smells like a freshly cut open lemon. Delightful!

Very fizzy lemon flavored drink! Tastes like a sharply carbonated lemonade!

Mouth feel is light and washes down quickly leaving just a hint of stickiness in the throat.

Very light and refreshing Radler! I really liked this beer but also wonder with that after lying sweet stickiness just how much a person could consume. At 3% ABV I see no problem ABV wise in smashing a few however. Got this at only about $5 for a four pack of tall cans so not bad on the price. I also drank this after coming home from eating a heavy meal. This beer really helped to settle my stomach down a bit. Like an after dinner spritzer! Going down with an overall of 4! Cheers!

Got as a mystery beer selection at Deliah Foley’s Irish Bar in Baltimore, Maryland. In the Federal Hill area. 3$ for a tall can at the bar.

This stuff puts Mike Hard to shame. More natural, and you get a ever so slight beer taste in there. Very light and non-offensive. Also craps on leinenkugels too. Doesn’t feel overly-sweet, just simplifies the old concept of a refreshing summer beer. Awesome stuff.

500ml can picked up at Total Wine in Bellevue, Washington.
05/08/2020. Served in a pint glass.

Look- Hazy golden/yellow color. A solid foamy off-white head that recedes rather quickly to a thin cap of foam, a minimal amount of lacing. Light carbonation streams visible.

Smell- Citrus (lemon and pithy lime), light grainy malt, faint grassy notes.

Taste- Straight up sugar coated lemondrop candy with some light malt notes. More like a lemon/lime soda than a beer.

Feel- Light bodied and sweet, fairly crisp, smooth with a slight lemon pith bitter finish. Moderate carbonation on the tongue. Pretty refreshing.

O- Decent, there are better radlers out there but I could knock back several of these on a hot summer day.

 

Nope. Tastes like lemon scented soap which makes it an unworkable thing.

Pleasantly hazy pale lemon yellow brew under a big soapy (!) white head that settles to a ring. No lace. Nice enough aroma but a bust after that. Puffy-mouthed sweetness, lemon is artificial in character to me. Chemical notes. I don't think this ber and the lemon like each other.

DAB Radler | Dortmunder Actien Brauerei / DAB. Poured from the can into a pint glass, the head's three fingers thick, with some spotty lacing, and a hazy pale gold body.

Smells like lemonade, straight up!

The taste is also exactly like lemonade. Not the overtly sugary type, either. Talk about total refreshment.

Lighter mouthfeel with mild carbonation.

I've chosen to rate DAB Radler | Dortmunder Actien Brauerei / DAB with 4 overall.

Poured from a 0.5L can into a glass. It's yellow in color and minimally hazy. It's quite carbonated and has a moderate head. On the can, it states: "BEER MIX OF 60% BEER AND 40% LEMONADE."

I am favorably impressed with this light, refreshing radler. It's sweet but not excessively so. Not much of a hop flavor, and the grain (I assume barley) is understated. The taste is definitely dominated by lemonade, which is fine for the genre. A fine, simple, easy-drinking, summertime brew.

DAB Radler brewed by Dortmunder Actien Brauerei / DAB, with an ABV of 3.00% This Fruit and Feild Beer pours out a hazy light golden amber color with a thin, small white head. The head to this brew goes away fast. You pick up on lots of lemon an sweetness in the smell of this brew. Along with mild notes of grians an malts. From the can it says this is a beer mix of 60% Beer and 40% Lemonade, sounds interesting enough. Now for the taste, it is sweet with lemonade flavors mixed with brew. You do pick up on some nice grain notes in the taste. There is nothing overpowering about DAB Radler , it has a super nice balance to it. This brew would go great on a hot summer day. If you are a fan of Lemonade , you should look this brew up. The mouth feel is Bold, Sweet, Light, Lemon, Clean, Smooth and Refreshing. Overall I am going to give DAB Radler a 3.50 out of 5. I would definitely look this brew up again giving the opportunity to. Dortmunder Actien Brauerei / DAB, did a real nice job with with this brew.

This was better than expected.

 

500 ml can into pint glass, canned on 4/23/2018. Pours slightly hazy pale golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big lightly tart lemon/orange juice, lime, citrus zest, wheat, cracker, white bread/sugar, and light herbal/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance of lemonade, pale malt, and light earthy hop notes; with great strength. Taste of big lightly tart lemon/orange juice, lime, citrus zest, cracker, white bread/sugar, and light herbal/grassy earthiness. Mild herbal/grassy/spicy bitterness and lemon tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of lightly tart lemon/orange juice, lime, citrus zest, wheat, cracker, white bread/sugar, and light herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great robustness and balance of lemonade, pale malt, and light earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness and fruit tartness balance; with no puckering/astringent flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness, tart/tangy citrus, and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, fairly bready/grainy, and lightly sticky/tangy/acidic balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 3%. Overall this is an excellent radler! All around great robustness and balance of lemonade, pale malt, and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Very flavorful and not watery for the ABV. Extremely vibrant lemonade flavors, with great pilsner malt presence/balance, and mild earthy hops. A very enjoyable offering and spot on style example. One of the better ones I have had in the style.

500ml can - it shows an image of lemons on the front label, but is actually made with more orange than lemon. And it seems like it's all natural, which is a little surprising.

This beer pours a slightly hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy off-white head, which leaves absolutely nothing in the way of lace anywhere near the glass as it slowly but surely abates.

It smells of European lemonade, grainy and crackery pale malt, a bit of hard water flintiness, and very little else. The taste is simple syrup, lemon candies, gritty and grainy generic malt, a faint damp minerality, and yeah, that's it.

The carbonation is average in its palate-pinging frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and generally smooth, with a weak airy creaminess arising as things warm up a tad around here. It finishes off-dry, the bready lemonade character presiding.

Overall - yeah, I guess I should have expected this, but at least there are no off-flavours, and it is rather refreshing, if a wee bit on the sweet side. At any rate, given how much I've sweated the past few days, I'm happy to have this to replenish some small amount of the nutrients that I have likely lost - ever hopeful!
