There are many mixed beer drinks. The classic shandy comes in sweet or sour, i.e. mixed with lemonade or sparkling water. For the soot, mix wheat with white lemon soda. Weißbier is also used for cola wheat or banana wheat. If you want to drink a spritzer, you mix beer with Fassbrause and for the Almradler you use Almdudler as a mixed drink. Somewhat more absurd are cocktails like the Helle Moritz, which is mixed together from wheat and sparkling wine. There are numerous other variants in Franconia, but our favorite among them is clearly the Gaas measure. This refreshing drink is made with lager, cola and a cherry spirit.
The example from Krug consists of lager, cola and an exquisite dessert wine with cherries. Despite the higher percentage of ingredients, the mixed drink only has a mild 2.8% alcohol content. The delicacy flows into the glass in the color of cola and also smells like it. A hint of cherry joins the typical scent of the soda - a pattern that is also reflected in the taste. Cola and cherry combine with a subtle tartness, light malt and grassy hop notes to create a sweet refreshment.
The Gaas-Seidla from the Krug-Bräu is a welcome change from the conventional shandy and scores with the charm of the cherry and a strong cola note.
