Driven by wanderlust and a desire for discovery, the Curious Traveler™ set out to explore the globe. Always fearlessly inquisitive, he relished opportunities to befriend other travelers and to experience cultures he had only previously imagined. He sampled their wares, their foods and most importantly their libations. Some were good. Some not so good. Others were downright dangerous.

Many years into his travels, his pace slowed on a particularly sweltering day. He sought refuge in a small pub to escape the oppressive heat. Before he could even finish wiping his brow, the bartender handed him a glistening glass of ale. The Traveler took a liking to the invigorating lemon shandy concoction. “Quite a refresher!” he said gratefully.

The Traveler has never stopped exploring – in fact, he’s on the road this very day. Somewhere. Only one thing has changed: he now makes sure he orders a shandy everywhere he goes.

Bottle: Hazy yellow straw with a brief white head. Nose is musty lemon, taste is stale lemon peel and unpleasantly musty. Really did not care for this in any aspect whatsoever.

Wow so this is some serious hipster bullshit huh? old fashioned glasses and art, handlebar mustache, the whole thing except for somebody riding a pennyfarthing. Lemony nose and flavor, and somewhat briny which is odd but somehow quite welcome. Wheatish flavors at the finish along with a lingering faint country-time style fake lemonade aftertaste. I would say its complete crap but for that briny mineral type component which adds both a complexity and a counterpoint to the "lemony wheat beer" base. Quite hazy pale yellow, not much head.

Peachy. Cloudy yellow pour. Finishes with light sweetness. Comes together ok. On tap at DC Summerfest.

12 ounce bottle from Wegman’s Leesburg. Pours a murky yellow color with a thin frothy white head. Fair head retention. Aroma of tart lemonade and a faint but of crisp malt. The taste is pale malt, vanilla, lemon sweet mostly but with a hint of tartness. Thin-medium bodied, creamy, high carbonation. It is what it is.

At dc airport during layover. Ordered quick not realizing it was god damn shandy. Pours cloudy orange. Nose of oranges and lemons. Tastes of lemon, orange, pumpkin, nutmeg, and some yeast. Muddied flavors but easy going

Dark orange slight head. Smells like pumpkins and nutmeg. Big surprise. Whoa. Holy canned pumpkin purée! This is intense and spicy and pretty sweet. Not going to buy another

Draft at republic. From notes. Tart and lemony with a good dose of baking spices. Odd combination but it makes for a good brew.
