50cl bottle from Tesco. An interesting take on the 2.8% concept - blend your beer down to that ABV with lemonade - well that’s what the label says. This ceratinly looks like a "proper" bitter shandy, a fairly dark amber with a billowing white head and some gentle carbonation once it settles down; the aroma has the traditional Burton egginess; the flavour has the expected balance of malts and sweet lemonade, but it’s much sweeter than I’d expect - certainly if I’d made my own shandy from Pedigree and R Whites to hit this ABV. Not bad, particularly the lemonade, but could be better.

500ml bottle. Pours orange with a thin head. Aroma is dusty, grainy, faint lemonade and boiled sweet malt. Nice lemonade start. Some dusty malt. Lemonade and fruity malt finish. Refreshing, at least.
