Description
At Traveler Beer Company we expand what craft beers can be by adding new flavors and discovering old traditions. We discovered the shandy tradition in Europe and are thrilled to bring this unique style of beer home, to you. Shandys exemplify everything we look for in a craft beer—they are different from the mainstream, fun, inviting, and social, and thanks to the finest ingredients, shandys taste amazing.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this cider poured a hazy yellow-gold color with an enormous fluffy yellow-white head that lingered and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was sweet sugar and tangy apple although it reminded me of an apple Jolly Rancher. The flavor was tangy apple and sweet sugar - again more like a Jolly Rancher. Long finish. Medium body.Meh.

Bottle. A- Lemons, sweet, artificial, cleaner. A- Yellow color, cloudy liquid, white head. T- Lemon drop candy, lemons, sweet, artificial P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, cloying finish. O- Smells decent if you like lemon candy, other than that this was pretty artificial tasting and quite cloying. I love a good shandy but this is really a ho hum shandy.

Bottle. Apple juice and barley malt aroma. Hazy golden yellow with small head. Sweet apple juice and slightly sour barley malt flavor. Like a mediocre cider mixed with a cheap beer - kind of funky.
