About this deal

Chris Dela Rosa of Caribbean Pot showcases a straightforward guide to crafting a refreshing shandy beer recipe for sunny days.

Shandy Panaché: Lime Ginger & Mint + Mango & Pineapple 2.2% (Brewed in collaboration with Steep Soda) June 2020 Oolong Blond: 6.0% & Berry & Hibiscus Sour 3.5% (Brewed in Collaboration with Manchester Art Gallery and Canton Tea) November 2019 For this classic version, we used a pale ale and mixed it with the traditional option of ginger beer. It makes for a balanced and more moody shandy than the summer shandy, which is lighter and more citrusy. Speaking of… Variations: summer shandy and grapefruit shandy But the invention of a clever mixture of beer and lemonade would have older origins. In fact, they would be attributed to the German Franz Xaver Kugler, in 1922, Here’s a recipe featuring a fun twist for your summer favorite: the shandy beer! This one uses ginger, orange, and cranberry to feature the flavors of winter and fall and is still a light, refreshing beer!

Prepare five slices of ginger, four beers, one sliced lemon, and one can of frozen concentrated lemonade for this drink. As the recipe name suggests, try this recipe, chill your way out, and beat the summer heat! 19. Cranberry Shandy As I’m not a beer drinker, my biggest experience with shandy was my dad drinking them in summer. He’d love to have one after he’d been out cutting the grass for hours in the Michigan heat and humidity. Dad would come inside and pop open a lemon-lime soda (simply because that’s all we have in the US) and whatever beer he had on hand. He’d mix them together (about half and half) into a beer glass, and always said how thirst-quenching they were. I LOVE these toucan Guinness glasses! Topping up. When I told Dad about the lemonade mix up with the classic shandy, he couldn’t believe it. I suppose now it’s too late to get the message out as all of the shandy recipes I found online are use the wrong type of lemonade! This is much like the ricotta recipes I’ve seen flooding the internet: 90% of them aren’t for ricotta! Ricotta means “cooked twice” so it’s a specific way it’s made. Most of the recipes all are making cheese, NOT ricotta–ugh. Shandygaff is a compound word, but as to why the base words came together (or in what senses they are used in) is a mystery. Inevitably, there has been speculation. Some people have suggested that gaff is a portmanteau of ginger and half. That's possible, but what about the other multiple uses of gaff that enter the English language by mid-19th century? Quite possibly, one of those could have been applied jocularly for the beverage's name. Runaway to the Fells: 4% Spiced Damson Gose & Walk on The Mild Side: 6.0% Dark Ruby Mild (Both brewed in Collaboration with Fell Brewery) July & November 2021

The most common use of gaff is as the name for the spear or hook used for lifting heavy fish out of the water. Another gaff refers to loud laughter (as in "his resounding gaffs filled the room" or "he gaffed merrily")—senses found in dialectal Scottish English. There is also gaff meaning "a fair" or "a place of lower-class amusement (as at a theater or music hall)." In a 1918 collection of essays entitled, fittingly, Shandygaff, American writer Christopher Morley links the word shandygaff to the lower classes, "Shandygaff is a very refreshing drink, being a mixture of bitter ale or beer and ginger-beer, commonly drunk by the lower classes in England, and by strolling tinkers, low church parsons, newspaper men, journalists, and prizefighters." As early as the 17th century, shandy was also being used in dialectal English as an adjective to refer to people who were wild, boisterous, or slightly crazy. Perhaps, the "place of lower-class amusement" sense of gaff and this sense of shandy were blended together. It's certainly not unreasonable to think that people drinking shandygaffs in lower-class establishments got a little wild—we just need to find evidence corroborating this etymology. Why water down your beer? Two reasons: it tastes great, and it’s a low alcohol drink, which makes it more hydrating in warm weather. The shandy is to beer exactly what a spritzer is to wine!

Panach’ is a commercial brand created in 1979 by Heineken, a Dutch brewing group, and brewed for the first time, precisely at the Brasserie de la Valentine, in Marseille.However, many sources say that this is just a legend. Indeed, there is evidence in the German literature that the radler measure was already known in 1912, probably even around 1900. As a result, it is said to be a legend more than a story, cleverly thought out, to attract more visitors to the Kugler Alm. Today, shandies pave their way to the commercial market. In 2007, a beverage company in Wisconsin, Leinenkugel, first launched its bottle version. This brand is the first to garner recognition. 19 Best Shandy Beer Recipes
