I drink a lot of shandies because I'm normally rocking up to the pub a thirsty mess so I'll smash a couple of those because they only have diet coke shit on the gun. The shandies at my local just look like lager, maybe a bit lighter. The stuff in Spain with the cloudy lemonade (which you can buy lots of pre-made versions of btw) is kind of hazier, creamier looking lager - could easily be mistaken for a hazy IPA.

I have to admit that I can't remember the last time I had a lager shandy or lager top. The cloudy lemonade in my mind had bits in. Hope that they are bits of lemon therefore healthy;) so lager with bits in. Doesn't feel right. While I'm wondering what colour the lager goes with the lemony colour.
@ELbowloh wash your mouth out, with top deck. Shandy bass was the OG. It was the Stella of the playground. In the wife beater sense ;)
Top deck was the panda cola to the full on original coke of shandy bass. I will stand on this point for Eva.
Top deck is a lot older than I thought and was owned by Beecham's till mid 80s and slot more versions. Think top deck was lager based having a lime version while bass was bitter.
Good way to get kids used to alcohols taste, every tried cidona? From Eire?
