Inventions (Mostly Shandy/Snakebite variants) Thread

But what do you call just lager and cider mix?

It’s what you do if you absolutely need to projectile vomit black bile while singing a sentimental song

Exactly like I said, a classy drink.

Pint of berocca with a jäger shot in it.. recovery drink pioneered on the morning of a stag do somewhere

Snakebite is sans blackcurrant.

Snakey B is the colloquial term for snakebite and black round my neck of the woods

Caffreys, strongbow and blackcurrant was the thing at the students union at Sheffield Hallam when I was there. Wicked hangover from drinking that

Kalimotxo. I occasionally drink the alcohol, caffeine and sugar free version

Me too

Ha, I'm deadly serious. Caffeine free Diet Coke and AF red wine.

Haven't had one for a while cuz I'm off the carbs.

How is that allowed with those strict brewing laws?

It's not just teenagers. I know a guy :)

Well, it is delicious. 😋

Also a snakebite, but I guess the blackcurrant version is the only one I've ever seen anyone actually drink.

I've never heard of this UK cola version as a diesel and the only "diesel" I've seen is the German one.

I'm going for Germany if there's a war over diesel.

The Prickly Pear one is foul though

Presumably the beer still qualifies. Then it has the flavouring additives.

There's TONNES of radler variants available in Germany.

It's not me. It was a race director. He introduced me to them. I'd drink it but it's certainly not my go to :) I'd probably have a coke and then chilled (yes, chilled, do one, wine snobs) red wine.

Lager can be a good energy drink;)

I don't drink anymore but chilled red was always A-OK with me!!

Not a clue, but people go on about those laws and that is a reason Germans don't do fruity beers any way I'm more of a Belgian fruity beer person

Old as fuck beers like gose has salt in it, wheat beers exist - often with added coriander.

Nowadays German craft beers have all kinds of additions. I don't know legally what the standpoint is (read wiki) but the purity laws seem pretty optional. I presume only the really old breweries with limited products care about adhering to them.

Our student days special was turbo snakebite, (pre nerfed) special brew, k cider and cassis, if you managed 2 it was an amazing feat and you were guaranteed to be cunted

k cider

That's my go to if I'm late to a stadium gig or something and don't want to pay £487 for a pint of piss lager in the venue. Grab some of these from an offie, neck 'em, in we go.

There’s a watermelon one too, which I am told is disgusting. Neither pineapple or watermelon seem like reasonable choices from any angle.

It was my go to when I lived at my parents and bored of an evening. Roll a joint, offer to walk the dog, go round the corner to the offie and grab a k, drink that whilst smoking, come back half an hour later and blast jungle in my room

Ignorant Aussie. Snakebite is half lager, half cider. Add blackcurrant and it's a snakebite and black. Add a shot of Pernod and it's a Purple Nasty. No one could drink more than three pints of that, and the vomit if you tried more was spectacular.

No one could drink more than three pints of that

*hippy goes off and drinks four*

I mean, 27.
