Shandy

A traditional Shandy is a beer mixed with a little something extra like lemonade, fruit juice, or even soda. With a balance of sweet and tart flavors, this light-bodied style delivers a crisp, refreshing finish.

Glassware

A weizen glass is best for this beer because the shape locks in aroma and showcases the beer’s color. You can also pour this beer into a pilsner glass.

Food Pairings

Cheese: Shandys with high acidity (think lemon or citrus) add a bright contrast to earthy cheeses like Brie.
Savory Meats: The sweetness in this beer style contrast the saltiness of holiday hams perfectly. If you’re looking for something more casual, pair this style with turkey or brisket sandwiches made with holiday leftovers.
