November 6, 2010 (Day 280) — Classic Shandy
Hmmmmm… beer.
Beer and ginger ale.
Beer and ginger ale = Classic Shandy.
Classic Shandy
1/2 pint glass wheat beer
1/2 pint ginger ale
Put some ice in a pint glass, fill halfway with the beer, then fill the rest of the way with ginger ale.
Cheers!

Honestly didn’t know that a ‘classic’ Shandy had Ginger Ale in it! I LOOOOVVVEE Ginger Ale and wheat beer. Gonna have to try this! Does the beer need to be a filtered wheat, or will un-filtered be as ‘classic’?
bottoms up!!!

My favorite Shandy is made with Lemonade instead of ginger ale. I think the lemon balances out the hoppiness better than the ginger ale. It’s probably better with a really good ginger ale, though. Maybe even ginger beer!
As for the proprtions, half the fun is working out the proportions!
