Review

Best described as a lager sour served long with soda water. Super refreshing and palate cleansing on a hit afternoon.

Too much sugar for my taste. I used an amber lager and a Pils or Helles immediately seemed like a much better choice.

That's a somewhat strange way to make a cocktail out of a very basic drink. The traditional way to make a Radler in Germany is to simply use half Pilsner and half Sprite. No ice needed and serve in a pint glass.
