Many suggest blending to achieve the shandy, but I like Curious Traveler's because the flavor feels more integrated.
I found this article:

which gives some insight:
"Newmans flagship brand, Curious Traveler, isnt a blend, actually. It starts with an American wheat beer, a style with a citrusy edge to begin with, and adds lemon and lime puree at the tail end of fermentation. The recipe also calls for a little crushed lemon peel. Curious Traveler has a tart, bracing lemon meringue flavor and a bready aftertaste. Its light on the palate, but its beer, not pop."
Any suggestions on the malt & hops to use?
