According to one of the commercial beer tv ads, Man Law states "no fruit in beer." I read an older post about Corona using lime to hide the skunkiness. What's up with Blue Moon and the orange slice? Same tactic?
+1I don't know. But I absolutely hate fruit in beer. And I hate "flavors" in beer even more. So a fruited beer with coriander is particularly vile to me.
Man law, huh? LOL!
what about vegtabling a beer? you know, a splash of spicy V-8 in a coors. nothing better for breakfast!:rockin:

That is required to cover up the taste of Coors. That stuff even kills the fish.

No no no, that is me "on" that stuff that is ripping the lips off of fish in canada every year. About a 12 pack of that stuff some cigars and a trolling motor and im a fish killing SOB.

I like how Miller said "Don't fruit the beer," yet about 6 months after that they released their lime beer. Go figure.
I can't bring myself to put a lemon in my Hefes...
On another note, has anyone ever tried that "Clamato Bud light" crap I see at gas stations all the time? I tried it once on a whim... not a good idea, not at all...
Parade Magazine suggests the following:

Stop right there. You're point, no matter how factual, is null and void. Why? Because you read Parade Magazine!
Nothing but marketing crap. Kinda like "cold brewed", "Rocky Mountain water", "True Pilsner", etc. So
I'm not a fan of fruit in my beer . . but I'm ok with beer in my fruit!. Case in point - a good shandy on a hot day - 70% lager and 30% lemonade.
Or the best damn margaritas I've tasted:
1 can frozen limeade concentrate (the size that says to add 54 oz water)
mix up limeade using 4 12 oz light lagers instead of water
add 12-16 oz tequila
serve in pint glasses over ice
Most people won't even know they're drinking beer. They'll just be raving about how good they are. You'll catch yourself thinking "jeez, why does this margarita taste so good?! Oh, because I'm also getting to drink a beer!"
Also, I know there is no way to say this without sounding like I'm up me own arse but I was in Bavaria for a long time and never had a beer with lemon in it, that is some craziness (in a good way)...

I went to an Octoberfest party two years ago, thrown by a guy who lived in Munich for a few years, and there was a cooler of lemonade there, right next to the beer keg -( Paulaner.) He told me that this was common in Germany. I thought the Shandy idea was English.
You can't be a brewer (or a distiller, or vintner) and say the water doesn't matter. Water sources are extremely important to breweries all over the world and some of the oldest will refuse to move because they would lose their water. Now does that go for Coors? I have seen the water running into Golden, and I hope not. But Fresh Rocky Mountain Tap Water does have a special place in my heart
This sounds awfully close to something we made in college (especially great for pi phi socials) called Electric Lemonade. We substituted the tequila for 110 "vodka" of course, that **** was lethal... Awesome, but lethal...

Sounds like a pitcher of "Strip and go Naked" that my wife and her friends mix up on the deck in the summer
