I'd like to know why any self-respecting man would even THINK of trying fru-fru-flavored michelob ultra??

Must have been a 3rd group guy....  . He's probably a Red Stripe fan too......
God forbid you break the brewer's regulations.
Other than a lemon in weissen bier and a lime in corona... no fruit allowed.

I drank a cherry beer onetime when I was in Belgium. It came in a cute little bottle but it was too sweet. Now a Berliner which is a pilsner with just a small squirt of fruit juice in it isn't that bad, especially on a hot day when you're sitting alongside the Unter Den Linden. I enjoy my Kristallweizen with a slice of lemon also.
When I was on vacation I had a Czech beer called Bruno. I tried both the light and dark and I think it was flat one of the best beers I've ever tasted. Those Czechs might have something on the Germans. I've been told that when brewing beer it all begins with the water.

A man after my own heart and palate.
The cherry beers and such are a bit different than an ultra-light beer further demoted from beer status with fruit flavorings. They definitely are not in the same class.
I've been known to enjoy a lambic from time to time - but it's typically in the company of someone who insists they will never find a beer they like - 85% of the time the leave with a new appreciation for the versatility of the stuff.

LatschenMass
There is a place over south of Hofolding (east of Sauerlach on the other side of A8) that used to serve a LatschenMass. As I recall, a shot of kirsch or other red liquer poured into a Mass that also featured a nice big sprig from a spruce tree. Really wasn't as bad as it sounds.
By the way, if you are near the Sauerlach exit on A8 and are hungry try Rudi's gasthaus in Hofolding. They have really good schnitzel (by German standards) and Schweinshaxe. If you head east from the autobahn go about 1 Km and you will practically drive in the front door.

A friend of my brother brought a six-pack over for me as a gift, and good manners forced me to drink one while he raved about how great it was.
Now where is that puking smiley?

This thread has definitely strayed from a most noble subject to talk of the most disgusting and vile...
Gentlemen, can we please return to the talk of BEER, one of the most notable discoveries of mankind? No more talk of vulgar irregularities like flavors and other distasteful additions...
Beer should be partaken in its purest form... From the keg. If that is not available, from a glass bottle.
In most desparate times it can be consumed from a can, but please, wash your mouth out as soon as possible with one of the more noble and civilized methods mentioned.

The subject of the thread was Radlers...a concoction I first experienced near Bad Toelz and that concoction was beer mixed with lemon lime soft drinks...thus, vile though it may be, pomegranate and raspberry flavored beer with a twist of lime and a vanilla bean is germane to the thread...IMNHO...

Not German, and not with soft drinks, but a few years ago in Scotland my uncle introduced me to "lager and lime," which was simply the pub's lager from the tap mixed with the sweetened lime juice used for mixing cocktails. (Maybe an ounce or so of the lime juice in a pint of lager.) He said he was introduced to the drink by a British Sergeant Major decades ago.
The result almost tasted like a soft drink. They certainly went down easily (how many? I plead the fifth). Apparently every barkeep in Scotland knew exactly what to do, but I got a "huh?" any time I tried ordering one State-side.

While I'm more of a weizen man myself, Tommyknocker's Maple Brown Nut (especially the Imperial version, at 9.8% ABV) goes down very easy and isn't too sweet despite the addition of maple syrup.

I`ll just stick to my yuengling black and tan. but to answer the topic, yes I have drank it before. It`s a good mix on the warmer german days, when you want a light beer, but with the taste of your favorite beer. use to make it with "Licher" beer.
