Reply to comment by Weyoun2 in [OC] My past year in a graph by Yordrecht

They included mental health. Odd to phrase it as "sick", but evidently english is a second language since they drink Radler and "dinned" at a restaurant.

Only some of the months are in Dutch. March/May/June/August are English. The whole thing could be made by a Dutchie though, quite a lot of mistakes in the English captions

No worries. It's all understandable. Plus I learned what radler is today. I will try it some day. :)

Isn't it normal to drink Radler? What would the correct verb be?

That wasn't a grammatical difference but a cultural one. That's a german drink I'd never heard of as an american (even though I learned a bit of german). :)

People gotta try radlers. Some people call them shandys in North America.

It’s just a mild flavoured beer and juice mix, they are bomb for backyard BBQ and picnics and hikes, very refreshing!

In Germany they’re usually not made with juice, but instead Sprite or another lemonade with a (preferably) 5% Pilsner or other blond Lager.

The occasions you mentioned are spot on though ;)

I like to mix a light beer with palm bay.

Sprite, I’ll try that one time! We get Stiegl Grapefruit where I’m from in Canada, it just feels like a picnic every time I drink one!

Are there any that you recommend?

You really should mix them yourself imo, the bottled ones tend to be pretty sweet, which diminishes the refreshment. Ratio 60:40 beer to lemonade at least. I just tend to use whatever is in the house, might be something like Bitburger, König Pilsner or some other regional pilsner... Beck's should be fine although it's not my favourite.
The pilsner's bitterness tends to fluctuate a lot throughout Germany and adjacent countries, in northern Germany they're way more bitter than the Austrian Stiegl you get, which makes them more refreshing to me in a Radler.

Sorry for the essay on beer and Biermischgetränke :D

And "libraried" as a hobby. That sounds cool though.
