When it comes to Radler/Shandy type drinks, I'm usually not a big fan. However, this offering from Pelforth, a subsidiary of Heineken, hits the spot. The spring is bringing with it plenty of sun, and so darker beers just won't do for now. Upon opening this can and pouring, I was immediately hit with a light and very spritzy carbonation, hints of lemon and malty citrus. The beer is very "fruity" in taste, has a light head and pours a very clouded yellow. It is very refreshing and one or two should hit the spot. This is a must try, especially with the days becoming hotter and hotter, and this beer should please anyone who likes beer.
Fun fact: Pelforth is a French brewery founded in 1914 in Mons-en-Barœul by three Lillois brewers. It was originally called Pelican, after a dance popular at the time. Production was stopped during World War II, restarting in 1950. The brewery name was changed in 1972 to Pelforth. It was bought by Français de Brasserie in 1986, which was acquired by Heineken International in 1988.
