Owl’s Brew Radler Wicked Watermelon

Earlier this year I wrote a story about Owl’s Brew cocktail mixers. The company had sent me a few bottles of its tea-based mixers that I took to a party. Suggested alcohol to mix with them included tequila, vodka, and beer. The beer mix, something we tried a few days later, was actually pretty tasty — and I’m typically pretty down in most “beer cocktails.”
Remembering that experience, I was excited to try the company’s newest offering: Radlers. Essentially a canned version, to some extent, of what you can do with the cocktail mixer and your own beer, the company is now selling a line of Radlers ranging from Wicked Watermelon, a wheat beer with white tea and fruit juices to Short and Stout, a stout with chai tea, pineapple juice, and coconut water that will be available seasonally October-March.
I have a handful of these of hand, but decided to kick off my sampling with Wicked Watermelon. Clocking in at just 3.8%, this is a beer made for summer. Literally. It’s written on the can.
“We imagined people imbibing our summer breeze of a beverage. We thought of outdoor concerts…day on boats… and all those winery hours when all you want is to sip some sunshine.”
