Summer Beer

[TacoMan13]

Haven't seen it posted here, but it's a delicious cold drink for a hot summer day...

( 1 )can of frozen lemonade
( 1 )equal part vodka ( use empty lemonade can )
( 4 )of your favorite beer/ale ( found best NOT to use lager or other dark brews, light brews/ales taste best )

combine the contents together in a large mixing bowl or deep pitcher, serve on the rocks and enjoy.

We like the lemonade version, but also enjoyed Blue Moon and frozen orange juice mixture as well.

Note of caution : ingesting multiple batches may decrease your motor skills, depleat your inhibitions, increase your tendencies to laugh, impregnate your wife/significant other, and revive your teenage "super powers"

We call that cocktail Strip and Go Naked. Refreshing and most people like them, but they can sneak up on you! And it's different from a summer shandy, which I don't care for. Because they're so easy to make, they are great pitcher drinks for entertaining a crowd.

No joke.. I COULD have slugged this stuff down for breakfast...LOL If I recall.. I saw some sliced oranges and raspberries floating around in the pitcher of YUM!

Sinfully deeeeeeelish!

Anytime can be cocktail hour, just byob! Heck of a drive for ya coming from Cali though 😄 😄
I was thinking Bud Lime since I dont care for it much as is, but with lemonade it would likely be pretty tasty. And thats the magical part with this concoction....cheap stuff tastes good when mixed and masked with lemonade.
Wondering if it would work with cider ales like Woodchuck or Redds and mixed equal vodka/apple juice?

TacoMan: What time is cocktail hour? I'll be right over.

BTW, I'm thinking you could hit the recipe with Bud Platnum 6% to get things going.

Go through ALL that? What's tough about it? Ya dump it all together and give it a stir.....done. Not to mention it only takes a few glasses of summer beer to ramp up your mood vs a half dozen or more Leinenkugel

Summer Beer is a nice change and refreshing on a hot day. I think I'll try it with raspberry lemonade sometime.

SWD: couldn't agree more!:):):)

Back in college we called this drink "Strip and Go Nakeds". The guys liked it because they were cheap and the girls liked them 🙂

I have to say.. I'm a light weight when it comes to much drinking, but someone served this concoction made with frozen "raspberry Lemonade" on our last camping trip (she used to be a bar tender) and it was beyond D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!

I don't like vodka, and as a rule lemonade gives me a gut ache. I do like a red beer here and there, but but BUTTTTTTTTTTTTT... when those ingredients are mixed together something magic happens! This mixture you posted I have had...and it is EXCELLENT!!

However, I think drinkikng more then 2 might be equivalent to anesthetic. 😛 😛 😛 😛 😛

I hear ya, I'm not a heavy drinker either and tend to limit myself to less than a 6pk at a time when I do partake. I enjoyed this stuff when I first heard about the recipe, so I figured I'd share with the masses....and it's a good way to make cheap vodka and cheap beer hide together behind a greatly flavored alcoholic mixed beverage.

I'm sorry but I fail to see the sense in adding more stuff to a good beer. Are your beers that bad that they need lemonade and vodka? :h :W

Not at all, in fact I've probably drank at least 100 brands/types in my life thus far. But, sometimes a fella just wants something a little different without going full ghey on wine coolers 😄
