Word Up: die Biermischgetränke
Biermischgetränke n, pl. Mixed drinks with beer
Bier-Cola is the kind of mixed drink a frat boy might dream up in the wee hours of the morning to maximize rent party keg profits. Yet, like Spezi, Mezzo-Mix and Cola-Orange, it has enough demand to be sold as a premix alongside such other beer-mix gems as Radler, which is beer with 7-Up. Considering how terrible Bier-Cola tastes, I am surprised that this one ever get off the ground. Even worse, it's not just a single terrible aberration of judgement - every region has their own special pet name for this type of mix, from Diesel to Dirty Water.
