About Radler
Radler is a traditional German beverage, first created in the early 20th century. It is a mix of beer (typically light lager) and a non-alcoholic, citrus-flavored soda or lemonade, resulting in a low-alcohol, refreshing drink. A typical serving of Radler has minimal protein and fat, is primarily composed of carbohydrates, and is low in calories (approximately 36 kcal per 100 ml). While it has trace amounts of calcium and iron, it is not a significant source of key vitamins or minerals. Radler is celebrated as a summer drink due to its light, crisp taste and hydrating qualities.
Health Benefits
- Low calorie count (36 kcal per 100 ml), making it a lighter option compared to standard beer.
- Hydrating properties due to its composition of over 90% water combined with lemonade or soda.
- Contains trace amounts of calcium (3 mg per 100 ml), which contributes to bone health.
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
Store Radler in a cool, dark place or refrigerate to maintain its refreshing quality. Consume promptly after opening for the best flavor.

Can I drink Radler on a keto diet?
Radler is not ideal for a keto diet due to its carbohydrate content of 3 grams per 100 ml. Since keto diets typically require minimizing carbs to about 20-50 grams per day, consuming Radler could quickly use up your daily carb allowance.
