Traditional Shandy vs Kölsch (Cologne's Pale Ale)

Both glasses start with chilled beer, but they take it in opposite directions. The Traditional Shandy cuts a crisp lager or pale ale with fizzy lemonade, usually about two or three parts beer to one, for a sweeter, lighter, sparkling drink you can adjust to taste. Kölsch is beer alone, served at 7-9°C so its subtle fruitiness and crispness shine, and poured slowly into a slender Stange to build a dense, creamy white head. One is a mixed refresher; the other showcases the beer itself.
