Legend of the drink "Radler"

The widespread legend that the shandy was invented in 1922 by the former landlord Franz Xaver Kugler has since turned out to be false. At that time, Kugler managed the Kugler Alm, named after him, which was mostly frequented by cyclists. According to the story, on a Saturday in June 1922 he ran out of beer due to the great demand . In his need, he mixed half the beer with lemonade and served it to his guests as a “Radlermaß”. In the literature, however, there is evidence that the Radlermaß was already known in 1912, probably as early as 1900. Accordingly, this legend is nothing more than a cleverly concocted story that should attract more guests to the Kugler Alm. It is currently assumed that the cycling measure was invented at the end of the 19th century in one of the mostly social democratic cycling clubs.
