Tesco and Asda shoppers go wild for retro 70s drink back on shelves that’s ‘nectar of the summer God’s’
SHOPPERS are going wild for a retro 70’s drink which has made its way back onto shop shelves.
Heineken announced last month it was bringing back Foster's Proper Shandy.
The drink is described as a well-balanced shandy with zesty and fruity lemon notes, followed by a smooth beer aftertaste.
The drink has 3% ABV which is ideal if you're looking to moderate your drinking.
The news was shared in the Food Finds UK Official group on Facebook, the post has received over 5,000 likes and comments.
One user said: “I got some last week and it was pretty nice.”
Another described the drink as: “Nectar of the summer Gods.”
“Gotta try this,” said a third user.
Someone else said: “Love a shandy,”
“Saves me making it,” said a fourth viewer.
The alcohol maker said it intended to give fans a quality shandy to enjoy at home that breaks away from their classic lager range.
The last time fans saw a drink like this it was the 3% ABV Radler cut with lemon in 2013 but it was discontinued in 2020.
We also saw Heinken Silver at 4% ABV which was aimed at young lightweight drinkers.
You can pick up a pack of 10, 440ml cans in Asda for £9.25 or grab a pack of four in Tesco for £3.75.
However, Morrisons has the 10 pack the cheapest as it’s going for £6.99 online.
Bear in mind prices can vary from store to store so it's worth shopping around.
