It could depend on the style of the beer.



Though a cola pale sounds good in concept, something low abv and not malty.
Hmm. This needs some mulling over.

Putting things in beer is a thing all over Germany. I was quite partial to Fanta in wheat beer. But they do the full gamut of fruit juices in beer too (shandys).

German fanta is mostly real orange juice. It's not like the American poo poo.

Also, google 'spezi'. It's cola and orange mixed together that you buy in a bottle just like any other softdrink.

What? I'm in Germany and the Fanta I buy (i.e. the stuff that actually says Fanta on it) is exactly the same as "the American poo poo". They have carbonated orange juice drinks but they aren't called Fanta.

No it is not exactly the same at all. After water and sugar, the main ingredient is orange juice. Here is a photo I took on my last trip because it tasted like real oranges. American Fanta isn't using orange juice.



If you think it even tastes the same, then unfortunately your palate is hosed.

They both taste like orange soda. If you think they taste significantly differently your palate is being fooled by marketing.

Cola light tastes differently than diet coke too here but they are still very similar.

The standard real juice percentage is like 3 percent. It is different but you are blowing it out of proportion. In the end it's all flavored sugar water whose only good purpose is to mix with liquor.

Wikipedia posted:

Fanta (/ˈfɑːntə/ fahn-tə) is a global brand of fruit-flavored carbonated soft drinks created by The Coca-Cola Company. There are more than 100 flavors worldwide. The drink originated in Nazi Germany under trade embargo for Coca-Cola ingredients in 1940.

you won't see any indication of this on most labels as it's a byproduct of orange processing and therefore a natural product, labeling laws are really backwards.

You're referring to specific fruit 'juices' made and sold in the USA by a specific company. The EU has a completely different set of laws. If it's labelled 'orange juice' then it's orange juice.

This is old news. John McPhee wrote a really excellent book called Oranges in 1967 that describes the horrors of orange juice. It also contains more information about oranges than you probably care to have but god drat if it isn't fascinating.

This has to be an American thing right? :psyduck: Orange juice as in juice from oranges has plenty of flavour, at least here.


Also, "chemicals" are what's responsible for all taste so uh....?


e: I'm tired, forgive me. Just read the link and that's actually interesting. I guess it's basically lovely labeling then, where juice =/= juice.

Pulp or cells
The products obtained from the edible parts of fruit of the same species without removing the juice. Furthermore, for
citrus fruit, pulp or cells are the juice sacs obtained from the endocarp

All it's saying is you can add the pulp back lol

There's no pulp in European Fanta which looks and tastes different to American Fanta. Anyone that claims they are the same and taste the same have poo poo palates and eyesight.

No argument here! Endlessly yelping about soda is 100% sperging.

I've had Fanta in the USA, the UK, Egypt, the UAE, and Japan. While I cannot say for sure that it tastes significantly different, I guess it's possible?

Someone doesn't know what endocarp means. You should read the document you tried to use as a source a little more closely. I even quoted the definition of cell from it it for you.
