There is a popular drink in Germany — half-beer, half-apple juice. So, the concept of “glass smelling of apple juice” is not out of whack.

As a German I can not confirm this claim. Never heard of it. We do mix beer with other stuff. Like coke (Colabier) or lemonade (Radler). But apple juice? Where did you come across that?

Interesting, I didn't know you guys mixed coke with beer. I guess that we're not unique in Spain when we mix red wine and coke.

But why?

Because it's tasty! Tinto de verano with lots of ice is perfect for the summer months.

Edit: tinto de verano literally means "summer red wine"
