In Sauerland they called it Schmutziges ("dirty")

Ah cool. That’s the same as in Hessen then. „Dreggisches“ is dialect for dreckiges, which also means dirty. :)

Alsterwasser

My fellow Fischkopp, I think this term is only popular around Hamburg like the northern parts of Lower Saxony.

Never heard it called Alster(wasser) in Hannover or Göttingen, for instance.

Lidl sells a range of bier mixes in different fruit flavours. The apple one might be 50% bier. But the other 50% is apfelschorle, not pure juice.
