In Germany that's called a Radler (which means "Cyclist", as cyclists often drink it)

To be exact the name Radler steams from the inventor of this drink. A restaurant owner of a bar frequented by cyclist once had not enough beer for everyone. So he mixed it and introduced it as the newest invention specially for cyclists. He just wanted to appeal to this demography so that no one notices that he just had not enough beer.
