To answer your question about "white" beer, you are probably
referring to Weissbier.  This is not white beer, but
wheat beer, i.e. beer made from wheat.
It is a very refreshing summer drink, and often
taken with a slice of lemon floating in it.
There are several imported German brands of weissbier available
locall (NJ).
A weissbier premixed with lemon is also available (Berliner),
but this almost tastes like lemonade. The regular weissbier
is somewhat sweeter than regular beer.
By the way, does anyone remember Hop'n'gator.
This was available in the early 70's, and was a citrus
flavored beer. The name was probably chosen to make a
reference to Gatorade(TM).
