Spoetzl Brewery (Shiner)

Shiner, TX

Shiner 101 Czech Style Pilsner
Pilsner - 4.6% ABV
Pete
     This is a solid, smooth, easy to drink pils. Not a ton of flavor, but it's not meant to have a ton of flavor. 

Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's

Shiner Bock
Bock - 4.4% ABV
Pete
     This is a pretty good beer. It has some good sweetness to it going down and a very clean finish.

Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's

Shiner Bohemian Black Lager
Dark Lager - 4.9% ABV
Pete
     This is a pretty solid beer. It has the drinkability of a European lager, plus some nice dark malty flavors. The first sip was pretty bland for me, but it grew on me as it went down and those malts kicked in.

Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's

Shiner Kosmos Reserve
Lager - 4.98% ABV
Pete
     I can't figure out this beer. When you take a sip, it feels like a bunch of flavor is about to hit you, but it just never shows up. It's a bit disappointing.

Shiner Premium Beer
Golden Lager - 4.5% ABV
Pete
     This one looks and tastes like a crappy light beer. Skip it.

Shiner Ruby Redbird
Fruit Beer - 4.01% ABV
Pete
     I don't taste grapefruit at all in this beer, but I sure do taste ginger. It is more ginger-y than ginger ale for sure. It is incredibly easy to drink, and quite good if you like ginger.

Shiner Sea Salt & Lime
Light Lager - 4% ABV
Pete
     Would be the ideal drink to chase a shot of tequila with. Hint of lime, easy drinking, not much flavor. Probably better options if you're not doing the tequila with it, but to each their own.

Shiner White Wing
Belgian Witbier - 4.7% ABV
Pete
     This is a pretty solid wit. It's more flavorful than a Blue Moon, but not nearly as much as, say Allagash. Still, quite good.

Shiner Wild Hare
Pale Ale - 5.5% ABV
Pete
     This is a pretty tasteless pale ale. Nothing terrible about it, but no taste.
