Shiner Bock

yup use to live in dallas and this was all over the place. being from chicago i am use to drinking stouts but dallas is short on those. this is a great alternative to a stout. pretty good tasting, pours a dark caramel color and has a chocolatly taste to it. try it!

Being from Texas, this is my normal drink to get drunk social beer, and for only .50 to 1$ more than generic domestic, its worth every penny. Pours amber brown with almost no head or lacing.

When in Texas.... we’ll leave it at that. It sure does look pretty in the glas. On tap at some forgettable cookie cutter res-tu-ran-te in Houston. Pretty tasteless but not bad on draft. Had two. I agree with the deep amber color and the smooth taste and bitterness (little of both). It was a good match for the well above average Bar-B-Que that is abundant in Houston. Very little head and sparse carbonation. Drinkable and good with dinner.

Poured quickly into a beer mug you can’t help smell a nice toasty, caramel aroma. Drinks easily with a medium body and a slight sweet- maltyness. Finishes quickly but leaves you wanting more. A very drinkable beer that pairs well with spicy or mexican food!

Pint at DFW - What the hell, I was stuck in a Texas airport for 4 hours, might as well have a Shiner. Aroma of stale malts, sweaty sock, alcohol and macro swill. Pours brown with a small bubbly head and no lacing. Flavor matches aroma with a touch of roastiness. As it warms it just gets worse and worse. I had to pound the last half. Palate is sticky and icky. After a while my palate started getting used to it and it became less offensive. That’s when I knew it was time to run!

Hard beer for me to rank as there are too many memories associated to this beer. Nice amber colour with a smallish head. Sweet malty smell permiates. Flavor is light and crisp (especially compared with the title and colour) with slight nuttiness that doesn’t linger. An easy drinkin beer that doesn’t leave you with much of an impression either way.

Pours a clear copper brown, next to no head, absolutely no lacing. Mild malt in the aroma, but nothing stands out. Well, how do I say this? It is pretty bland. There is a very mild caramel malt, which I suppose is balanced by an equally mild hopping. I don’t know - I can’t taste any hop character. A hint of caramel malt in the aftertaste. Smooth and light in the body, moderate carbonation.

Aroma of fruit and peanut butter. Poured a a nice ruby colour, with little to no head. The flavor is really lacking-really reminds of a brew from AB. This seemed like an over hyped beer, but I expected alot lower percentile
