Dec 15, 2007 Amber color with a small head. Tangy malt aroma with an all malt taste and some hints of coloa. Crisp finish. This is the Pyramid Hefe of Texas as far as popularity goes. It is the token "micro."

Apr 12, 2008 Pour was a clear brown with lighter copper notes. Little if any head, mostly just off-white bubbles spinning atop the beer. The aroma was malt with light hints of spice. Some bitter yeastiness. The flavor was lightly roasted malt and spice, all cut with an unpleasant bitterness. Lots of carbonation and a thin mouthfeel. Just barely a step beyond a BMC product. Meh.

Sep 8, 2007 Pours and dark amber with very little head. Nose is bland and barely there. Flavor is some what sweet with a slight hop edge - though uninspiring. Mouthfeel is pretty good with a slight froth to it. For some people I know this is a popular session beer, but this might be the last time I down it. No real redeeming qualities.

Nov 20, 2009 Pours clear copper color with minimal off white head that dissipates quickly. Malty aroma. Swet caramel malt flavor. Medium body with average carbonation. Easy drinking and unoffensive.

Jun 22, 2002 I drank a whole bunch of this on tap last night, it’s not great but it was better than anything else that they had at the bar.

Sep 25, 2006 Fizzy head, not particularly good. The Shiner beers have not impressed. Time to go watch some football with something else in the beer hand.

Jan 28, 2007 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.

Jun 1, 2007 It had been perhaps 10 years since I last had this beer...which was a few years before I knew anything about beer. And while it was once a trade-up for me, it is no more. This bock is more like a mainstream lager than any other bock I’ve tasted. Aroma of this beer was of corn rather than malt, and its appearance was a pleasing clear red-brown with a minimal amount of head. Flavor was pretty lack-luster...not as corn-y as the aroma, but still not very malty for a bock. Mouthfeel was unremarkable, but I have a hard time imagining drinking more than 2-3 of these...not because they were flavored extremely strongly or because it is high in alcohol, but just because drinking it kind of made me want something else.
