Shiner Bock

Dug · March 5, 2008

Ahhhh Shiner Bock.  A glorious bock beer.  Shiner is brought to us from a town of just over 2000 people by the same name.  A fine beer that has many pros and few cons.

Pros: Not too dark, not too light.  Not too bitter, not too smooth.  Full flavor but not overwhelming.

Cons: Must be cold... for my liking, at least.  Reminds me too much of Amber Bock... a beer that I had at my bachelor party nearly 10 years ago and still have nightmares about...

Overall, Shiner Bock is a fine beer.  One that is just as good on draught as it is in the bottle or in a mug.  My buddy MFPC also tells us that it is a fine beer to boil bratwurst in, but I haven't tried it yet... maybe this summer.
