Shiner Bock: Review

Shiner Family reunion
Spoetzl Brewery
Shiner, Texas, USA
Six different 12oz beers from the Spoetzl Brewery
Bock, Black Lager, Blonde, Hefeweizen, Kosmos Reserve, Brewer’s Pride – Old-Time Alt
$8.99 a six pack

Shiner Bock
4.4% abv

Appearance: used penny copper color with a thin head that just becomes a thin rim around the glass. 

Aroma: clean, uneventful, could be malty sweet

Flavors and Mouthfeel: low to low-moderate carbonation with a light fizzy feel on the palate, a balanced bock with a lightly sweet and lightly hopped delivery that leaves you with a lightly flavored beer.  There is some kind of roasted malt and some kind of earthy caramel with a slight bitter note swirling around.  Dry aftertaste. 

My Strength Rating: 4
