’Tis the Season for Cheer.
Happy Holidays from the "Little Brewery" in Shiner, TX. We hope you enjoy your Shiner Cheer, an Old World Dunkelweizen brewed with Texas peaches and roasted pecans. The malty flavors of this dark wheat ale are enhanced through the use of malted barley and wheat. And Kräusening ensures a smoothness that makes the subtle peach and pecan flavors all the more satisfying. May your days be merry and bright and your Shiner be cold.

From a 12 oz bottle at home. Pours a deep reddish brown with q quickly disappearing off white head. Distinct peachy aroma. Peach cobbler flavor. Surprisingly tasty.

Bottle. Sweet, fruity fresh strawberry aroma. I know they say they make it with peaches, but I smell strawberry. Clear copper with a moderate beige head. Sweet strawberry/peach, caramel malt flavor with a light nutty bitter finish. Light to medium body, soft carbonation. Much better than I was expecting, and even a little surprising.

Bottle, pours amber/orange with a medium tan head and medium staying power with some lacing. Aroma is malty with some sweetness and fruitiness. Taste is also of roasted malt, with a sweetness/fruitiness that I could not identify as peach if I wasn’t reading the bottle. Slightly bad aftertaste, minimal hop presence. An OK beer, but nothing special.

bottle - Pours clear auburn with a very peachy aroma. The peaches really come through in the sweet, malty flavor too. I don’t pick up much else. It’s light to medium bodied and drinkable enough if not terribly inspiring.

Bottle: Pours a translucent bronze color with very little head. Peches and pecans? Really? The aroma reminds me of dried apricots, sweet and sticky, but dry. Fruity taste and a mild grassey wheat finish. Fruitness really stays along the entire time, but I’d swear its apricots not peaches. Fun session brew.

12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into a shaker. Pours brown with minimal head. Aroma of spiced peaches and caramel malt. Taste is light sweet. Cinnamon, peach and caramel. Light bodied with a somewhat sticky texture. Lively carbonation and a decently long finish. Overall, not bad. Not exactly my style but, as with all Shiner beers, a good intro to craft.
