Acquired in a Shiner Family six - pack $9.99. Poured into a Duvel Tulip A - Poured almost like a budweiser. Simple, not much happening. 2 finger head. Looks like a very basic pilsner. Very basic S - citrus, lemon-lime, pretty flat T - It’s a blonde for sure. It’s sort of pleasant but not my style.Not bad but not terribly great. M - lots of bubbles, smooth to go down O - Wouldn’t buy again but would order it on tap over other standard BMC offerings.

Harris Teeter, DC mixer sixer ($7): Pours a yellow with a white head. Aroma is grainy with a touch of hops. Taste is on the sweet side, although I can’t quite call it corny sweetness. Some hops are present. Generally crisp and refreshing and nothing really offensive. Not quite watery in feel either, although a preponderance of flavour is not a characteristic of this here beer.

12 ounce bottle from Harris Teeter Barracks Road Charlottesville, VA, opened 5/1/11. Pours a crystal clear golden color with a thin fizzy white head that quickly fades. Aroma of grassy and floral hops, grain and corn. The taste is corn, grain and a grassy hop finish. A bit on the thin side.

OK, Brian made me buy this one (for him). Extremely pale yellow, scant head. Aroma of wet dirty rags. Taste of bitter cardboard. it is what it is.

From a 12oz bottle from Pick’s Liquors poured into a shaker. Very light colored. Almost no head that dissipates quickly. Almost no aroma to speak of. Very faint smell of hops. Taste is very very light. Nothing distinct at all. Light bodied, thin texture, average carbonation. There is a faint taste of dirty socks. My least favorite of the Shiner brand. The only redemption is the 5.99 per six-pack price.

12oz bottle. Pale, filtered yellow tan. Thin, oily white head. Sweet, mellow, clean aroma. Straightforward Lager, with a slightly grainy mouthfeel. Clean and easy, with some faint soapy hop character. Some smooth Lager tones, but overall a little thin and boring.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a shaker. Pours pale straw in color with small white head that dissapates fast. Light aroma, very little lacing, and medium/high carbonation. Taste is nice light crisp refreshing malty pilsener, not much hops in the finish. Would be good for a session beer.

12 oz bottle. Pours a light yellow color with a small white head. Aroma is, well pretty mild, with touches of grains, hops, that’s about it. Light and refreshing.

Bottle. Pours a clear pale gold with a thin but large bubbly white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is a bit weak with notes of grassy and grain. Flavor is similar with a grassy finish.
