Clear amber brown colour, small foamy off-white head, dissipating quickly, minimal lacing. Aroma roasted malts, caramal, candy sugar. Taste medium sweet and slightly bitter, malty, roasty, caramel. Sweetbitter aftertaste, burnt caramel, earthy notes, medium body, watery to oily texture, soft carbonation, overall not bad but I wouldn't call it a bock.

355ml bottle. Clear, mahogany colour with average, foamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Grainy, bready, toasty malty aroma, a touch of caramel, malt lozenge, earthy, leafy hoppy overtones with a touch of silage. Taste is slightly sweet, toasty and caramel malty, a touch of malt lozenge, grassy, leafy, minimally bitter hoppy overtones; slightly watery.

Draft at Salud. Hazy to cloudy yellow color. Peach skin aroma. Taste is lightly earthy peach. Works for me.

Crisp golden coloured body with a light copper glow and a thinnish, two centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of sour funk, a touch of citrus, some light bananas and wheat and a dose of grain. Light-bodied; Tart grapes and citrus up front with some mellow grass and hay along with a fairly subtle fruit sweetness and a dose of earth all noticeable, but the tart citrus flavours are the strongest Aftertaste shows the dry grass and hay flavours throughout with a bit of the funky yeast, some mild malts and a bit more of the tart flavours to finish it all off. Overall, a surprisingly decent berliner weisse with some good flavours, but not enough complexity or pungency to rival the good beers out there, but this was fairly good, especially for a Shiner beer! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Shopper’s Food Warehouse in Alexandria, Virginia on 21-June-2017 for US$1,25 sampled in my hotel room in Durham, North Carolina after seeing the eclipse on 21-August-2017.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy bright golden color with a huge foamy orange-white head that lingered and left incredible lacing. The aroma was faint fruity and citric hops. The flavor was bitter with leafy fruity hops, a bit of caramel and tobacco. Medium length hoppy finish. Medium body. Ok.

12 ounce bottle into lager glass, best before 6/5/2017. Pours crystal clear pale golden/yellow color with a 1 finger foamy and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin lace cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings down the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of cracker, lightly toasted biscuit, light honey/pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance of pale malt and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of cracker, lightly toasted biscuit, light honey/pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, biscuit, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice robustness and balance of pale malt and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance. Moderately increasing dryness from bitterness and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and light body; with a very smooth, crisp, fairly bready/grainy, and lightly sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with zero yeast notes present. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.2%. Overall this is a nice light pale lager. All around good robustness and balance of pale malt and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Surprisingly flavorful for the ABV and 99 calories. Clean pilsner malt flavor with nice balancing hop presence. A nicely enjoyable offering.
