Beer 286 - Shiner Light Blonde (3 stars out of 5)

Brewed and bottled by Shiner in Shiner, Texas. Dundi, at colleague and friend at ITW Global Brands gave me the beer. Ame, another colleague and friend at ITW GB provided the beer as a present from her boyfriend at the Shiner beer distributor, Houston Distributing. This beer is a new offering from Shiner

It is a lovely day today and I spent the latter part of the morning doing chores around town, including an oil change for the Saturn at Walmart TLE, shopping at Walmart, Lowes and Kroger before eating lunch with Patricia at home. Thus, it was a delight to drink a beer that was light, and easy to drink but still flavorful. The beer was a fine accompaniment to the steak and cheese melt pastry I had for lunch, helping to wash the toasted sandwich down.
