Shiner Bock
Brewed in Shiner, TX USA bought and drunk at Pearland Seafood, Pearland, Tx after exercising and before spending the night at the house in Pearland.
The Restaurant was empty. We were the only customers. The menu was a strange mixture of deep fried fish of varous types plus Thai dishes plus grilled seafood dinners. We started with spring rolls containing lettuce and boiled shrimp which were quite good. Patri ate grilled salmon with a steamed veggie medley and wild rice and said it was good and I had deep fried shrimp and fries which was not so good. The shrimp had been butterflied, then battered. And deep fried and the batter overwhelmed the very thin shrimp.
But, to the beer. The bottle says "small town, small brewery. Every drop of Shiner beer is brewed right here in Shiner, Texas (pop 2070) by a handful of local craftsmen who take pride in our little brewery and our classic Shiner Bock, first brewed in 1913 this lightly hopped, American style bock has a clean flavor and a slightly sweet finish. We hope you enjoy drinking it as much as we enjoyed making it. Prost.
Bock beer combines old world Bavarian heritage with Americsn handcraft brewing for a ppth, delightfully drinkable dark beet. Handcrafted in the same brewery where it was first made back in 1913, this gently hopped, medium brown brew is the pride of Shiner, Texas."
I could not agree more. I like this beer, it tastes as described and is a very pleasant accompanied by all sorts of fried food or Tex-Mex.
