New Beer Blog Shiner Wicked Ram IPA

image

In this beer blog, we are going to get into a new brew from Shiner Brewery.  The little brewery can do it.  It is their Wicked Ram IPA.  This is the first IPA that is being made by a traditional German brewery.   If you read my earlier beer blog posts on their beers, you know the history of this Texas craft brewery.  If you have not, please, read them to get to know this craft brewery.  Let us get into this IPA.

It has a golden to light copper color with a white constant head. The aroma has a piney like notes. The taste has a earthy to piney notes with a dry hop bitter aftertaste. It is pretty drinkable beer.

Closing, I am a pretty big fan of this craft brewery.  I love the rich history of Shiner.  It is in a little town and this little brewery in the middle of it.  I do not understand why people do not like this brewery in Michigan.  This is a great brewery.  I was happy a few years back that they were going to get into the ale market.  I was pretty excited to see them making an IPA.  I like it but it is a nice beginner IPA. Asides that, a brewery that was making all lagers did a great job on their first IPA.  I will be adding this to my IPA rotation.  I highly recommend this beer.  Go get some!  Drink it!  Enjoy it!  Metal it!  \m/

Cheers!

New Beer Blog Shiner Bock

In this beer blog, we are going to sample the flagship from Shiner.  It is their Bock.  If you read my earlier beer blog posts on their beers, you know the history of this Texas base craft brewery.  If you have not, please, read them to get to know this American classic craft brewery.  Let us get into this bock.

It is not a see through beer. It has a reddish-brown color without a head. The aroma is pretty faded. It is hard to pick up but I believe it is a sweet malty notes. The taste of this medium body has a power of malt but it has some sweet malty notes with hints of nutty notes. The aftertaste has a sweet malty dry finish. It is a drinkable beer.

Here is a description from the beer bottle:

Bock Beer combines old world bavarian heritage with American handcraft brewing for a smooth, delightfully drinkable dark beer.

Handcrafted in this same brewery where it was first made back in 1913, this genty hopped medium brown brew is the pride of Shiner, Texas.

Ending, this is an American classic brew.  I do not know anyone that does not like this brew. This brew has everything.  It is drinkable and has some flavor.  It is not really missing much.  I love it. I just wish it was a little bit bigger here in Michigan.  I normally go out of my way to get to this beer during football season.  I highly recommend this beer.  Go get some!  Drink it!  Enjoy it!  Metal it!  \m/

Cheers!

In this beer blog, we are going to get into another brew from Wolverine Brewery.  It is their Predator.  If you read my earlier beer blog posts on their beers, you know the history of this Lager craft brewery.  If you have not, please, read them to get to know this Michigan craft brewery.  Let us get into this beer.

It has dark brown or dark amber color without a head. The smell has a sweet malty with hints of chocolate and slight toffee. The taste has a sweet malty with malty, toffee, and candy like aftertaste. It is a pretty drinkable beer.

Here is a their website and twitter addresses:

Closing, this craft brewery knows how to brew Lagers.  I would hope so because that is all they brew is Lagers.  I never had a bad beer from this craft brewery.  There is several Doppelbocks on the market.  This is a nice balance to this beer and it is not totally in your face.  There is some nice tasting notes and each sip you will get some new in this brew.  They did a great brew.  This is a great beer.  I recommend this beer.  Go get some!  Drink it!  Enjoy it!  Metal it!  \m/

Cheers!

In closing, I am very proud of Shiner Brewery.  When I was down there, they were getting ready to open their Ale Brew House.  This brewery has come a long way in 100 years.  Happy Birthday, Shiner!  This is their first stout and their new winter seasonal.  I will have to say it is not disappointing.  I love it. It is like a chocolate cake taste but in liquid form.  It has a nice aroma and taste profile.  There is nothing more to say but this is an awesome beer.  I highly recommend this beer.  Go get some!  Drink it!  Enjoy it!  Metal it!  \m/
