Week: 3
Category: Black Beer
Beer: Shiner Bohemian Black Lager
Brewer: Spoetzl Brewing Company
Style: Schwarzbier
Appearance: Dark with a thin tan head that quickly vanished leaving a slight lacing.
Smell: Roasted malts, carmel and hints of coffee.
Taste: Initial notes of malts, bitter dark chocolate and carmel, yet remarkably crisp
Mouthfeel: Noticeably light and dry, yet carbonation keeps things lively.
Drinkability: Seriously a session beer if you enjoy the dark varieties.
Rating: Smooth drinkable and relatively inexpensive and available. This beer is not loaded with complexities, yet there is still enough going on here to enjoy a few of these brews with some friends. This beer won't make my favorite list, yet I will return to this black lager.
