Commercial Description:
Shiner 100 Commemorator is a rich and robust brew that is a fitting tribute to our legacy of 100 years of handcrafting stylish and flavorful beers. Commemorator is a bold style that would have been very familiar to Kosmos. One of the highlights of the Bavarian brewing year is the rollout of strong beer or starkbier, developed by monks as “liquid bread” to sustain them through the Lenten season. Commemorator is brewed in that Old-World tradition and embodies the German-Czech heritage Shiner has proudly stood for since 1909. This 17 % original extract dark lager is a blend of two row Munich and Caramel 60 malt mildly spiced with Bavarian Hallertau Tradition and Spalter Select hops to allow the toasted caramel flavor to predominate. Alcohol by Vol.: 6.7 % Original Gravity: 17.0 % Bitterness: 17 IBU Color: 30 SRM Real Degree of Fermentation: 60.7 %

Pours a rich amber. Flavor is of caramel malt . Not too exciting though. Don’t have much to say. Have another? Yeah I can dig it.

Pours copper with a 2 finger beige head that has decent retention but fades to a skim that stays. Aroma is caramel, toast, dark fruits, honey, and some sweet bread notes. Flavor is grainy malt, toast, stale french bread, caramel planty hops a hint of grass and more alcohol than should come through. Finish is slightly metalic, herbal, and caramely. Palate is medium to thin a little slick and somewhat over carbonated. Overall this is a pretty weak doppelbock but it is drinkable and really cheap.

Poursa gorgeous ruby amber color with a bout a finger of white head. Aroma is roasted malt and a bit of hops. Flavor is kind of burnt and off with a real mule kick of bitterness on the back. May have to re-rate when I’m more prepared. Not very good.

Bottle. Pours a deep cherry wood color with no head and some flowing micro bubbles. Nose is malty with some caramel tone to it. Flavors are caramel malt but not all that flavorful. Fairly watered down. Ehh!

clear copper color, medium off white head, nice lacing. nose is airy malt. the flavor is malty, with musty notes being dominated by sweet ones. medium bodied, sweet finish. a better beer than i expected, but kind of light-weight. thanks to cornfield for the bottle.

Bottle: Pours a beautiful reddish brown, froth is light. Flavor: a proper mix of hopps and malt. Taste is very lively and the finish is long lasting with fruity flavors.
