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 caramel color with a medium head. The aroma is lots of apple cider and caramel. The flavor is more apple cider with a light roastiness and some defined alcohol. Not too bad.

Bottle ( 12oz ). Shared by garthicus with me and blankboy. Clear reddish amber with a small diminishing off-white foamy head. Juicy aroma, orange and cereal grain, some alcohol, a bit sweet. Taste of caramel malt and tangerines, surprisingly floral-bitter. Average-bodied, slick, slightly alcohol-dry in the finish, which comes very fast: crisp, simple, pretty decent, really, I was suprised!

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a bright red-brown color with a large brown head.The aroma was sour, tangy and very malty with a light vegetal undertone and a touch of vanilla. The flavor was very malty, rich and sweet with a nutty undertone adn light vegetal and fruity elements. the finish was long, tangy, fruity and malty. The body was full and somewhat creamy. Well done.

Sample at the Texas Beer & Brats tasting 10/11/2009. The beer is a clear reddish-amber color with a medium fluffy off-white head that dissipates steadily. The aroma is malty with touches of caramel. Medium body with flavors of toasted malt and caramel as well as mild hops. The finish is short and malty. Just average overall.
