Sep 29, 2008 Pours a dark brown with light brown head. Sweet caramel and malt aromas with hints of dark fruit and brown bread. Light medium mouthfeel with good carbonation. Sweet taste reminiscent of dark fruit and pumpernickle bread with delicate hop finish and lingering suggestions of bitter chocolate and coffee. Light interpretation of a schwarzbier, but nontheless enjoyable and appetizing, great session beer. Try with smoked sasauge or spicy, smoky barbeque.

Sep 17, 2008 12oz. Bottle. Typical of Shiner, 97 is a consistent and tasty everyday beer. It may be a little light for a Black Lager, but the dark roasted flavor in the beginning with a little sweet overtone make it acceptable for the price.
