Jun 30, 2008 Beer is very watery looking with a very thin head. On the nose you can smell malt and hops. Flavor is unimpressive, but it does fall in line with other helles from the states. Better the a lot of beer, but not Shiners best effort.

Jun 28, 2008 Bottle. For aroma mostly malted grains like the Shiner Spezial Leicht. This one did have a sweet fruity presence. Gold body with white head and some good carbination bubble action inside the pint glass. Flavor of sweet malts and light fruit mixed in. Palatable beer.

Jun 25, 2008 Another hum-drum offering from Spoetzl. Light wheaty, malty taste with little complexity. Light yellow color with much carbonation. Not bad, but not worth writing home about either.

Jun 18, 2008 Bottle from Total Wine and More (Roseville). Slightly brassy gold color with a fizzy white head that rapidly declined. Smells of grain and grassy hop. A bit thin in body with fizzy carbonation. The flavor is lightly bready with not all that much noble hop. Finishes ok. Fits the style. Pair it with hot dogs.

Jun 7, 2008 Bottle. Poured a brilliant, crystal clear gold with a minimal white head that didn’t last. No real lacing to speak of. Bready, slightly soapy aroma. Slightly, sweet, biscuity flavor. Could be slightly better balanced with hop bitterness. Not a bad session beer though.
