| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 26, 2009 pretty average with a smoky hint. Pours a crystal clear golden color with a one finger thick off white head. Light lacing. Aroma is very light smoke and herbal hops. Flavor is lightly sweetened grain, a touch of smoke, and light herbal hops. Light to medium body. Not bad. Could use a touch more smoke for my liking. fly (1332), austin, Tejas, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 25, 2009 Like simple lager, but with SMOKE! It’s magic. My son likes it, a few others like it. I don’t despise it nor think it’s terrible, but unlike the great German varieties, it has such a simplistic malt structure that it feels like the smoke is hiding the beer rather than complimenting it.
Possibly good beer to cook with? hank27 (1), Iowa, USA does not count | 0.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/20 | Jul 23, 2009 another shiner crappy beer. i said to myself..........self i will kick your but if you ever buy anything from Shiner.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 18, 2009 Draft ar Risque Cafe. Pours golden orange with a white head. Aroma is of malt, smoke, grain, and bread. Not as smoky in the aroma as I thought it would be. Taste is of citrus, grain, smoked ham, and a little bit of wood. The smoke flavors seem to blend in and not really take control like you’d expect a smoked beer to. Very bready malt taste under all the smoke and grain. Mouthfeel was very gritty. Slight lingering burnt citrus taste. Eh SudsMcDuff (1694), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston, Texas, USA

peanut the cat is a jerk!
aroma of light pancake with syrup, old cured ham, and old corn burlap sack ..
