Beer drinkers from Texas beware...

For those of you that want cheap Shiner - and who doesn't? - keep an eye out at your local grocery store (HEB here in ATX) for the once-a-summer blowout. Usually sometime in June for about three days (each of the past three years) I've found Shiner for $6.99/12pk cans

Because of that I had to kick back a six pack of Black Lager last weekend.

Ever tried their Frost (seasonal, December)? Very good as well.

Zeigenbock is made by Anheuser Busch in their Houston,TX brewery.

It's always driven me crazy that they charge "import" prices on Shiner, when it is made just hours away.

I've actually never had Ziegenbock, but I am a loyal Shiner drinker. Their seasonal and specialty beers are the best!

i love shiner but that ruby red is blech...... it took everything in me to finish off that six pack. I stay away from their seasonal stuff and stick to the bock.
