It has been rumored that Colt will be purchasing Shiner Bock and moveing the co. back north....to New York City....were shumer and MRs. H. Clinton are planning an all out assault on ill effects of drinking. Drinking and Driving, .....including the limit to One six pack a week and in months with six weeks only 4 six packs a month allowed...and this is for the children...they are considering a limit of 6 oz per bottle as who could need more than that...the tax will be increased to help pay for health care costs associated with drinking.....alert over....fubsy.
 
This is *really* cruel, fubsy.
I can just picture Dennis coming back after hiatus and trying to catch up. Post #226 is this one. Ouch! ;)

OK, I give in. Is Shiner Bock really as good as all ya'll say it is? I've seen it in the market, so I'll have to buy some, but you swear it's not some sissy-watered-downed 'merican beer?
 
Joseph - This is only my opinion. Shiner Bock is a good dark beer, very similar in taste to XX. It is worth getting a 6-pak or two to try out, you probably won't be sorry. But, for me I prefer Negra Modelo, it's smoother than Shiner.


(This post will self destruct in one day or when Dennis returns, whichever comes first.)
 
Rich,---if ya cant mess with your friends who can ya mess with..lol... ;)....uh, safely that is....:0.

Mal H, I never tried shiner but Ive had my share of negra modelo, a very good beer. Do you care much for the pilsners,,,like a bohemia?..I tend to like that one as well......fubsy.
 
Yep, fubsy, I like all of 'em. I'm no carnosewer of beers, but I do like the Modelo's, Especial y Negra in particular.
 
Fubsy,
If you like a pilsner, you may enjoy Shiner Blonde. I found the Bock to be good, but somewhat filling.

Got a chance to try both on a recent trip to Kansas City. Not bad for a bottled brew. Clearly ahead of most big name stuff.
 
DONT MESS WITH TEXAS!!!!!!!!!mf.....LOL

I was turned on to Shiner sitting in a 3rd floor beer garden on 6th street in Austin about 6 years ago. I've been a faithful follower every since. :D
 
Q: How do you tell the difference between Guiness and cough syrup?
A: With great difficulty.

Dos Equis and Shiner Bock are great. If you want a "heavy" Budweiser, try Bass pale ale.

But fubsy, we now know you're cruel, cruel, cruel!

:), Art
 
OH MY GOD!!! Next thing you know they will be talking about an import ban. :(

I seem to remember having a difficult time distinguising between Shiner Bock and used 10W-30 oil when I was a young fellow (13-14 years old) back in Tejas. The consistencies were very similar, as I recall.... :)

All,

I must say that it does my heart good to stumble across this thread as I have just returned from an all-too-brief trip to Houston (where I once spent the good parts of my youth!)for the wedding of two dear friends. Since the groom was originally from Westchester NY, many of his groomsmen (myself excluded) were also of the Yankee persuasion. Thus there was a great deal of explaining to be done in short order on the finer issues of Texan etiquette. We mutually agreed that the most appropriate venue for this endeavor was the noble shack on the side of the 59 freeway known Bubba's Buffalo Burgers. And the only cerebral lubricant applicable to the task was Shiner Bock . . . COLD Shiner Bock . . . buckets of it. Having timed our arrival with the passing of the 12:35 freight train (when the Choo Choo special drops the per bottle Shiner cost to $1) we proceeded quickly to the grindstone. Suffice it to say that, after a day and a half of the crash course, our New York brethren were instinctively reaching for the yellow labeled brown bottles whenever the option arose. Amazing how quickly we learn the important lessons! :D

I dont know about Shiner - as I dont drink - but today I did have a O'douls AMBER - and I found it to be pretty good for an NA Beer.

Hadn't had a real beer since 92.
 
gopher, I didnt know ya new my initials...lol..... ;)

Rae, I might try it...we've a seasonal brewery around here (down in tampa), that produces a beer called "ebor city", its only available for a short time, but man is it good. both light and dark....and they've a blend as well....

Art, cruel is nicer than somethings i remember hearing..lol....

George, I rarely drink, and those O'dools arent bad atall.....

Just a possibility of the future of the alcohol industry....fubsy.
 
RAE, is there such a thing as "Shiner Redhead"? Now there's a beer I would try.

Is Colt's also purchasing Pace picante sauce, I wonder? Get a rope...

Joseph,
C'mon over and have a few cool Shiner Bocks with Uncle Art, Gopher and me.

We have a spare bedroom called, "The Recovery Room!" Just put your keys there on the counter. You'll be all right, son.

It's so good to give a friend a Shiner! ;)

Bulldog! Naughty dog! (chuckle!) Look what you've done to Fubsy the Fireplug!

((((Tonight, Puppy, you get STEAK! :D ))))

Rosco, you dipstick! When Bulldog is through with you, you'll be bathing in the Hazzard Car Wash!

((((heh, heh, heh! Good dog! Good dog! ;)))))

MISter Locke,
Even little boys can appreciate a bit of Shiner Bock (yes, it IS legal!). Perhaps, sir, you were slow at developing? A "late bloomer", I believe it's called.

(After all, you DID leave Texas.... ;) )

Poor Fubsy.
He can't get a Quayle so he must take a Bush.
So instead of a Shiner, he must take a Busch!

(There now, you see? You're not being ignored. :D Oh yes, I *DID* catch your pot-stirrin' over on the Libertarian thread! ;) )

All,
My ISP and e-mail are experiencing great problems! Therefore I'm suffering TFL withdrawal pains. But, "I'll be back!"
