Shiner Smokehaus


☺☺☺½

Brewery: Spoetzl Brewery; Shiner, TX
Brew: Shiner Smokehaus
Pour: Nice head! Small bubbles, but not too thick. Foam disappears, but not too quickly. No lace on the glass.
Appearance: Golden amber colour.
Aroma: Instantly hoppy. A little bit of smoke, just like it says on the bottle.
First sip: Smooth and delicate. A little tangy. Definitely smoky, like I'm sitting next to a barbeque pit.
Mouthfeel: As expected for a lager. Very nice, not too watery.
Finish: Clean finish. A little hoppy aftertaste, but not much else.
Notes: I like it! And I'm not even particularly fond of lagers. It's not the most amazing brew I've ever had (far from that, sorry Shiner), but it's definitely worth note.
