Handwritten notes: Why do I like this beer? I can't really say. It leaves spotty yeast-marks at the bottom of my glass. It refreshes like a tall glass of lemonade after mowing the lawn. It's definitely one of the best hefe's I've ever had. It doesn't taste like chewed up wheat, it doesn't punch you in the junk with unnecessary flavours. It is neither over-achiever, nor under-achiever. It simply is. Wow. I've never done a Shiner beer before, and I can't wait to see what else these fools have up their sleeves. Bra-frickin-vo.
