Label Reads: “Handcrafted with small-town pride in Shiner, Texas. Since 1909, the Little Brewery has been the source of every drop of Shiner Beer. We hope you enjoy this beer with the same passion that went into brewing it. Prosit! Munich malt and select hops are carefully chosen to brew this full-flavored amber light beer. Brewed in small batches, Shiner Light doesn't look like ordinary light beer, or taste like it either. Since 1909 our brewery, our pride. Here in Shiner, Texas (Pop. 2,070) we've been handcrafting beer for nearly a century. All this experience went into brewing a full-flavored light beer our local folks could call their own. In fact, every bottle of Shiner Light is signed by a citizen to certify that only this light beer is good enough to carry the Shiner name. Lynda Hybner (*fake signature*)”

Handwritten notes: This is a carbonated barley soda. After all that talk, after all that bullshit on the label... you... you mean to say you've safeguarded this beer by having a "citizen" autograph the bottle to prevent crap beer fraud? Maybe Miller High Life Lite should have protected their own stock as closely when you stole it and dumped it into your own bottles. C'mon now.
