Spoetzl Brewery - Shiner Oktoberfest 2011!

Shiner Oktoberfest
A big thank you to Jimmy Mauric, Master Brewer at the Spoetzl Brewery for sending along this great package of Shiner Oktoberfest samples for us to try.  Jimmy sent up a sample pack back in April and another package of Shiner Ruby Redbird (perhaps my favorite Shiner brew)…so it was very exciting to get a chance to taste an early sample of Shiner’s classic Oktoberfest.  This is a classic and hearty Oktoberfest brew….lots of rich malty character and just the right touch of Hallertau Hersbrucker hops.  The color is a wonderful dark amber accompanied by great mouth feel and satisfying body.  It’s a relatively mild ABV coming in at 4.2%…so with the moderate 13IBU hop finish and 116 calorie content, you can certainly drink more than one.  Thanks Jimmy!
