About Shiner:

The Spoetzl Brewery was founded in Shiner, Texas (population 2,069), in 1909, by Czech and  German immigrants brewing beer with old-world traditions and recipes for Central Texas. Since then, the brewery has grown to be one of the largest independent craft brewers in the country with beers available in all 50 states and Mexico. To this day, every drop of the award-winning beer is brewed right in Shiner, TX, where it all started 115 years ago.
