Shiner Sea Salt & Lime Summer Lager

Shiner beers come from the Spoetzel Brewery in Shiner, Texas (pop. 2,070). This is a summer seasonal 4.0% ABV lager with lime and salt.

The beer pours a hazy golden and straw. There is an inch of white, fizzing, foamy head. The aroma is tangy, salt and lime over a bready malt base. The taste follows the aromas, tangy and bitter lime, a touch of salt, over toasted malt. The beer drinks smooth and easy. You'd do better to take a full-flavored lager, and do it yourself with a dash of salt and squeeze of lime; it would be fresher and taste better.
