This rare and delicious style of beer is referred to in Germany as Schwargbien as black beer. Every drop of Shiner is brewed in Shiner. This handcrafted Bohemian black beauty is brewed with select roasted malts and imported hops. Est. 1909. Spread cheer with Shiner beer! Don't be afraid of the dark. Here in Shiner, Texas (pop. 2,070), we've been handcrafting beer since 1909. The passion of our original brewmaster, Kosmos Spoetzl, continues to inspire our efforts today. First brewed to commemorate our 97th anniversary, this Bohemian Black Lager remains true to the old-world heritage of the German and Czech immigrants who settled Shiner. Imported Czech Saaz and Styrian hops, and select roasted malts make this Schwarzbier our darkest brew yet. - Prostit!
