Shiner's a-comin'! :D

(Actually, it's already there)

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>For years now we've been receiving calls, emails and letters from folks all across America thirstin' for some ice-cold Shiner beers. Especially from you guys out there in California!

We're excited to announce that starting Monday, March 6th Southern Californians will get their first shot at pickin' up some delicious Shiner Bock at their favorite waterin' hole or store! (Northern Californians shouldn't worry, we'll be shipping some your way as soon as we catch our breath.)[/quote]

Heehee...lucky me, when I was down in So Cal a couple weeks ago I found some Shiner!!! I was so excited I did the happy dance and had a grin on my face that looked like this... :D!! I even had to tell Dennis about it!

Now the agonizing wait for Shiner to get up here to NorCal!! :)

Oh, and btw....it is really yummy!!!

Shiner Bock, from the little Spoetzl brewery in Shiner, Texas.

I've been to "Mecca", boys! :)

Ummmmmm...Dennis....who you callin' a boy? :rolleyes:

Nice John Wayne impression, Bulldog!!! And yummy is only one of many words I could use to describe Shiner! Sorry, that was the "gal" side of Ottergal talking! ;)


Jeff...Don't worry...I'd be happy to drink a Shiner for you and let you know how great it is! Might need a couple though to really get my point across! ;)

Pssst...RWK....Otters are from Kali...that is another thing to like about it! :)

Ottergal,

Sorry, ma'am. ;) (fingers touch brim of Stetson.) Didn't know you were listenin'.

BTW, some funny things happened when we started to get females in the service - at least ....

Aw, nevermind. I'll wait for the August Meet.

If you ever are fortunate enough to be driving through Flatonia, Texas on I-10, you should exit there, and take HWY 95 south to the little brewery in Shiner. It is amazing. I've been about twenty times, 'cause they give out free beers after the tour. I went back before Shiner Bock was in full production. They only produced it in the Fall. When the Guy who owned Corona bought the Spoetzl brewery, they built on a whole new wing. I saw the keg room where precious Shiner Bock spills on the floor by the hundreds of gallons each day. If I only knew where the drain to that room ends! There are under forty people employed by the spoetzl brewery. Amazing that a brewery so small produces the nation's finest beer.

I picked up a 6'er tonite on my way home (sold at Von's Markets, Cali people)...am in the process of polishing off the first....mighty tasty! Another 2 shall follow in close order. Many thanks for the heads up, Bulldog.
I like it!

Otter....
107 today here, and yep, my AC is busted too. However, after quick-slamming I'm beginning not to care :D
