Rave - Shiner not to be out done by Real Ale

[AustinN4]

Shiner now has a sample pack also. Saw it at HEB this afternoon for the first time.
I hope this catches on more as it is a great way to try different beers that you might/would not buy a full pack of otherwise.

I tried finding in on Shiner's web site so I could post a photo of list the beers in it but couldn't find it.

Here is a different Real Ale sampler from what I have seen in HEB:

Found a description of the Shiner sample pack at Target of all places, but HEB carries it: https://www.target.com/p/shiner-174-family-reunion-variety-pack-6pk-12oz-bottles/-/A-47136769?ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&AFID=google_pla_df&fndsrc=tgtao&CPNG=PLA_Grocery+Essentials+Shopping_Local&adgroup=SC_Grocery&LID=700000001170770pgs&network=g&device=c&location=9028322&ds_rl=1246978&ds_rl=1247077&ds_rl=1246978&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIhcPF28Kv4AIVS7jACh3BoAUxEAQYASABEgKvkvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

AustinN4,

Great info, thanks!

The family reunion has been around for a long time.

The Kosmos is pretty decent.

So have I, but I saw it for the first time today.

The Shiner Family Reunion sampler has been around for quite a bit, but after the novelty wore off, I'm wishing I could get sixpacks of their Premium Lager all the time.

While I am reading about you guys berating me for not knowing the Family Reunion has been around a long time, I am drinking a Deschutes Black Butte Porter.

Does it taste more like socialism or unwashed hippies?

Hope their winter hare ale ain’t in it. Snagged a batch of that a few years ago. That stuff is nasty.

In my opinion, and that of a lot of other people's opinions, Deschutes Black Butte Porter is one of, if not the best, porters brewed in the US.

You can't make me drink Shiner anything . . . not even at a reunion. :doh: And yeah, that Black Butte Porter is good.

Shiner Ruby Redbird is the only one that does not give me a headache.

Before I gave up beer, Shiner Light Blonde was pretty much all I drank in the summer.

I like it too plus the Shiner Sea Salt & Lime but don't care about the fruity flavors they put out occasionally.
