From the brewer

This crisp, bohemian-style lager was first brewed in Shiner way back in 1909. The early bottles of Premium proudly displayed a cotton ball on the label - a tribute to the hardworking Czech and German immigrants who farmed cotton around the region. After a long day in the fields these farmers often found a cold bottle of Shiner Premium waiting on a fence post, left there by our own Kosmos Spoetzl. It's no wonder that Premium soon became known as the local favorite, and now it's back. Reintroduce yourself to Shiner Premium - a beer that will take you back and treat you right. Prosit!

Who's been drinking this

Fizzy, cloudy, somewhat ugly beer with absolutely no head retention (see picture). This claims to be a Czech lager, but the abundant yeasty tang & fruit esters make this taste more like a Kölsch. Similar unappealing aftertaste to the Prickly Pear; otherwise, this isn't bad once you get past the fact that it's not very lager-like.
