PilsnerBright golden and clear. A more aggressively hopped lager that sports a strong, grassy hoppiness along with lager-driven crispness. Not as hoppy as Live Oak's interpretation, but quite good none the less.
Label-scan on it's way, but its basically the "Pilsner" label with "Lager" instead. Somewhat simplistically named Helles style lager. Slightly hazy straw color yields a delicious, fruity noted beer with slight hop aspect that slides by essentially unnoticed behind the refreshing fruit tinged finish. Great summer quencher or bridge beer.
Schwarzbier offering from the brewery. Deep brown to black with all the roasty notes you'd expect. Not stout like, but not supposed to be; instead, think of a sweet, mellow roastiness of a dark Oktoberfest or, perhaps a very strong Vienna. Low hopiness, but present. Somewhat rare style (I can think of only a couple of commercial examples, and no other American-brewed examples are available in Texas to my knowledge). Definitely worth your time if you have the chance.
Real bock brewed to take some of the shine off Shiner in these parts. Richly malty and mildly alcoholic, it probably weighs in at the low-alcohol end of the style. Quite good nonetheless and extremely drinkable for the neophyte. I tend to recommend this one or the Lager to the folks just dipping their toes into regional, non mega-brews.
Brewer/owner James Hudec trained in German breweries and it shows in his beers. Currently only available in Houston, worth seeking out if you're in town.
Word on the streets is to expect an Oktoberfest and, perhaps, a real Bock from the brewery in the future.
