I wouldn't put in with craft beer, but it is a better option than the usual suspects. In TX, a lot of people drink it just because it is local. And unfortunately the local choices are not quite as vast as in other areas. You hit the nail on the head. I wouldn’t put in with craft beer, but it is a better option than the usual suspects.

Lots of memories there! I generally agree with you - we did one recently and gave it a perfect mid-range score - 5 out of 10. It's a top choice for a session beer with some taste that goes well with tailgating food. I like what you said - a back pocket beer - that's a perfect description. It's also a good conversion beer for getting Bud/Miller/Coors drinkers into beer with actual taste! Shiner is an old favorite – brewed not too far from my hometown. Lots of memories there!
