About this beer
This is the 7th of 20 labels we have from Shiner / Spoetzl Brewery. It is one of 15 bock / doppelbock labels approved in December 2019. Its label was approved 16 days after it was submitted. The label carries barrel-aged on the front. The label carries the Brewers Association independent seal.
From the label“Brewed in collaboration with Balcones Distilling in Waco, TX, this barrel-aged Bock uses a medley of roasted specialty malts for a rich, nutty flavor. Aging in Balcones Single Malt Whisky barrels imparts robust notes of oak, brown sugar, and vanilla for a long, complex finish.”
