Shiner Bock in Oregon

I went to the little Plaid Pantry store to pick up a 6-pack. Dang if they didn't have some Shiner Bock. I feel darn near Texan, and didn't even have to fly through Houston to drink it. Now if they only had a Bubba's with Jambalaya

I thought we had passed a law against the export of the finer elements of Texas culture. Ron, Can you find out who their supplier is so we can hang 'em?

We have that, little place in Northeast Portland - and I do a find dry smoked pork, among other fine meats - including apple wood smoked chicken-it is really good. In fact, I won a 4th of July cook-off with a slow-smoked pork loin.

I know there are many micro-breweries in Oregon do you have a favorite that might be exported? I like this brewery in Blanco Texas besides they've gotta great Frank Zappa quote on their web page. http://www.realalebrewing.com/

There is another one out of Austin called Celis, they make a great light called Celis Pale Ale, but they also have others. Hey, you pay for shipping and stuff I will send it myself.

Celis Purple Haze is pretty tasty too, if your looking for something a little different that is.

Favorite - I like most of them , with preferences leaning to bock, dark ale, and good tasty lagers...and occasional porter is fine also. I know nothing about export of the beers.

Here is a list of the brewery members of the Oregon Brewers Guild

Good Texas Brews

I believe everything that comes out of the Spoetzl Brewery in Shiner,Texas (Such as Shiner Bock, Shiner Blonde, Hefeweisen, etc. are all GREAT! When visiting TX, I also like to get some Ziegen Bock which is brewed exclusively for Texas by Annheiser Busch (personally I think it is the same thing as AmberBock, which you cannot get (or I have not seen) in TX).
