Tried the Shiner 102 Double Wheat last night. Very tasty!
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.

It took 3 pages for Franconia to be mentioned! I really like their Octoberfest.
Some of the folks on here might not consider it a Texas beer though. The owner is originally from Germany. Very nice fellow!

I like Franconia over all. The only bad thing about following German purity laws is that there's no innovation in the beer. That's one of the things I like best about American style craft beers. All the big, bold flavors, and all the innovations. Of course...the high alcohol content of some American craft beers doesn't hurt either lol. But, Franconia makes some very tasty products!

I'd just like to re-iterate....
Jester King may be Texas' best brewery right now.
Their Black Metal Imperial Stout is amazing, and their Wytchmaker Rye IPA is damn delicious.
(512) is also brewing some fantastic beers, but they don't bottle yet, just have to drink them on tap in bars.

Shiner Summer Stock. I can only find it when I'm down near Shiner. One of the best beers I have ever had!

I have a new favorite Texas beer.
La Muerta Imperial Stout by the Freetail Brewery, out of San Antonio. Sadly, they're a brewpub, and so by virtue of outdated, idiotic Texas law championed by Distributors who only like lining their own pockets...
Freetail cannot distribute it's beers or sell them anywhere but their own pub. ( They're opening a second one in Houston. )
Anyway, their Imperial Stout is world class, truly fantastic. Sadly, it only comes out one day a year, and as mentioned must by purchased at the brewery, where the bottles sell out in hours.
The bottle I got to try was hand numbered "2010 Vintage, bottle 401 of 450."
