Anyone else had the new Shiner Frost seasonal beer? It's supposed to be a Dortmunder style beer, and it's good!
It's definitely hoppy- if I had to estimate it, it's probably at least 30 IBU, and it's malty, grainy, etc... probably the best thing Shiner's made by far, and if not in the Dortmunder style exactly, it's probably pretty close- closer than their attempt at Helles or Oktoberfest, anyway.
It's the first in the 2010 seasonal beers by Spoetzl, and the next one's supposed to be a Czech style pilsner, so I'm looking forward to that.
