Once you try black...

The Spoetzl Brewery in Shiner, Texas makes arguably the finest bock (high-malt) beer in America. I got to try their Black Lager the other day, and it is some heavy, heavy stuff. Like a certain Irish stout of fame, it is dense and a little bitter, but unlike the Irish stuff, it's reminiscent of roasted nuts and BBQ.

Good stuff, wouldn't buy it though...
