This week's Sunday Night Suds looks at Shiner Day Quencher Session Ale.
I picked this up in Beverage Barn on Jericho Turnpike in Garden City Park. Its one of my favorite beer stores and has been for more than a dozen years. As I have written in the past, one of the nicest things about the Beverage Barn is that they allow you to buy singles from any box that is not sealed and they will often open up twelve packs and make a six pack for you without upcharging.
The Day Quencher is 4.6% abv is which is about average for a session beer. It poured a darker gold than I was expecting, but with little lacing and almost no scent when I brought the glass to my face. The taste is light and crisp and a little bready, but without any noticeable pine, citrus or hops of any kind.
The beer would be a good choice for a session beer and I feel like even having more than one would not create much of a buzz. This would not stand up to anything heavier than a pizza, but if you want to have one on a motzei Shabbos with some pizza it would not be a bad option.
The Shiner Day Quencher Session Ale is under the Kosher Supervision of the Va'ad of Detroit although there is no symbol on the the bottle. To see what the experts on Beer Advocate think about this brew click here beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/143/363282.
As always, please remember to drink responsibly and to never waste good beer unless there is no designated driver.
