Shiner Beer and Garrison Brothers Distillery partnered up to launch the limited-edition 24 oz. Barrel-Aged Doppelbock. The new brew is part of Shiner's 2022 Brewers Pride series and is expected to sell out quickly. The exclusive brew celebrates Shiner's most dedicated fans.
Carefully crafted with two-row premium, copper, and chocolate malts, as well as golden hops, the beer is aged in the ex-port casks that were used to craft the Garrison brothers' Guadalupe Bourbon. The Barrel-Aged Doppelbock boasts 12% ABV and is the first release of the Brewers Pride series. It offers a combination of unique flavors due to its slow aging in the one-of-a-kind casks. The result is a bold and innovative flavor that will appeal to beer connoisseurs.
