Shiner Ruby Redbird
I realize this might not be all that exciting for some of y'all for my first beer post, but I was excited to finally find this in Florida.
I enjoyed it. Thought is was kind of a fun and interesting post-lawnmowing type beer. The ginger is the dominant flavor, though there are hints of wheat and the grapefruit is subtle. I would actually prefer a little more grapefruit and less ginger. The dominance of the the ginger coupled with the fact that it is highly carbonated makes it taste a little too much like ginger ale for me. It was better when poured into a pint glass and allowed to sit a bit to warm and let some of the fizz dissipate.
All in all, another good offering by the folks at Spoetzl.
