I like it better than the original shiner.


Can't say I've even had an original shiner. All About The bock. The blonde is good as well.

This is the one I had last:

That's the old school shiner. As far as I'm told nobody drank it and it was always lone star back in the day. I've never had that but have had every other one jarbo listed. Good stuff.

It's a good beer, but nothing special. The Shiner White Wing is good when it's hot, similar to Shock Top, and if you're into shandys, try the Ruby Redbird.

Went to Texas a few years back to visit some of the wife's family and I wanted to try a Lone Star beer. Either its a fake product used as a joke so Texans can laugh at out of staters or the whole fucking state was out of it. I tried like seven or eight stores between Fredericksburg and Galveston before I gave up on it.

No shit? I have pounded hundreds of Lone Star. Not the best, but it' works in a pinch.

Was given a bottle of Bayou Rum while doing the farm releases at the distillery owner's marsh this Spring. No longer drink (practiced like all hell but never got good at it) and passed it along, but noticed it was just 40 proof, which I don't recall being SOP with Bacardi.

Nice looking truck.......I personally don't like the lights on top of the cab but I know lots of three quarter ton trucks have them.

Hope you have good luck and many pleasant miles of Dodge Trucking.

Thank you Ron, I got the build sheet from Dodge when he gave me the VIN so I could run a car fax before I drove out there and it came from the factory with them. I didn't like them at first but since having it all afternoon they have grown on me.

I like the look of cab lights, I added them to my 1 ton after I bought it.

During my trek acrost the asshole of the world (which consists of southern Ca., most of Arizona, all of New Mexico, and a whole bunch of west Texas) I looked forward to having a beer that I'd seen in countless movies but never in any store in my native Ca.. "The sign says El Paso but sureley this must be Mexico" I thought to myself. Better press on. Eventually we came to Fredericksburg. It looked like a nice place to stop before pushing on to Austin. No Lone Star here. Onward. Eventually we arrived in Austin and I realized that every damn thing sold in every store in the state of Texas either says "Texas" on it, has a big star on it, and usually it had both. I figured that Lone Star beer would be the easier to find in Texas than water. I was wrong. The rest of my tripwent the same way. I did however try something that I fell in love with. The crawfish "poor boy" sandwich. But unfortunately, I was forced to wash them all down with Budweiser.

He seemed put out that he didn't have any of the spiced version in the truck, so maybe it's better.

Know his marsh is pretty sweet: most of what was the Blackwater Marsh Club on the NM corner of the Bell City and Gragg ditches.

Keep the lights. You're gonna need them when you and TK ride out west to hunt Sasquatch with Red and Tripod. :thumbsup:
Looks like a nice truck and like others have said, looks like a gamey truck for some states. You pull into public hunting areas and there will be a few available hunting spots as soon as they see you. :beer:

My only purchase from the OWF this weekend.

CAM00468.jpg


CAM00470.jpg

I bought it from NW Duck Boats. If you don't recognize him it is Tealer from DHC. For those of you who don't know him, he is a big guy. That's why I had him get in the boat, for size/scale comparison.
I worked on him through out the weekend to try to get him to come over here. We'll see if he shows up.
