As a big fan of ambers and bock (I'm from Texas, you have to be cause Shiner!) I'm sad they changed the formula to not be an amber at all. Plus every time I see it in stores the cans have that thin plastic ring on it that for the eco conscious probably detracts from their carbon neutral branding - why not go for the cardboard rings that plenty of others go for? I don't really get other than trying to revamp the image a lot but I don't hate the actual new recipe lol
Despite being a retired beer drinker now, always happy to watch videos about the beer industry. Appreciate all the insights, Nic!
Appreciate it! I've got some gluten-less videos on the way...

Same - I think they still classify the new recipe as an Amber, just "an Amber on its brightest and crispest day" but it's kind of a stretch IMO!
