    I think only HEB, maybe Central Market and Specs carry them in Houston. Could be wrong though.

    I do not really enjoy many Shiner beers, but their seasonal fruit beer, Shiner Cheer is incredibly tasty.

    yeah i've never known this to be a real "high demand" brew... no clue people liked it so much as to worry about it selling out. i know i've never had a problem finding it. i also know that it isn't anything special and it sure as hell isn't 3-page thread worthy, but to each his own i suppose.

    central market and specs in austin have had it every time ive been in the last couple weeks - i love this beer, but my friends ive pumped it up to find it most disgusting.

    to me it tastes like welch's strawberry soda flavored beer - its dangerous b/c its so deliciously refreshing - cant...stop...drinking...it.

    I loved Pecan Harvest. Strawberry Harvest is good, too. It's better than Shiner Ruby Redbird, which I would call its closest competitor.
