A friend who transferred to Texas earlier this year reported that he prefers Yuengling Lager just slightly to the Bock.
Like I said, it sounds like Shiner. It's no prize pig, but it's a hell of a lot better than other beers at its price. Actually, Shiner sounds better, but not by a lot - only because they offer a Hefe, Schwartz, and Blonde as well as the standard Bock.

At least it's still privately and American owned. That's good enough for me.
Shiner and Yuengling are drank more out of tradition than taste. Yuengling for being the beer Benjamin Franklin would pour on titties he was about to motorboat, and Shiner Hefe being the bottle Sam Houston would shake up furiously and insert into a lady's vagina, a popular trick known as the 'frothy dog' he picked up from Davy Crockett in the great war.

Very interested in the ten year old stout!
Damn that's quite a lineup. I predict you're drunk less than halfway through the tasting and forget what everything else tastes like.
Still, rock.
Want to make a bet on that?
I'm just betting on the fact that you're not the hardcore drinker you were, and that is a lot of beer. Some of which I will assume is a decent alcohol content. If not halfway, I would bet on 3/4 the way through.
