The Bohunk community (German/Czech) is an interesting dynamic..........and I am not meaning to be racist........that is what it was called in the 70's.......it was propogated by them.........

Galveston County (where I grew up) is a pretty big mixed bag of nationalities........

Up near Shiner and Yokum.......totally different......mainly Czech and Germans.......and they love their beer. Breakfast, lunch and dinner.........

Lavaca County is a fun place to be.........I went to a wedding of a dorm friend in 79 or 80........I am still not sure what all happened on that weekend..........

I am surprised that Shiner is available around the country now.......We were less than 150 miles in Austin and could not get it.........It is good to see that DE who is a crap load farther away.......can get one of our treasures.........

BTW........I do still like Lone Star.......

And........I will still drink inferior beer if it is free..........and even cheap bourbon tastes good in a $150 glass.
