🌍 United States · Alcohol-Free Brown Ale · One of 2 Alcohol-Free Brown Ales in hopIQ

Part of Shiner's Rodeo line of non-alcoholic beers, introduced in 2024 and styled after an amber ale. It pours a copper-red colour. Toasted malt and caramel lead the aroma, with brown sugar and a faint raisin-like dried fruit note behind them. The palate is malt-forward and lightly sweet, balanced by gentle hopping, with moderate carbonation and a lingering malty finish. Alcohol stays below 0.5 percent.
