It is only appropriate that the reader be made aware of the exhaustive research that has gone into the creation of this Shiner Old Geezer Web Site. Picture, if you will, a group of dedicated researchers setting out with clipboards and cameras in hand, scribbling copious notes, interviewing numerous bar owners and patrons, always with a consuming thirst for knowledge and a cold beer. Think of the hardship, the sacrifice, the long nights, the terribly hot days... the hangovers! It's not a pretty sight. But, the Old Geezers firmly believe that the effort was well worth the struggle and we hope that your visit to our web site is enjoyable, and if you are in the area, please stop in and...buy a round.

( A word of caution is appropriate at this time. Do not, I repeat: DO NOT try to sample the wares of these establishments all in one day. Leave that to the professionals. A word to the wise doesn't need explaining)
