Short Version:
Keep an eye out for a Texas Special or Special Export beer from the K. Spoetzl Brewery for release in 2025.
TLDR:
Texas Special and Texas Export were alternating names for Kosmos Spoetzl's flagship beer for decades until John Hybner came along and created Shiner Premium in the 70's to compete with the likes of Bud, Schlitz, Lone Star, etc.
This 'new' beer is allegedly a more cost conscious offering to sit in the market spot somewhere between Shiner Light Blonde and Shiner Premium. This makes no fucking sense whatsoever as the brewery has been wanting to kill Premium for years and makes absolutely no effort to promote the product. Premium is actually one of the better beers this brewery makes, the malt profile has some corn along with the two row it so it's not a true SMASH beer like 1909 but the two row give it a nice spicy grain note and it's a balanced beer. It's actually pretty reminiscent of Budweiser red label if you haven't had one on a while. I hadn't either.
By the way, if there's interest in some informative / hit pieces on this thread about the Spoetzl brewery and now distillery, please let me know and I will pen them. I can tell you quite a bit about the place and I won't pull punches, positive or negative.
