Ive had a few of them, I dont even know if Dixie is still being brewed. It didnt seem the have the full flavor as the real Schwarzbier has. It did have a nice roasty flavor like 1554. When I was in New Orleans 3 months post Katrina the Dixie brewery had a 10 waterline stain on the outside walls. The brewery was being held together by hopes and dreams anyway so Katrina pretty much did it in. I dont know if they have reopened or are being contract brewed. If they are no longer around it gives my Dixie t-shirt that much more personal value to me. Oh Shiner has created an nice Schwarzbrier for all those Texas Shiner fans. I think it comes in the multi pack you can sometimes find in the stores. It has a good roasty rich flavor too.
