In Popular Culture
Shiner Bock is a favorite beer within the Texas Country music scene. The brand is mentioned in songs by Robert Earl Keen, Jason Boland & the Stragglers, Pat Green, Josh Abbott Band, Gary P. Nunn, Casey Donahew, Django Walker and Brandon Rhyder.
Georgia country artist Jason Aldean was forced to change a reference to Shiner Bock in his 2012 song "Take a Little Ride". The original lyric, “grab a little Shiner Bock” was replaced with “grab a couple Rocky Tops" due to the fact that he was in the process of signing a sponsorship contract with Coors.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“The best of us would rather be popular than right.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“When we want culture more than potatoes, and illumination more than sugar-plums, then the great resources of a world are taxed and drawn out, and the result, or staple production, is, not slaves, nor operatives, but men,—those rare fruits called heroes, saints, poets, philosophers, and redeemers.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
