    Looks like I'm beating HopHeadHerman to the punch here. :wink:

    Per Short's Facebook:

    According to other comments they made on the page, this is to be released in their next variety 12 pack sometime in late July. Per Beer Advocate, this is a 3.6% sessionable light lager.

    Nice work!

    I saw this on the schedule this week, but thought we were just kegging it like always.

    We get people always asking for this one to be bottled. Great name too.

    I wonder if this is a normal lager or a indian pale lager like beard of zues?

    Can't say I'm crazy about this one, but that has more to do with style than execution.

    Nice. Count me in. The older I get the more I appreciate a good session beer

    It's not a hoppy lager, just a nice clean session lager.

    This is amazing been dreaming of the day I could enjoy locals light from a bottle and lil wheezy being bottled is equally as awesome, and who can deny pandemonium.

    I can, not a Pandemonium fan at all. Easily Short's weakest link in their portfolio. Prolonged Enjoyment should replace it as a yearly brew. Just my honest $0.02.

    Though I do like pande, I do like prolonged enjoyment more, good point, that would be a great year around beer.

    It's in our current variety pack (available all over)--some places have opened them up and sold the brews as singles.
