    Hey now!

    Moher Stout has been bottled and is beginning to be distributed throughout Michigan! This is the first time Moher has ever been packaged for statewide distribution.

    You can also find Uncle Steve's Irish Stout in kegs only throughout the state.

    Enjoy St. Patrick's Day!

    Moher Stout     is a medium bodied double Irish Stout, black in color with a rich brown lace. Light roast malt and bitter cocoa aromas lead into a big creamy mocha flavor. Aided by the addition of flaked oatmeal, the finish is exceptionally smooth, with only a slight dryness and moderate roasted bitterness.

    9.7% ABV
    30 IBU

    Publican over every bottled Short's beer EVER! Still can't believe we aren't gonna see Publican in bottles this year. Moher is damn good but does not compare to Publican.

    I'm happy for this as it means Superfluid is right around the corner!

    It's essentially a double Uncle Steve's with flaked oatmeal.

    I've been searching for it for a while now, and a lot of stores still don't have it in stock yet. One store owner explained to me that the distributor won't deliver any until all of the previous variety pack has been sold at that store.

    I found it at Meijer behind some winter variety packs.

    Hey Guys, instead of posting a new thread, i figured i could threadjack this topic momentarily. I got a buddy from ypsi visiting me in Chicago. I wanted to have him mule me some Short's beer. One of my favorite breweries.

    I believe parade is year round, right? I enjoy this beer so i know he'll be able to find some. Anything else that is currently available as year round and or not necessarily in high demand? Every time i'm in town (state) i've enjoyed all their beers. so anything is good for me. Basically, i'm looking for some names of beers. It's been a while since i've picked up any.

    Any variety pack, huma, seasonal, quarterly pale, etc. there's a ton of options out there.

    Here are some names of some of the brews that I have seen on the shelves. Granted it isn't Ypsi, but I would think it would be pretty similar -
    Year Rounds - Bellaire Brown, Local's Light, Huma Lupa Licious, Soft Parade, Prolonged Enjoyment in 12 packs
    Seasonal - Controversiale, Winter Variety (Stellar, Black Chai, Dr. Zeus, Happy Jack), Snow Wheat (12 pack), Spring Variety (starting to show up)
    Seasonal Pales - Space Rock (starting to disappear), Chatterbox
    Specialty Releases - These will be hit or miss, but Moher Stout this week, seen Goodnight Bodacious around still, and still some Carob Stout. On the off chance your friend sees Woodmaster, that is a must. I know that in some stores I have seen some older specialty releases. But just depends on the area and the store.

    Good luck! Hope he can find you some of Michigan's treasures!

    I definitely wish I would have bought more Woodmaster. Great stuff. I clearly need to increase my minimum buy for things like this...maybe starting with this one.
