    Any estimate on how many they had? That's pretty close to where I am.

    Ah, I know what displays your referring to. Last year had the Short's and OddSide gift sets on 'em. Neither one had them out yet, but there's always tomorrow.

    I hope not. Juicy Tree is one of my favorites. Speaking of, if anyone's feeling adventurous, Busch's in Livonia has Juicy Tree, Spruce Pilsner, Dan's Pink, and Freedom left in singles and six packs .

    Looks like all the ipas in the variety pack were bottled 10/24-10/26 I believe they said. Can't beat that!

    Interesting - another location near me just added Hopstache, Freedom of '78, Strawberry Short's Cake, and I believe Snake Juice to the shelves. These weren't around a couple weeks ago either.

    Odd to see this old stock make a reappearance.

    Its disappointing to see the grocery chains, who just jumped on the craft band wagon fairly recently, getting the lion's share of this release while the independents like me who were carrying Short's from day one are getting two maybe three cases....

    It's good, but you (obviously) better like ginger. This one and Gingersnap are probably the only two Short's ginger beers I've enjoyed enough to have more than one.

    Confirmed for Meijer Livonia. My aunt was out looking for one for my cousin and called me. The pack wasn't out on the floor and she asked an employee about it. The employee checked in the back, went and got one for her.
    The employee said that she was told the variety pack isn't going to be on the floor until Sunday (and so wasn't supposed to be sold before then), but she tried to ring it up and it's in their system so she gave my aunt one (well, two, I asked her to pick me one up while I was on the phone) .
    So check your local Meijer on Sunday if you haven't gotten one by then.

    Yes indeed, Busch's on Drake and Grand River had 5 left in the walk-in hiding behind a bunch of other stuff as of 3:30.
