    Just Michigan? That's too modest.

    My problem exactly - bought three 6 packs last Wednesday and finished my last one last night (after a double crooked tree!) Sure hope my local place has another 6 pack for me tomorrow.

    I'd hope that if this stuff was year round I'd get sick of it because otherwise I'd have to address a pretty serious drinking problem.....

    Should probably start a new thread on the subject but gonna keep it under the general Shorts thread. As somebody that drinks primarily IPA's, I was just thinking if I only had one brewery to drink IPA's for a calendar year it would probably be Shorts. One beer per month for a whole year, yeah Shorts could pull it off:

    1.) Hopstache
    2.) Dan's Pink Skirt
    3.) Superfluid
    4.) Psychedelic Cat Grass
    5.) Freedom of '78
    6.) Batch 5000
    7.) Kind Ale
    8.) Sticky Icky Icky
    9.) Good Night Bodacious
    10.) Snake Juice
    11.) Chief Hopper (never had, trusting it's solid)
    12.) Juicy Tree

    Is there a Brewery that can satisfy a Hophead better (hypothetically) throughout the calendar year?????

    Damn, maybe could extend to 24 months of nothing but Shorts IPA's and this could work........

    Had my first hopstache in over a year, maybe two years and I have to say I forgot just how damn good this beer is! The hop profile, malts and grapefruit in this one are perfectly balanced in a harmony with not one out shinning the other. It is true poetry in beer form. Glad I have 5 more bottles to go!

    This needs to be bottled, either Private Stache or distro bomber release. Insane good! Better than I remember from previous vintages.

    Loved this beer. Was very excited to find it on tap, on my last visit home to the U.P.

    Smore Stout will hit shelves, this week. It is VERY VERY limited, so good luck. Check out places who's staff know how to educate people about craft beer.

    thanks again, was able to get some Hopstache at Barneys yesterday on my way back to Chicago. What a solid selection for a grocery store! Looks like they had about 3-4 cases if anyone is still looking and in the area.

    Is it a new batch of Smore Stout? Or bottled same time as last batch?

    Picked up a sixer of S'more stout at D. Schuler's in Wyoming. They usually receive a good supply of Short's specialties, but only had 2 cases of this one. Getcha some!

    Probably not. But, if you come to Logan's Alley in GR at 7am on Valentine's Day, I guarantee you'll get to try it. Carpe Diem.
