    Read back to all the hate on Laughing Grass. Not the same beer as like an M-43 but very good and I love what they did. U get all the hoppiness and flavor u would from a much higher abv beer but u could drink it all day. I guess the people want the haze! I'm totally fine with the amount of hop goodness they packed into this sessionable beer. Way to go shorts, please bottle. And if this is any indication, Slurm should be great

    dump some orange juice in it.. BOOM "NE IPA"

    haven't had the chance to try the laughing grass yet. But for sure will be having slurm..(s) this weekend at the anniversary party. Oh and definitely going to be there Sunday for the brunch too ! That should be pretty cool.

    Oh, man. Convinced the wife to take a bonus weekend trip Up North. The good, we're gonna be in Bellaire, hitting the pub and doing the brewery tour. The bad, it'll be two weeks after the Anni party. So if any of youse guys see some of the Stache bottles running low, place a few in a basket down by the river. :wink:

    Although for real, this is the time frame I start checking the tap list and praying certain ales stay on the board.

    Beer Announcement, before it gets lost in the Anni party excitement:

    [​IMG]

    From Short's website
    :

    "ERMAGERD! ERMAGERDNESS is back in bottles!

    ERMAGERDNESS (5.5% ABV – 84 IBU) is a light-bodied, golden-colored American India Pale Ale with zesty tangerine and pineapple aromatics. A simplified malt bill, along with some signature American hops, allows for an awesome burst of tropical fruit flavors up front. It then shifts toward an interesting herbal tasting bitterness, which builds and lingers on the back of the palate.

    Originally envisioned by Al Russell (our friend and former SBC Production Brewer), Al sought to create a hop forward American India Pale Ale reminiscent of some of his favorite brews. While the name ERMAGERDNESS may have only been a placeholder, it ended up really encapsulating just what we thought of the awesome flavors encapsulated in this brew. We guarantee, just one sip of this tropical fruit filled AIPA will make you scream “ermagerdness!”* "

    This one's gonna be a Michigan only release this year, so if you want some good beer with some semi-disturbing artwork, c'mon to the Mitten.

    Had Laughing Grass on tap tonight at Hop Cat. Did I understand correctly that it's the same beer as Slurm?

    Not really a "NE IPA" imho. But pretty damn tasty. And I do have a soft spot for the new name. The world needs more Futurama themed beers.

    Not the same beer and to be honest hopefully Slurm is nothing like laughing grass.

    Have a good one, BAs! Post photos so those of us at home can play along! If you get a bottle of Bourbon Wizard be careful with that stuff, the booze is extremely well hidden. It's like Batch 5000 in that respect, the effects will be on you before you know it.

    It's a beautiful day in Antrim County.

    And Slurm is not Laughing Grass. Just had it.

    Slurm is really good y'all. Not quite as juicy as some of the other offerings (M43, Juice is Loose) but it is nice and bitter. I'm on #3. Well done!
