    Funny I tried the same thing at my local Kroger but they hadn't broke up the 12 packs. I had the same thing in mind!!

    Convinced the guy at my local beer store to break up a 12 pack and I took 2 while he took one. Problem is I'm doing a beer swap this weekend with a guy from VA and he's getting both of my Superfluids. I'll just have to try Kroger again and if they haven't broke it up yet I'll just grab a manager and try to initiate it..........

    Oh, I know. I thought Ocho was decent, I much prefer the salty/sour ales to the straight-up sour ones that are all over the place these days. I'm heading up next weekend, so I may be able to snag one. It'd be my first Private Stache.

    ^^ Oh my, had one last night and was completely blown away. Whoever gets their hands on one will not be disappointed.

    Well, damnit. You are right!

    The faded, old hops that turned Hopslam into a caramel-y mess adds some sweetness and body to Shortscake. This definitely works!

    I went back to my local place and he agreed to break up another mixed pack so I was able to grab two Superfluids for myself. Just put one away and it is just so damn good and unique. Was a little harsh out of the gate but after warming up for 10 minutes or so really smoothed out. Been loving this beer for the last 4 years and really feel like it's a unique "gem" here in MI - nothing tastes like Superfluid!!!!

    Necron 99 from Three Floyds, and Maine Brewing's Another One are similar, but not as good, in my opinion.

    Never had either but I'll be on the lookout now - if it's even close to Superfluid I'm sure I'll dig it!!

    Thanks!!!

    Just noticed this one was added to the release schedule as part of the Salvacious Planemo series: it's the return of Peachy Pom Pom

    [​IMG]

    It's listed as TBD for Great Lakes distribution. Since it's a Salvacious Planemo and not Elk Rapids release this year I'm gonna guess we'll see this in six packs, and hopefully at a more palatable price point than the bombers last year.

    Actually it's on shelves now. Just picked up a sixer today at Meijer in Ann Arbor. Can't wait to give this one a try.

    That should not be. It was packaged in two runs. Half Last Friday, half today. But should not be out yet. Thanks for letting me know.

    Will Slurm Lord be Michigan only or full distribution?
