    I haven't had that one, has it been bottled before?

    I certainly hope this one tastes as good bottled as it did on tap. One of my favorites as well.

    I think so. In the last pack? Regardless, it's damn good.

    NEW BEER UP!

    [​IMG]

    For those not familiar, Sticky became Legend-tier on its very first release. Even for the "Ugh, not another IPA" crowd (and I count myself in this camp sometimes) this is a do-not-miss.

    Now, if we could just get a release schedule for next year...

    Seems like Holiday Market in Royal Oak got Sticky Icky Icky in.

    Did anyone see it in a grocery/ liquor store in the Plymouth, Northville, Livonia or Commerce area?

    The places I go to in Livonia/Northville usually get Short's shipments either Thursday or Friday. But I'll be checking tomorrow, so I'll let you know.

    Sticky is tasting wonderful this year! Also grabbed the holiday sampler today. Had a Pan Galactic earlier, it was fantastic as always. Currently drinking a Stachebender, it is better than I remember. The wife is having a Hellacious Rock and that is great. This sampler pack is possibly the best ever! And Juicy Tree is up next. I'm gonna go broke.

    That's awesome, certainly at that price. The places I usually hit depending on what I'm doing that day are Wine Palace, Wine Castle, and 6 Mile Busch's. Busch's and Wine Castle will have the Hoppy Holidays pack Friday (I'm on the list - yes, there's a list- for Busch's), and I checked with Castle a few days ago and they confirmed they'll also have it Friday. Palace has usually had stuff late Thursdays in the past,but you might not see it till Friday.

    This is the place to go if you want the newest Short's release before Thursday/Friday in our area. They always have good prices and update their beer menus right when they get new stock. Unfortunately they never get the bomber releases and rarely get variety packs.

    I quite liked RUN at the Detroit beer fest. The world needs more sour stouts.

    So far, quite excellent. I've been waiting for PB&J to get a release forever, it was one of the ales I had at the pub my first visit. Machu has been on my list to try, Hot Loins is an EXCELLENT brown. Glad to see Smore back after the unfortunate events earlier this year. And a Belgian quad! I'm holding out hope that when the rest of the year is revealed, a certain Belgian Dark Strong will be there....

    Also, it's a small thing, but i like how the past variety packs are now linked on one page.

    The real excitement comes with the summer and whether we see Strawberry Short’s Cake, KLP, or dare I dream ... Peaches & Cream.

    And now summer can't get here fast enough. MMB is the perfect yard work beer.

    Hmm no Hopstache to start the year off. That makes me a sad panda. Actually besides superfluid, beginning of the year is looking a little rough for solid IPA's. Wishing Controversial seasonal was HAZY version also.

    I totally agree, it's rare that the sequel improves on the original but in Hazy's case it's absolutely true.
