    Here it is, the release I've been waiting for:

    NEW BEER UP!
    [​IMG]


    Sometimes I buy singles, usually a six pack, at times I go back for a second six, amd once I bought an entire case (Chocolate Wheat). As long as there's enough released, I'm buying a case of this without hesitation.
    There's quite a few Short's brews I like, some that I love, but this one is an obsession. Let's encourage Short's - for my own selfish reasons - to make this a success so it gets released every year!

    Just polished of my first bottle of anni ale, glad its back in sixers because it is a Shorts Brew classic. So tasty!

    Not sure what's crazier, a brewery who brewed over 320 different beers or a guy who tried them all!

    Anybody know when we should start to see 12 pack cans of Melt My Brain? I can't wait to buy several.

    Currently sipping my first Most Excellent Stellar, another great double IPA from the great folks at Shorts. Can't wait to crack open New Style later!

    Well, lookee here, it's a trifecta of...

    NEW BEERS UP!

    First up, Revels Mondo. Private Stache release so you need to boogie to the pub to get some.

    Next, from the Elk Rapids bomber series Bourbon Huma! This one's Michigan-only, BAs.

    Lastly, the long awaited return of Melt My Brain!

    This one, of course is going through the Great Lakes region in bottles and cans so there's no excuse not to have one wherever you go!

    Also, it'd be great to get a BA on next year's labels, so start snapping those pics.

    I was impressed too. I normally favor heavier beers, but this is really an excellent lager. Good job, Shorts! Those in the GR area who like New Style should try Harmony's Erste Lager, another delicious one.

    "Hopstache is an American IPA brewed with real grapefruit zest. Made with Amarillo, Citra, and Simcoe hops, this beer has aromas of dank citrus and pine. An initial sweetness is balanced with flavors of grapefruit and zest. The finish is intense and dank with little bitterness.



    6.8% ABV
    85 IBU"



    No offense to Perrin or Ballast Point, but THIS is the grapefruit IPA we've been craving. Quite frankly, I could forgo the description and at least a half dozen folks here could rattle it off.

    FUCK YEAH! This is a top 5 Shorts brew for me. Time to go kill the IPAs in the fridge to make some room.

    Still have not seen the variety pack around GR. In the meantime I'll keep buying sticky boots sixers. I'm loving this one and surprised some here were meh about it. The bitterness has toned down a little now and it has really turned into a wonderful grapefruit bomb.

    Funny I was just thinking about BBA Huma yesterday and how I hadn't seen it around. As far as the TeKu goes, I've only seen it at the S-Mart.

    Haven't seen it in metro Detroit yet, either. Probably will show up here Thursday if release patterns hold. I need some New Style in my life right about now. Hopefully MMB will be here, too. My wife goes nuts for that one.
