    Dammit!!! Where's Publican Porter?

    Aside from that, looking forward to Swirl Stout and Ocho de Mayo. Good to see Key Lime Pie back too.

    Edit
    And No Spruce Pilsner. The world has come to an end.

    So glad that there aren't too many repeats from last year, I love the variety. Big excitement on my part for Richard in the Dirt, which has been on my list for a while, and I keep just missing it at the pub. Also, Twist of Cain (which is called Twisted Cain, I assume their the same brew) being a seasonal is awesome.

    The only thing I'm depressed about is having to vote between Captain Fantasy, Chocolate Wheat, and Dolly Dagger as People's Choice. Why,oh why, can't I have all three?

    Swirl stout and ocho de mayo are the two beers I'm most looking forward to trying.

    That Swirl Stout, and Bim Bam Boom, I want to try the most. I'm *just* out of distro range of course, but still...

    Looking forward to trying a lot of new Shorts brews. Nice to see Sticky Icky Icky will be back. Really surprised there is no Pan Galactic. Better stock up this year.

    If you've never had raisin apollo vote for that beer for peoples choice, so amazing! It will be getting my vote everyday. Pumped that key lime is coming back. Stoked for alot of the new ones. Wish they would've swapped shorts cake for peaches and cream. Lets face it with so many great beers, everbodys list of favorites would be different. Thats one of the reasons Shorts is so great.

    As far as I'm concerned, the world is coming to an end if there is no PGGB. :angry: I may have to go live at the pub and drink myself to excess if they brew a small batch of it there.

    I assume Lil' Creepster will be a non-imperial Creepster? If so I'm all over that one.

    And for as many Shorts' offerings I have tried, there are still 8 beers on this schedule I have never tasted, and that doesn't include whatever might show up in the variety packs. There are some good beers missing next year, but I can't say I am disappointed with the schedule by any stretch.

    Raisin Apollo got my vote. Only one of that group that I have never tried and I've heard good things.

    Gentlemen, despite the absence of Pan Galactic ( I still have the empty bottle from the first one I had, that's how much I love it), I find myself getting more goddam excited the more I look the schedule over. 2016 is gonna be a banner frickin year.

    Also voted for Raisin Apollo since I've never tried it. Crossing my fingers that it gets the win.

    Also, ATTENTION anyone headed up to Bellaire from around SE MI in the near future: Ale la Reverend is available to go at the pub right now. If anyone can grab 2 packs ($8 a piece), I have a Maple Bourbon Barrel Magician bomber ($19) to trade.

    Wood Master was one of my favorites this year also, wish I would have bought more. Overall looks like there will be a couple more releases than the past few years I'll have to seek out.

    Really happy to see the variety of new releases - especially Melt My Brain, Swirl Stout, and Ocho De Mayo.

    Also extremely relieved to see Superfluid is still on the schedule. That one just needs to be made into a Seasonal Release already.

    I was hoping to see the Pistachio Cream Ale get bottled next year - fingers crossed it at least gets included in one of the variety packs. That stuff was amazing.
