2016 New Glarus releases

I probably missed this somewhere, but did this year's dancing man wheat get released yet?

 

The thread is searchable but yes it has.

 

I am allowed to be lazy sometimes

 

this literally made my day! I was worried only spotted cow would get canned first moon man needs to be in cans.

 

Say wha?

 

Crazy, new Glarus usually announces thumb prints like a week before they got distro. I could go for some more cranbic though!

 

I guess that means the Berliner is pushed back or is on hiatus this year.

 

Cranbic is tasty and whatnot, and I will buy a four pack or two, but I really hope we get to see a new Thumbprint this year. And not some psuedo-Thumbprint a la Milk Stout.

 

Yeah, I'm not sure why they don't just turn Scream and Apple Ale into year-rounders and make the repeating Thumbprints into seasonals. I suppose they want to keep them at the higher price-point.

 

A Bretted Saison is what I would like to see.

Does this batch of Cran-bic have that big sweetness on the finish?

 

They canning Moon Man and later Spotted Cow. Just announced on Instagram

 

While seeking out some Cassian Sunset I stumbled upon this beauty! @Ri0 it does have a big sweetness on the finish but enjoying it much more than the last batch. The label is different from the last batch, just double checked. This one says "wild sours aged up to 2 years on oak".

 

It also says "2016"

While I would prefer something new, I will take Cranbic over Berliner any day.

 

I'd rather have both but I guess one is better than neither. I'd happily give up both for a new batch of wild sour ale.

 

They're even better when you mix them.

 

Next thumbprint is smoke on the porter...

 

I'd be on board for that, even though it isn't a new Thumbprint/Unplugged. I thought it was a great beer. I wonder if they'll have Hoesly's smoke some malts for this one too.

 

Agree that it's technically not new, but I would say that for something that hasn't been made in 8+ years, it's for all intents and purposes new.
