    Hey, folks-

    Perhaps this could be a decent platform, moving forward?

    Next up- HOPSTACHE. It's a tasty one.

    This brew should arrive in stores right around next week.

    Cheers!

    It's beers like this that make me happy that Shorts has greatly increased production of their Specialty beers this year (Just about every release this year is still on shelves even after 1 month). I predict I'll consume 24 of these at least......

    I like Hopstache but it's just a primer for me before I tear into Freedom of '78.

    Freedom of '78 is one of the very few beers I will admit that I want to hoard... not for trade bait but for me. Its perfect.

    It will not be in IL in package but a limited amount will be on tap later in May. I can try and post where.

    Are you talking about the variety pack or Hopstache?

    Hopefully for you he's talking about Hopstache. None of the variety pack beers are anywhere near as good as Hopstache

    That's what I was thinking! Plus, I don't think a variety pack can really be put on tap, can it? :grinning:

    I may have to get my MI connections to grab me some of Hopstache to try, since I've never had it.

    Good point. Pandemonium is good and is probably available on tap but the other 3 in the variety pack are not a good representation of the good stuff that Short's can brew. Not keg worthy
