    Any chance we could get a sneak peak before the website gets updated?

    We did not have Bourbon Magician last year-we did have Bourbon Wizard and Bourbon Huma, though. Perhaps that's what you're referring to?

    Really? Well, to each his own. I've had a lot of great stuff from Short's over the past couple of years I was just thinkin I wanted to have another kick at the can with Gambler. Liked it a lot the first time and haven't seen it since.

    But F, they make so many awesome brews. BRING EM ALL!

    Man this thread is getting depressing. Just can't help but read it though.

    Would personally love to see BA Woodmaster...Can't remember if I've ever had a Brown Ale that's been barrel aged...sure I have but must of not been great enough to remember.

    BA Cup of Joe and BA Hopstache would be dream beers.

    Agreed. And leave any new batches of Hopstache out of any sort of barrel, besides keg form, please and thank you.

    Is there a definitive number of different beers that Short's has brewed to date? Since inception? I'm a fan of just turning back the clocks, starting from #1, and at least attempting to barrel age each and every one of Short's beers. And then throwing a tap takeover party at HopCat....

    Uber Goober Barrel Aged...And PBJ Barrel aged.

    Fuck, I'd even try Bloody Beer Barrel Aged....

    Short's 25th anniversary:

    Brew every single beer ever brewed. Add one teaspoon of every beer ever brewed to whiskey/bourbon barrels. Age.

    Release.

    Is Griffin Claw pretty good? My wife and I just bought a house a couple miles away from there that we'll be moving into in March. Would be nice to be close to a decent brewery.
