Shorts 2014 Beer Schedule Released..

MBG Detroit Fall Beer Fest--could be your chance to taste Bourbon Woodmaster!

 

I'm hoping bourbon woodmaster is still there Saturday. Save me some Sean! Lol. I'm excited to se what we're getting for our vent oct 21.

 

Bourbon Woodmaster will be Saturday only, so you'll probably be good.

So far, Bourbon Woodmaster, Pig Pen, Pineapple Pilsner, and Bourbon Hammer Jack will be Saturday only.

Pan Galactic, Bourbon Evil Urges, Bourbon Happy Jack, and Raisin Apollo will be Friday only.

 

Evil urges is awesome itself. We're coming early Saturday. Hoping to be around 15-20 of us. I'm really excited for this.

 

My wife and I are going to both days of the fest. There will be a group of us there Saturday. I'm also planning to stop by on the 21st.

 

Awesome. Please say hi. Bring a growler if you like.

 

Thanks for the heads up HHH!!!

 

That is a ridiculously awesome list!

 

Did anyone try the BB Bludgeon Yer Spruce from a cask at the anniversary party? I thought that was not only the best beer at the party, but maybe even the best beer I've ever had at Shorts (and I'm a Bellaire local, so I try just about every single beer that comes on tap).

So this beer has had me thinking of Hitchhikers, so I began watching the Old BBC Show.

Is a 7.5 ABV Belgian Ale enough beer to bear the Pan Galactic name? Here is the description of the drink it was named after ;

"The effect of a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster is like having your brains smashed out by a slice of lemon, wrapped 'round a large gold brick. It has also been described as the alcoholic equivalent to a mugging; expensive and bad for the head"


That minor disappointment aside, I will still be looking for this one.

 

Just a another little insight to why the name was chosen as well, its brewed with 100% Galaxy.

 

Yes, that was the main reason for the name, I believe.

 

No worries, I was disappointed when the Trooper came out as an ESB but managed through it. I am sure I will mange my way through my Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster disappointment.

I would imagine the Fallian Marsh Gas would clash with the Galatic hops anyway

 

I call shenanigans! Short's is making us choose between Cup of Joe and Black Cherry Porter? Nonsense.

 

Tough call for me, but I went for Black Cherry. It is delicious.

 

There are Coffee Stouts and Cherry Stouts out there that can help ease the pain of either of these two not making it to bottles but there sure as hell is not an adequate substitution available to us. We might need to remind Joe of his Kalamazoo ties and how friendly we are down here and hope he can make things right with a few (dozen) kegs.

 

Cannot wait for stout Sunday in kzoo... getting my stout tolerance up with expedition, java and double cream that I picked up today

 

Just tried Bourbon Hammer Jack and Sticky Icky Icky from the conditioning tanks. Wow...both are absolutely phenomenal. Those who are going to Detroit this month are in for a real treat.
