Short's Brewing (2021)

That is a great price. I paid $36 for the last one at my local spot. It seemed more scarce than usual this year.

 

I know, I paid 36.99 for two and figured that would be all I could find....then I saw the mountain of them at Costco, and had to buy two more!

 

Goodnight Bodacious is out. This is one of my favorite Short's beers, straddles the line between black IPA and imperial stout. Reminds me of fresh Expedition stout.

 

Saw a Tried & True variety pack at a local store today. It's a 12 pack of 3 each Soft Parade, Local's, Huma, and Bellaire. So, similar to the 24 pack at Costco but with the addition of Bellaire Brown. $14.99,so a decent price if you enjoy the flagships.

Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure Shorts very first variety pack was the same thing.

Edit: Dammit, so close. Substitute Pontius for Local's and its the first pack:

Actually, that sounds really nice!

 

Aiight, heads up. The latest Short's Report contains a link to a to the 2022 1st Quarter Release Schedule:



What's that? An IPA Awesome Pack? Oh, it contains:



The one on the right is Nowadaze, a Double Hazy IPA.

So what's everyone think? I'm happy for some Uber Goober, Double Parade, and to try the IPL. Good Humans is nice to see back too.

 

Last release of the year! I remember the year Short's got into the Hazy IPA game and launched Slurm and Slurm Lord. I was at the pub at this one was on tap and I immediately thought it was superior. Highly suggest picking this one up in days of auld Lang syne


The addition of oats really makes this one stand apart

 

I missed the pub only packs, too. And Short's puts out enough IPAs I don't know if putting out a variety pack of that style (except Space Rock, which I would call a cousin maybe) makes sense.
I still hold out hope we'll get that premium variety pack Joe mentioned a couple years ago.

 

Want list from the good old days:
Publican Porter
Cup A Joe
Key Lime Pie
Juicy Tree---bottles
Strawberry Shortscake
Woodmaster
Peaches And Cream
Carrot Cake
Chocolate Wheat
Pandemonium

 

I second this!

 

I could go for some Aorta ale or Lil' Wheezy.

 

This too!

 

The Baskin Robbins of beer....

 

Need a Jamocha Almond Fudge Stout

 

I miss lil wheezy, love that one

 

Dear Shorts,

Stop making the beer schedule and let us do it.

Us

 

If that happens, I'm adding Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster. I really miss that one.

 

I'm in. Please add Bludgeon Yer Eye. I LOVE Goodnight Bodacious, but I'd like a black IPA option that doesn't wreck me after a few bottles!
