    Aphasia is an Old Ale I believe....curious about the others though.

    I was typing the same response as northernbrews. I've had the BA version of Aphasia, and it was excellent. Never heard of the other two. You really can't go wrong with a tap list like this though. Long live Short's!

    Oh shit.

    Grasshoppa was amazing last year. A buddy just had Dirty Bird at the Brew Pub last week and really liked it as well.
    I need to look this up, I'm assuming it's at Ann Arbor's and not Westland's location?

    Thoughts on BB cherry porter making it to Saturday evening?

    I just found out the same thing and had the opposite reaction :slight_frown:

    As of May, they had never released a non-bourbon-aged version of Aphasia (I emailed, and that's according to their "resident beer historian"). I don't know if that's still true, but it seems likely this weekend's Aphasia is bourbony.

    Unless they save some, probably slim?
    I'd imagine BB Cherry, Dirty Bird, Grasshoppa (if people enjoyed it as much as I did), Alphasia and Shortscake are first to go.

    That's what I'd like to find out. I'd be pissed if I drove all the way over there and all the good stuff was being saved for Saturday.

    I might have to go out there on Friday now that I know it's not in Ann Arbor.

    I'm not sure what will happen. Ashley's will probably determine that.

    Given how awful that beer is, I figure it's a 50/50 shot that this comment was complete sarcasm :slight_smile:
