    my rep said she hadn't seen any yet. it could be allocated, but holiday didn't advertise it so i'd say next week on the east side. Gingersnap is really good, snow wheat and beach wheat are the exact same beer i believe,(just depends on the season), i'm excited to try black diamond and mystery stout.

    I apologize for that, we had a slight issue in the last run. It was pretty isolated. there shouldn't be any issues from here on out.

    Black diamond and mystery stout were both fantastic. Not a huge fan of gingersnap, had a weird aftertaste for me. Will be cracking a Snow White when the fourth quarter starts. We'll done again shorts!

    Yeah the Mystery stout im having right now..Pours with a really frothy milkshake like brown head... tastes great! And im not even a big Stout brew person haha. Almost sessionable.. good thing theres 2 more

    The Snow white was a tasty-classic Hefe. Pretty good.

    The black diamond was real good.. unique.. , reminds me of the "Sustenance Black Beer" they have at the pub

    Havnt had the gingersnap yet... thinking meh on those with what ive read haha

    picked up a few packs last week (already on sale!!!) and im thinking i need another.. mystery stout alone is worth it but black diamond and snow wheat are damn tasty beers.. hell i even liked gingersnap once it gets to the right temp.

    keep the variety packs coming because im fucking loving them!

    Just finished my second 12pk of this one and definitely the best variety pack I have had yet. Only one didn't care for was gingersnap just not for me but the other 3 made this pack worth every cent. Black Diamond is hands down my favorite lager I have had yet.

    Retire Gingersnap, way too much ginger root. Sorry just didn't care for that one, however, the rest of the pack's well above average.
    Win again for Shorts!
