    Three of the four beers from the last one were enjoyable (gingerbread-like beer is not for me), with Mystery Stout being really nice imo, so I'm looking forward to this one.

    Chocolate Wheat is definitely a winner.

    Thanks for the info. Three of the four are not among my favorite styles, but somehow I have a feeling that Short's will make them exciting.

    Not at the moment, but there's always a possibility.

    We brought some Earl of Brixom bottles to the Michigan Brewer's conference, this past week. Really solid, sessionable brew.

    Wow. Joe Shorts just does not want to see me save any money.

    Chocolate Wheat is killer. Can't wait for this to hit stores. By the way, if anyone in GR is looking for bottles of Juicy Tree or Liberator, Top Shelf in Belmont still has some.

    Honey Badger was one of my favorite beers last year, I'm stoked to be able to get it in a bottle!

    Little bit of a threadjack but has anyone had Shorts Golden Eagle?

    Got multiple growlers of it this past weekend and all I can say it holy shit, what an incredible beer. In the past couple years Shorts has gone from an interesting novelty brewery to a respectable player to a dominant force.

    Happy about the selection, but my dreams of a raisin apollo, yer my boy blue, aorta ale, and woodmaster 4.0 sample pack are gone.

    Have all of these been released in bottles before? If not, they are working their label artist to the bone the past 6 months. Dang!

    Chocolate Wheat was released last year. Although Short's usually does art for a beer whether it is in a bottle or not.
