    Get ready for yet another limited variety pack- it just started hitting stores!

    This beauty features Dr. Zeus, Black Chai, Stellar Ale, and Happy Jack. It's pretty awesome!

    I will just state right now that Stellar Ale is unbelievably crushable. Seriously, there should be a warning label on that beer.

    Cheers!

    Cool!! Four beers that I have not had the opportunity to have had yet, and they all sound delicious. Couldn't expect more from Short's. Merry Christmas right back attacha.'

    It is damn near impossible to keep up with Shorts! Version 6.0 and 7.0 showed up simultaneously in the Lansing area. Finished off 6.0 last weekend (Dan's Pink Skirt was amazing and Thirst Mutilator was a great Munich Helles) and picked up 7.0 for this weekend. Can't wait!

    I almost picked up some of this but still have some Mutilator to get through. So many (awesome) releases, not enough time!

    Didn't really dig the ginger addition, but it's alright.

    Another winner in my book. Awesome combination of chai spices and chocolate, roasted malt.

    Short's has come such a far way in such short time, they are now literally making all of Michigan's other breweries look terrible when it comes to servicing their biggest fans, the one's who supported them in the tough times, the ones who helped make it all happen ..... THEIR HOME STATE!!!!!

    I personally hope Short's never gets out of state, let them be our New Glarus forever so long as they keep smothering us with new great releases in such attainable quantities. Only thing that makes me sad is Publican Porter being kicked off in 2015, but I guess the return of Wood Master this year makes up for it =D

    Anyone seen this in the Livonia/Plymouth/Canton area? I have hit up a couple of my go-to shops and nobody has this yet.
