Better buy up all you can this year.

Crazy that MMMKay is a People's Choice as well. Really mixing it up next year.

 

[cneville1]

wait no spruce pilsner either! what the ****, shorts. what. the. ****. tons of great sounding new stuff though. sign me up for melt my brain.

 

[steimie]

Nice to see Kind Ale coming back. I'm not real impressed with Devil's Lettuce in its place this year.

 

[joe1]

if you ******** dont vote mmmkay im going to be pissed!

 

[Wino1]

Just happy to see Key Lime Pie. I look forward to having this beer every summer when I see my parents in Traverse City. Love this place.

 

[sostark]

This is a pretty cool announcement too. https://www.shortsbrewing.com/unwrapping-crowlers-pub/
Hoping they'll have something unbelievable on tab next visit...also hoping for canning in the future?

I felt that Deacon Blues was one of the best Short's releases in the last few years. Kind of flew under the radar, IMO. I'm glad to see Richard in the Dirt making an appearance, hopefully that goes well in bottles.

blows my mind that stuff like deacon and mmmkay aren't a yearly thing. ive had so many shorts beers its not even funny and those two are some of their absolute best! i would kill for 6 packs of both during the summer.

So much of what Shorts does is bewildering--but it is that same bewilderment that makes them such a great company and their products so enjoyable. There are probably 100 shorts beers I would be thrilled to see on shelves year round or in the place of many of their year round offerings, but that is the plight of the fan boy loyalist

 

[steimie]

What ended up winning the fan vote?

 

[sostark]

Goodnight Bodacious

 

[steimie]

Goodnight Bodacious

Boo!

 

[MarcatGSB1]

Boo!

I'm with you. Not my favorite style = not my favorite beer.

Deacon Blues was mindblowingly fantastic considering Short's doesn't really do Belgians...(and Woj goes wah wah when they do)

 

[joe1]

who's ready for batch 5000 bombers!?!?!

 

[joe1]

also really considering trying to go up for the starcut birthday party feb 20th for some of the new wild cider series! loved the cider so far so im sure its delicious!

 

[steimie]

who's ready for batch 5000 bombers!?!?!

Yeah, I can't get too excited about a 15% triple IPA.

 

[joe1]

Yeah, I can't get too excited about a 15% triple IPA.

i don't care for double or triple ipas but im sure they put together something really tasty for this. just the fact they are bringing out bombers again for distro is pretty freaking awesome!

 

[Jb123]

I missed what the bomber is. Really a 15% triple ipa?

 

[steimie]

I missed what the bomber is. Really a 15% triple ipa?

It was up on their website but has since been taken down.

 

[Jb123]

Ahh thanks!

[user 305963]

Interesting news from the mind of Joe Short....they have decided to distribute outside Michigan

 

[MarcatGSB1]

Umm hmm
Why Joe, Why?

 

[MarcatGSB1]

****

 

[MarcatGSB1]

I'm really baffled. I love Short's. Idolize Joe for building a brand with hard work and taking root in a small community. But **** man. If capacity is there, then why do I have to beg for a case of Swirl Stout and other specialties? Change your focus.
Im kinda upset.

 

[joe1]

after they have been really pushing the "michigan only michigan forever" ? seems weird and i don't like it..
