I hear you on the Huma cans, but then I find them to be my best option a lot of times and I like the ability of taking them camping, to beach etc. Huma initially turned me off and I know I've had some off bottles, but I still find it to my go to when I can't find a specialty from someone else. I would argue that most Bells generally strike me as overly malty sticky messes.
I bought a mister fusion 6er from an idiot party store that probably left them in a window and then put them in a cooler 3 months later and yeah, the flavor was OFF. Then I had 2 Wowee Zowees my wife's boss had held aside for me (they were bottled two years ago) last weekend and there really wasn't any mint, but damnit if that wasn't still tasty. My biggest compliment I can give to shorts is their tireless efforts to make sure nothing weird happens to their contents and even their waste water is cleaner than the water they start with! I know--I'm a real fanboy.
Your list is interesting to me because none of those are really my jam. I was definitely disappointed to see their release schedule for this year but I have to admit I have still enjoyed almost everything they have released so far this year(Bim Bam Boom never needs to be spoken of let alone packaged ever again). Pan Galactic is probably my favorite beer and to see it be added to the release schedule is awesome. Anniversary in 22oz seems like a boneheaded move as have a lot of decisions this year, but if we can get specialty cans and mixed 15 pack cans in the future then Shorts will continue to be me one and only <3 end of shorts love letter/defense of their misgivings
