Short’s Epic 10th Anniversary Party!

Looking for our 2015 Eleven Year Anniversary Extravaganza? 

Short’s is turning 10 years old!  We are so excited that we decided to throw a really big party. On April 26th you will find us dancing in the streets of Bellaire, Michigan (yes we are closing down the streets) and we want you there.

Get ready for 99 beers on tap (full list here)! A variety of food will be available in the pub and on the street. Joe Short will also give his annual State of the Brewery address. Live music performed throughout the day by: Dean Ween and the Brown Outs, The Ragbirds, Breathe Owl Breathe, Steppin’ In It, and Don Julin and Billy Strings.

Stache Bender, Anniversary Ale, and beer/food token pre-sales will run from 12 pm-2 pm.

Tokens will be available for purchase throughout the party. Each token is $5. A token buys 16 oz of beer for the majority of beers, 10 oz pours of high octane gourmet beers, and a variety of Short’s food options.

Check out the food menu!

Admission to this event is free. However, by decree of “The Man”, event capacity is restricted to 4,000 shiny happy people at one time.  So, be sure to arrive early to ensure that you’ll be able spend your time partying rather than watching a party in line.

This shindig starts at 3 pm and ends at midnight. After 8pm the event will be 21 and over only. Everyone under 21 will be asked to leave at that time.

*Please NO dogs
