A shark on whisky is mighty risky. A shark on beer is a beer engineer.

It's new. The Waterloo variety packs always have a one-off in them. Previously there was a bock and a Belgium-style light ale. The one-offs have been considerably better than the regular line up, thus far.S. St. Jeb wrote:?? Is this new? Or do I live under a rock?MatttthewGeorge wrote:

I've purchased the Waterloo variety packs in the past to try the one-offs you mention.....but I'm not much interested in buying 3 coolers.
