Received a cold 16 oz can from @jzeilinger 9-23-25. Canned 9-15-25; consumed 10-30-25. Cold stored since acquisition.
Beer poured orange with a beautiful long lasting white head that is leaving lacing.
Nose is a fragrant bouquet of tropical fruits, earthy hops, and citrus.
Taste is really well balanced as the large malt base displays a fruit bowl of hops which give me white wine, orange, peach, and mango. Finishes earthy with a nice gooseberry balancing bitterness; 6/10 on my scale.
Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied and very soft and smooth.
Overall, this is nicely done!

A - Opaque dark medium golden tan pour with extremely dense, sticky lacing that clings to the sides of the glass like cotton candy.
S - Earthy spicy fruit rind, papaya, spicy tropical fruit. and a little bit of mojito.
T - Papaya, earthy spicy tropical fruit rind, earthy mojito, resiny, and some resiny earthy citrus.
M - Big medium, pillowy soft body that's chewy and provides a semi-dry finish that eventually turns dry after the sip.
O - This one is a winner!

On tap at Fattey Beer Company in Rochester, NY.
This one pours a very hazy golden orange color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells like sweet orange, pineapple, mango, and pine.
This is classic Other Half, not much to differentiate from the others. It’s certainly juicy and soft, and it’s got great flavor, but as I have more and more of these, it’s harder to differentiate things. Yes it’s orangey and citrusy, there’s probably pineapple, yay!
This is medium bodied, clean, soft, and smooth, with a great drinkability.
This falls squarely right down the middle for Other Half.

Pours a mouth-watering consistent straw gold column, with a frothy head.
Smell is grassy, light, notes of watermelon, mango.
Taste follows the nose, well-balanced mix of dankness and sweet citrus on a strong, robust body
Canned 10/31

a: super hazy and creamy looking burnt orange color. some dark yellow notes as well as some copper. 2 finger frothy, rocky white head
s: blueberry, pineapple, peach, and sweet oranges. mango, passionfruit, guava, and some kiwi. a little bit of a bready note, and an earthy-hoppy note too. dragonfruit and peach cobbler to close
t: loads of peach and blueberry cobbler up front. gentle sweet citrus, passionfruit and dragonfruit. candied orange peel and a hint of resin. apricots and sweet pineapple. ripe peach to close
m: super-fluffy and cloudy medium mouthfeel. low-moderate carbonation
o: a fantastic beer. Classified as NEIPA, I'd put this in the DNEIPA category myself, if it existed :) great mouthfeel and hop combo on this
