Other Half Brewing - Center Street

Oats? You want oats? There's plenty of them in here as this was a full-bodied beer that gave me much to literally and proverbially chew on. At least there were plenty of hops in the mix as well as the taste, although subdued, was quite varied and balanced out the malt and oats quite nicely.

The pour to this wasn't anything special as the liquid was a turbid peach without a lot of light seeping in around the edges. A small head and very little lacing left behind only reinforced the dour appearance of this beer. Sweet citrus, white grape, and yeast filled the muted nose as the taste was pretty similar to it's aroma. A bit of tea tied everything in together but this was a bit too herbal and reminiscent of vegetables for me to rate it any higher on here.

This was nearly a session beer, unlike many of the IPA's from Other Half that I've been going through recently. Canned on 4/12/18 with "ALLURLIGHT" written underneath it, this didn't have anything floating in it or settled at the bottom of the liquid. A bit too full on the palate, this was a decent brew and one of the few from these guys that I'd just kick back with mindlessly. At least the label was up to par!

09/07/18...freshie can purchased at the source.

Pours typical NEIPA OH hazed, moderate fine lacing, collar and film left behind.

Melon and woody tea on the nose.

Tasty enough offering,bright, biting and flavorful, more tea notes, some lime, some lime. Not my favorite OH IPA, but this is pretty drinkable and well worth a try.

 

 

Made my seasonal pilgrimage to Other half this weekend. First of all, love the new can setup. You can be in and out quickly with more time to sit back and enjoy a draft. Bought a4 pack of this oddly named beer. Had from the can last night (90% of readers immediately discount what I have to say now) and enjoyed this, but not as much as others. Was fruity and clean, but a bit creamier than I am used to. Nice beer, but looking forward to the other 6 kind in my fridge
