The Dreamiest
Other Half Brewing - Center Street

 

Hazy orange, Big, white head. Amazing combination of tropical fruits, melon, or malt and lactose in the aroma. Soft, juicy taste with long-lasting, hoppy bitterness at the end.

 

 

 

 

 

Canned on 2/23/21; consumed on 3/24/21

Pours a nearly turbid, dark sunflower-orange body topped with a finger of creamy, fluffy, eggshell-white foam; good head retention leaves a few paper-thin, spotty islands of cap, a thin, though rich collar, and a generous spread of webby/spotty lacing coating the walls of the glass.

Aromas start off with peach fuzz, wet moss, and white grape vine for an initial earthiness nodding toward a burgeoning array of fruits; a touch of lime sherbet bursts forth into a mango middle with distant coconut, developing creamy tones over time as clementine and papaya close the bouquet.

Taste shows boggy impressions of tangerine cocktail upfront, accented with mild grassy characteristics leading into oily resins meeting fresh clementine and guava into the mid-palate; a touch of underripe pineapple is steady into back end, where mango, apricot zest, and bits of creamy, tropical hop essence finish.

Mouthfeel offers a medium body and moderate carbonation, clean and without edges upfront before steadily developing pillowy, resinous textures into the mid-palate; vaguely bitter though increasingly creamy at its peak, the back end is slightly slick, with an even milder hoppy twang through the swallow.

A focused profile entrenched in waves of creamy, tropical hop saturation, the final product does largely lack distinction despite being thoroughly enjoyable and an overall rounded take on the style.

 

"2/23/21" dated tall can.

Top notch look to this nectar...heavily hazed/juiced, fine and frothy cap, leaves all sorts of stickage.

Over the top fragrant tropical fruit infused sniff...delish

Full on smooth and thick mouthfeel, milkshakesque.

The nose barges onto the palate sensations, pineapple, coconut custard, assorted other ripe tropical notes all over this one.

Boom...OH throws down...world class...at least...run and go get some...

 

 

 

Great can followed by a great beer experience. Hazy orange and full flavored IPA. Run, don’t walk. Dreamiest indeed!

 

Look: Murky dark orange with fluffy white head.
Smell: Acorn squash and piney.
Taste: Nice bitter hops, pumpkin pie and resiny pine.
Feel: Smooth and well carbonated, somewhat syrupy.
Overall: A pretty good IPA, lots of flavor.

Smell, taste and color were all fantastic but what set it off for me was the creamy lusciousness of the mouthfeel.

 

 

Soft and creamy hazy IPA, notes of mango and citrus that are fresh and pop nicely; dry finish that makes this IPA as a whole an easy and quick to finish beer
