Triple Mylar Daydream
Other Half Brewing Company

 

Interesting color on this one. More cloud apricot juice color than I expected. Lots of particulate floating. Head was very viscous. Nose was very citrusy. Taste and feel was creamy.

 

Ordered from Tavour. Poured from a can into an IPA glass

L: solid lacing that lasted. Beautiful deep orange like juice with pulp.

S: Peach ring candies. Sugared stone fruit

T: stone fruit, mango, slight strawberry notes

F: very creamy due to the oats and lactose. Feels like eating an orange - pith aftertaste and all(in a good way)

O: very delicious beer. Can’t detect the high ABV in the slightest. Very stone fruity. One of the better beers I’ve had in a while

A - Pours a hazy orange with a one finger creamy white head. Big amount of soapy lacing.

S - Aroma is peach, mango and piney hops.

T - The taste is peach, mango, candied orange, pineapple and a nice lingering resinous finish.

M - Medium body with medium carbonation. Super soft mouthfeel with a slick dry finish.

O - Top notch TRIPA. Drinks east for being 11%.

 

16oz can dated 11/28/22.

Pours cloudy gold with two inches of rocky white froth. Thick ropes of lacing with persistent retention. Candied mango, peach, white grape in the nose. Medium bodied with a soft, fluffy mouthfeel. Juicy tropicals on the palate with pineapple skin, dried peaches, mango. Finishes with minimal malt or bitterness.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another delicious juicebomb from Other Half. Thick haze and grapefruit juice oat-based yellow with a pure white creamy head. The mouthfeel is thick, creamy (thanks lactose) and pulpy. In this 5-hop attack, East Coast hops (Mosaic, Galaxy, Citra) trump Southwest hops (El Dorado, Amarillo) for a juicy melon and tropical fruit flavor profile. Smooth, and beautifully blended from the top of the glass to the bottom.

 

Surprisingly dry and a bit bitter, alcohol is well hidden for a beer of this heft, much less sweet and syrupy than expected. In this case could have used a bit of that. Aroma is nice but also surprisingly muted. I expect this dropped off heavily after just one month in the can. Good but not on par with other triples from Other Half or the ever reliable Mylar Bags.

 

 

Orange juice hazy body with a white head. Big citrus and tropical fruits saturate the nose, hops are dank but limited. Sweeter ripe fruit juice dominates the taste, hops again are soft and here slightly resinous. Well balanced triple ipa in that it doesn't have hop burn or booze leakage though fuller in the body. Preferred the double better but this is still a lovely beer

 

L- Hazy orange juice

S- orange & grapefruit rind

T- Follows the nose, grapefruit, orange, mango, pineapple, guava, abv is well hidden, sweet up front, tropical on the finish, low bitterness

F- full bodied, creamy mouthfeel

O- another excellent offering from OH, would purchase again

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pours an opaque light copper with a finger of head. The nose has distinct notes of sweet citrus. The flavor is sweet, juicy and bordering on syrupy; there's not even a hint of bitterness in this offering.

This is full-flavored and full-bodied but it misses the bite that I need in my IPAs.

 

 

 

 

 

Appearance: Pours like pear nectar with the bubble show producing a pillowy two finger head; excellent retention and dribbles of lacing

Smell: Pineapple and mango with citrus (orange and lemon) tones

Taste: The ABV brings a boozy front end with blueberry and strawberry bringing another aspect to the tropical pineapple and mango tones; candied orange citrus, in the middle, with a hint of lemon, after the swallow; the alcohol emerges, along with a moderate level of bitterness

Mouthfeel: Full bodied and creamy with low to moderate carbonation; the warmth in the gullet is not surprising, fiven the ABV

Overall: Really good and fascinating how a beer with an 11.3% ABV level avoids tasting like a hoppy barleywine

 

 

 

 

Poured from a can (3/19) into a glass taster

L: darker yellow gold, white head dissipates after a bit but solid lacing

S: creamy tropical fruit with a nice boozy sweetness. Mango, passionfruit, pineapple, citrus. Some caramel, cracker?

T: first thing I think is creamy sweet peanut butter, in a great way. Tropical fruit comes through but less than the nose, quite sweet. Medium/long finish, some alcohol heat

F: incredibly smooth, creamy, rich. Coates the mouth, medium carbonation

O: really surprised by this, what a great beer. Was on the fence (abv and lactose) and very happy to be proven wrong. If you’re looking for something smooth and sweet this is great

Mylar bags? A Daydream beer? Together? That's what Other Half has with this offering as it was every bit as good as promised. Juicy, smooth, and soft as a pillow, this was everything I hoped it would be and oh-so-easy to drink given how much alcohol was in it. At the end of the day, what else could you ask for from a beer like this?

Lovely pour to this as the hue was a muted peach with quite a bit of light seeping in around the edges. Plenty of head topped this off as the lacing was moderately extensive, as the thick ring near the top of my pint glass bled down to the soapy splotches below. Tons of orange, mango, grass, and cream in the nose as the aroma was as soft as could be. Pineapple, fruit cocktail, orange blossom floral notes, and creamy, chewy oats emerged on the palate as this beer was sweet, deep, dank and aromatic as a Triple could be! A luscious carbonation and nicely balanced body only added to this beer's appeal as the deep and varying array of notes were allowed to burst forth and linger, even if they were quite pronounced!

Part of that had to do with the heft of this beer as it felt every bit the 11.3% ABV that it was, even if I couldn't fully taste the booze. Lots of lactose and berry juice kept this even keeled and had me wanting more when I finished it off. Canned on 1/21/19 with "GOES TO 11" written underneath it, this was better than anything from "This Is Spinal Tap" in the sense that the humor was toned down in favor of substance that lasted throughout. Such a winner from Other Half, I can only hope that they release this again in the near future!
