Double Dry Hopped Hop Showers w/ Citra
Other Half Brewing - Center Street

16 oz. can Hazy orange with an ample white head. Smells of nose-tingling citrus, white pepper, and some sweet melon. Tastes of orange and grapefruit. White pepper kicks back in a touch in the finish. Pale malt with a hint of sweetness. Grapefruit builds into the back end. Medium body. Good balance of flavors for this style of IPA. Hop flavor is dynamic enough to give the illusion of bitterness, even if that's really just a zip of acidity and peppery hops. Never too sweet, either. Good.

 

 

 

 

Hazy orangey yellow body, white head. Tons of citrus fruit and zest, dank and piney hops in smell and taste. Nose smells more wet than the feel actually is which is fun, good hops sharpness and haze balance but very light and short lived for OH. Get tropical accents in the taste, so taste more complex but nose much more potent. In a world of so many top shelf ipas, this one is good but doesn't stand out either way

Can 11/11/20. Nose is fruit forward with notes of citrus and tropical fruit, while also a bit of floral to it, body and taste is more delicate. Soft orange and light mouthfeel. Was hoping for a little more punch, but could be attributed to the fading of the flavors due to some aging. Still a solid IPA offering.

Poured from a 16oz. can into a Rastal Teku glass.

LOOK: Beautiful haze yellow-orange. Nice, medium foam with long-lasting lacing.

SMELL: Tropical fuit. Pineapple,

TASTE: A little bitter/hoppy on the front end. Those same tropical fruits (pineapple, mango?) underneath. Some boozy and hops on the back end as well.

FEEL: Nice medium mouthfeel.

OVERALL: Really enjoyed it, but it's not quite as good as many of the other hazy, DDH, NEIPAs out there. Taste more of the hops and alcohol than the fruit.

Can. White head. Lace.

Hazy golden orange color.

Mango, melon, cantaloupe. Honeydew. Citrus. Zesty hops. Some hop bite. Tropical and fruity. Soft and juicy. Very enjoyable.

 

Tasted in a Spiegelau IPA glass from a one pint can on November 27, 2020.

Canned 11/11. Pours a cloudy orange with tan tint. Plenty of fluffy head that stuck around for a while before leaving a good amount of lacing. Smell initially was super strong Citra notes of pineapple and orange. Still plenty of those scents, but not as strong as when it was opened and poured. Taste is mild notes of pineapple, mango, and orange. Not as strong as the initial smell would indicate. Light to medium bodied, slightly mouth watering, mild alcohol presence. Not bad, not great.

 

 

 

Canned: stamp is not legible, picked up at brewery 14 days ago
Consumed: 10/21/20

Bold yellow haze color, smells amazing, citra hops deliver a sweet scent, but the flavor leans towards the hops. Other Half brewing is slowing climbing the ranks as one of my favorites. If you see an OH can in you store, give it a try!!!

A: Pours a hazy yellow color with 2 fingers of head that fades down to a decent cap that leaves good lacing

S: Lots of citrus and dank earthy notes up front along with lighter tropical notes

T: Follows the nose. Starts off with a mix of citrus and earthy tones with some dank, herbal bitterness. Tropical notes come through as well. Finishes with lingering citrus and dank tones

M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation

O: A great citra DDH version of hop showers that lend some nice citrusy tones to the dank nature of the base beer. Definitely worth checking out
