All Jream Everything
Other Half Brewing - Center Street

Pours very Hazy nice orange color. Aroma mostly banana. Taste is like drinking bananna, mango, pineapple juice. Does not taste like beer. For a 8% juice, it's pretty darn good. If you want beer, I would not recommend.

 

 

 

 

L - gentle pour leads to a massive, bubbling head that rapidly spills out of the glass and onto the table below. Body is an opaque, dirty orange.

S - tons of banana, pineapple, mango, coconut. You can smell it from across the room.

T - follows the nose. Banana-pineapple-mango smoothie laced with drops of coconut extract. Sweet banana dominates the mid-sip and takes over the finish. No bitterness. Moderate sweetness. No booziness.

F - medium body with high carb.

O - wish the banana was less dominant, but this is a unique, refreshing sour.

 

 

Tried this at Other Half Brewery in Brooklyn last Saturday. Damn this was good.

First let me say - the renovations are great at the place. It was PACKED. Good music, good people, you know the rest.

I was overwhelmed when I first walked in and looked up at the colorful board filled with a tremendous selection of out-of-this-world beers. I was truly spoiled for options and wanted to make the most of my selections. When I saw the color, name, and description of this heavenly beer, I knew the front runner.

I love sours, but they're often session beers. I like alcohol too, ya know? I'm pretty much a hardo. No issue. This was an "imperial sour ale." At 8.5%, this treat tasted like God himself picked mango, "special" bananas, pineapple, and macaroon cut coconut straight from the Garden of Eden. I imagine he then placed this deliberate selection of fruit into the palm of his hand and squeezed it into a 12 Oz. tulip glass. Perfect pour. Perfect beer. This tasted like paradise on steroids.
