Multi-chroma
Other Half Brewing - Center Street

Pours a very hazy yellow straw color with a sudsy white head that provides a nice amount of lacing. Beautiful hazy. The nose is all tropical fruits, with passion fruit, pineapple, lemon, and mango all sharing top billing, which is where the taste lands as well, accompanied by a full, soft mouthfeel. Glad I had a chance to try this one.

A: Bright but hazy yellow with a 1-finger foamy white head on top.

S: First impression is limes; also ripe melon and generic tropical fruit salad.

T: Follows the nose more or less, with sweeter tropical fruit (ripe melon, mango), a touch of ripe peaches, and limes.

M: Good feel to it; call it medium in heft. Nice easy drinker.

O: Quite good.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once again, this was a Chroma beer from Other Half that impressed but unlike the others that I've had from them, this offering had a ton of hops and a myriad of flavors to it. This was a really smooth, bright, lively beer that didn't stay in my pint glass and left me wanting more before I even finished it off!

This had a nice, golden straw hue to it with plenty of brightness and subtle sheen that was quite pleasing. A nice head topped it of as the lacing left behind was quite extensive. One ring near the top faded down to rocky, sudsy clumps that got soapier and splotchier further down my pint glass. Lovely aroma to this as there was tons of bright lemon, deep and dank tropical fruit, citrus pith, white wine, and outdoorsy pine as the taste burst forth with all of these as well. Loads of melon, kaffir lime, earthy hops, and a subtle deep burn combined with floral orange blossom notes and a wonderful resin and juicy slickness kept this fun, fresh, and beautifully nuanced. The malt was quite basic and the carbonation moderate and just enough to scrub my palate clean after every sip.

The low level of alcohol in this should have put this brew in the category of American Pale Ale although the abundance of hops might have tilted this towards American IPA status. Canned on 2/18, this was another winner from Other Half, down to it's minimalist bullseye label that had lots of color to keep up with all of hops inside of it. I love these beers and how enjoyable they are - keep up the good work!

Pours a hazy yellow with a whitish head. Some pine and floral notes on the hear. Low ABV at 6.3% so very crushable. Good bitterness balance and a very solid brew.
