Instant Greens
Other Half Brewing - Center Street

Hazy grapefruit juice. Nice citrusy, tropical and light white wine hop aroma and flavor; no coconut character from Sabro. Nice balance with little to no bitterness. Fairly light bodied with a juicy hop finish.

On tap at Fattey Beer Company in Rochester, NY.

This one pours a hazy golden yellow color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.

This smells like grapefruit, guava, and orange.

This is very juicy, with very little bitterness, just a little bit of grapefruit pith. It’s mostly just tons of guava and pineapple, and some orange/tangerine like notes as well.

This is lighter bodied, but creamy, and very drinkable.

This is a bit better than the standard OH IPA, I definitely enjoyed it.

 

give me more

16oz can poured into a SA perfect pint

A- pours a hazy orange with a one finger foamy white head that has short retention

S- smells of grapefruit zest, mango, guava, grass

T- zesty white grapefruit followed by a guava and mango. The finish gives more citrus zest with guava and grass on the linger

M- medium body with moderate carbonation, foamy mouthfeel and creamy finish

Straight to the dome with this one so I can’t rate the look fairly, so I’ll overestimate it based on everything else. I’ve been loving Other Half for the last year or more. Citrusy, juicy, zesty, dank, and piney. Lemon and orange flavors. A bit of a dry finish, booze is subtle. I think the reason I like OH so much is because I enjoy their base profile, and most of their IPAs are good variations of it.

 

 

 

 

 

Poured from the can into a Spiegleau IPA glass.

Pale lemon meringue with a nice glow and almost glossy looking. Bleach white and creamy topped supper soapy looking head with a lot of staying power. Slow motion rising carbonation, and big touches of lacing while observing.

Creamy sensing aroma, with tropical pineapple notes and touches of grass like herb, almost fresh cut grass. Faint touch of dank earth as well giving lots to observe and smell for a hop profile. Neutral notes of yeast and malt pretty much to stay out of the way.

Wonderful palate. Light bodied but full of girth and even playful carbonation just by a hair. A mid palate with tropical cream and spicy bitterness of grass and herbs that is nicely balanced. Finishes with fruit and grass herbs, and little touches of peach and cantaloupe melon and tropical notes.

Really like the lower abv spectrum on this as well where it hits with some power without feeling overly heavy, and not session light. Really nicely crafted brew.

 

 

16oz can. No dating information found.
Hazy, straw colored body. One finger of white head sticks around as a thick cap for quite some time. Leaves behind small clouds of lacing.
Aroma of citrus, pine, and tropical.
Taste of smooth orange, grapefruit, mango, papaya, and the essence of coconut.
More than medium mouthfeel. More sweet fruit than bitterness but slight bitterness does exist. Very good carbonation.
Very smooth IPA with citrus and tropical flavors.

 

 

Fantastic tropical aroma. Moderate head retention. Rounded and smooth mouthfeel. Very low hop bitterness with a ton of citrus, orange, and tropical hop flavor.

Very fresh NE IPA. Smooth, refreshing, easy drinker. Wish I had bought more than 4 pack.

Pours a hazy yellow, pale in color nonetheless. There isn't much head retention at all. The smell packs a rather large hoppy punch, really bright and refreshing. The taste is citrusy, very clean and very little bitterness despite the obvious amount of hops in there. The feel is ultra smooth, easy drinker. Overall very nice!

Excellent. Smooth finish.
