Double Dry Hopped Forever Diamonds
Other Half Brewing - Center Street

Decanted from a 16 oz (473 ml) can into a muffin top, pint glass; canned 02/23/21.
A: Pours an opaque, golden orange color with a one finger, white head, moderate retention, and juicy rings of lacing that become sparse quickly.
S: Aromas of pineapple, caramel, lemon and maybe apricot predominate.
T: More semisweet than semidry. Palate largely follows the nose, although more lemon and caramel. Bitterness moderate blending in nicely into the overall picture.
M: Medium bodied with moderate effervescence. Creamy and smooth.
O: Enjoyable and very, very easily drinkable. I have always enjoyed when Other Half experiments with light, creamy NEIPAs, Imperial or no.

Cloudy/hazy orange pour with an off-white head. Smell and taste are clones: papaya, big melon, big nectarine, light clementine and lemon with dry floral hops with a touch of dankness setting in. Feel is lighter bodied but hop textures carry with soft dryness and sharp grassiness. OH just makes good ipas, and this is another one

 

 

 

Pours cloudy bright orange color with a 2 finger thick foamy beige colored head that was packed with bubbles of all sizes, fading very slowly and leaving very nice lacing. Smells of orange peel, clementine, floral notes and/or fresh cut grass, coriander, light peppery spices and biscuits and bready notes as it fades. It mostly smells like tropical fruit. Tastes slightly skunky and like weed up front, with some piney notes to go along with the orange peel, clementine, floral notes, fresh cut grass, light peppery spices and biscuits. I’ve tasted this hop before that’s part skunk weed and part minty flower root, but this time it had some metallic notes too. Thankfully there was a bready sweetness and some faint caramel that trailed as it faded, which helped hide the ABV and made it enjoyable.
