    idk if its just the centrifuge the color is so insanely different i think OH decided to do something different with this batch of small green everything. this batch it was gold and clear where the last batch it was completely hazy and bright yellow unless they used it as a test batch for the centrifuge but it tasted like a completely different beer and looked like one too

    The double mosaic is also strikingly clear.

    In regard to poster above about visiting OH, unless you're filling growlers or grabbing cans, I wouldn't recommend swinging by for a beer. Threes is much more hospitable with beer as good on tap or you can pick a random NYC neighborhood and walk between any number of bars having different OH beers on tap. Going there for drinks has become particularly terrible.

    The difference in color between cloudy and clear versions of same beer is ridiculously larger than you would expect.

    Keep in mind that you can also find lots of Other Half beer on tap all around the city. You can use beermenus to see what's around.

    It might be on tomorrow night. They usually fill a few kegs from the bright tank the day before the canning.

    Get wheated and so many other half IPAs are just too boozy. Am I alone feeling this way?

    Interesting that this is $6 more than the non BA version. Can't remember them ever releasing a 500ml for $18.

    How is a rum barrel going to change the fact that IAL is simply a bad beer...?

    Maybe if you really like rum? I don't really like the base beer or rum so this seems like a hard pass for me. Unfortunately the line is going to crawl even worse as a result.

    Is this serious? I was planning on arriving at 9 to get a full allotment of cans. Is this not possible?

    I agree it's why I love the single hop series
