Other Half Brewing September 2016

Easy release this morning. Was home by 10. Still can't believe people are maxing out on these 4 can releases. That is an insane amount of beer and money.

Mylar Bags confirmed for the next release in 2 weeks.

 

Don't get my hopes up!

 

Whoops

 

Barely a line, easy. Everything available right now.

 

The intel I got is:

Mylar Bags
Forever Simcoe
Short Dark and Handsome
A new beer involving Galaxy hops and Concord Grapes extract (wuuut?)

 

Yeah they definitely confirmed Mylar bags in 2 weeks.

 

Yes plenty of beer as of now. Simcoe will prob sell out first

 

Yeah I haven't been to a release in ages but with simcoe/waiti and ddh double mosaic, apparently a small line, and a napping baby, I couldn't resist it. But I was wracked with guilt coming home with one case total and having dropped 114. Couldn't believe so many people walking out with 4 cases!

Awesome news on Mylar

 

Heads up for those coming from Manhattan. F train going back into the city is down bc of a switch outage. Taking forever for G to arrive

 

Actually down to down to about 20 cases of mosaic.

 

So every beer lasted past 12...glad I showed up around noon and not 5am like others (untappd line check ins started real early today).
Side note: Nelson/Motueka is one of the most unique ipa's I've ever had. Getting a ton of grape

 

I liked the limey angle it cut the Nelson grape with. Beautiful release today.

 

In and out no lines. Back home and ready to enjoy my Saturday outside. Glad I decided not to go to Kane today.

 

DDH Double Mosaic is very very good. Far and away the most insane nose on any OH beer to date. I opened a can and my entire kitchen instantly smelled like a bong rip. Cheers to Other Half for another amazing release.

 

Ddh mosaic gone.

 

DDH double mosaic is insane!! Lots of blueberry flavor

 

Anyone crack an Amarillo yet? Mosaic is fantastic as was topical depression on tap.

 

Amarillo is delicious. Forgot how good this one was. Maybe the least exciting of today's releases on paper, but still fantastic

 

Decided to forego my plans to take mass transit to Other Half today and drove there instead. Other than the horrific traffic on the BQE on the way in, today's release was pretty much seamless. Showed up around 12:30 and got everything I wanted.

Drinking DDH Double Mosaic Dream right now. Holy smokes. This one's a banger. Best adjective I could use to describe this would be "pungent." Really glad I didn't miss out on this one.

It seems like Other Half has really been hitting their stride as of late. Bigger yields, more variety, smoother can releases...what a time to be alive. Now I long for the day that they start distributing their flagships.

 

Yeah as someone living right outside of NY in NJ I love driving up at 12 ish, getting east tasters/pours and cans. Just grabbed plenty of double mosaic dream this week and some Amarillo and both are delicious.
