    Finally had the 3rd of the 3 IPA's from the latest release tonight and I have to say Mylar Bags stands out for me. Really good beer. NIce juice/citrusy flavor. Simcoe is great as well and more of a lemony citrus flavor but Mylar gets the nod for me. Grape Conversate a distant third but looking forward to trying a second can in a week or so and seeing if its changed at all

    Trillium's latest collab seems like a pretty huge miss.

    Let's hope this upcoming OH one is another single IPA / pale ale (like awesome Street Green / Green Street) and not another shitty fruited beer.

    I struggle to find a taste reference point. There might a bit of lemon, but overall for me the impression is not fruit, but vegetal. If you asked me to pin it down based on the can I'm halfway through right now, I'd say it tastes like steamed yellow squash. Weird, right?

    Maybe it's me. Street Green was good not great or worth the wait, hundred thousand trillion was good not great when I had it on tap trillium. The line will be a circus either way I'm sure but I think they should stick to their own beers. Collaborations rarely turn out great it seems.

    The first batch definitely was but then they couldn't replicate it I believe the second time around.

    Gonna have to echo some of the sentiments on this page and say that I'm really not a fan of Grape Conversate. Probably my least favorite Other Half can alongside Topical Depression.
