    Speaking as someone that likes OH beers to be a bit on the "green" side, DDH Mylar Bags could use a week or two to mellow out a bit. Straight juice up front, but definitely bitter on the back end.

    I was blown away by ddh suparillo in the taproom (maybe expectations were low). I would've gotten more of this for sure.

    Is tasting killer out of the can. DDH mosiac needs a week I think

    I'll feel like a monkey's uncle if Stacks and Suparillo are incredible after loading up on Mylar Bags and DDH DMD. Only bought a 4-pack each of the former.

    DDH Mylar is in fact great. Gonna be even better in 2 weeks.

    While a few more days and more reviews will tell, I think this was just an awesome release all around and there was no wrong way to go.

    Agreed. I'm a big baby when it comes to being outside in the cold for extended periods of time, but if DDH Mylar is any indication of the quality of the other beers the wait was well worth it.

    Anyone have intel on the next release?

    While we're here, anything we should be sure to include as information in THE FIRST OTHER HALF THREAD OF 2017 when this gets reposted?

    parking information, bags, food updates, etc?

    DDH Mylar is incredible. Maybe my favorite OH beer. Will need to consume a few more 4 packs before I reach a verdict.

    The taproom is packed to the gills today, about as crowded as I've ever seen it. Took about a half hour to get my growler filled. Got there around 1 and missed out on Mylar and DMD but I'm happy with stacks and suparillo + a fill of DDH FS. I'm sure they'll release most of these beers again in due time.

    They had just sold out of Stacks while I was in line. Wound up getting a few Suparillos and a growler of Mylar

    This DDH Mylar Bags is fantastic, incredible smell. I don't know what dry hopping is, but seems every beer I have that is DDH is even better than the non-DDH version.
