    Is this week just the 2 cans or is there a bottle sale too? Their post about that was a little confusing.

    Just saw that City Slickers is currently on tap at AZW.

    The other new collab they did at OH is apparently Saloon Door, a brown ale with dates and coconut.

    Drinking my last DDH DMD (canned 3/3/17) and damned if it isn't tasting as good or better than when I bought it. I know a month and a half is not a super long time, but when people freak out when IPAs are a few weeks old, beers like this show that sometimes they actually develop nicely over a couple months.

    Had my last as well last night. Color got a little more golden and some of the hops had dropped a bit with sweetness (melon) intensifying. Malt was more forward as a result. Fun to track it, but I think it's best about halfway from canning to where it is now. It is super smooth now, but you have to drink it a bit faster as it gets hotter as it warms.

    Yeah, I'm working until 7 tonight. I'm definitely hoping it lasts a while like the last DDH Mylar batch.

    Is Greenscapes on in the taproom by chance?

    Will there be distro on these beers? Getting to Other Half brewery from Astoria is a pain in the ass.

    N/7/G and avoiding Manhattan isn't that bad...

    Cans/bottles never really see distro, but you can usually find them around the city on draft.

    Bottles sometimes do.

    And in regard to cans, I was at Catch recently and ordered "rotating other half ipa." I made the mistake of asking if the server knew which IPA and was met with, "it always changes." Oh, ok, at least (hopefully) that meant there was a chance it wasn't OH IPA on draft!

    Then I was pleasantly surprised when a can of Cheddar showed up!:slight_smile:

    Do we know of any other restaurants serving OH cans?

    On occasion, yes. I actually saw a bunch of the Soyez Sauce up in Westchester yesterday... But I wouldn't say they see distro reliably or with any consistency in my experience.

    ...And perhaps more to the point, I've never seen bottles or cans in Astoria.
