    Yes. I can't post the picture for some reason but all were 14/18 16/18 18/20. But all good stuff. Just the 32oz price sucks. But I guess it's extra for the dry hopping.

    Oh and i forgot, they had wines from upstate ny and graft cider cans too. So if you have non beer people you always wanted to bring, they have options too.

    Will all the taps be exclusively OH offerings, or will there be occasional guest appearances?

    I'm cool either way....

    Pretty strange but luckily the 64oz fills are still marked at a fair price. I guess they might be attempting to save some time and avoid potential growler mixups. The 32oz price may cause some to opt for a 64oz growler fill instead of two 32's.

    Best 2 potential things about mid-week releases (especially 2 cans at once) is that hopefully the weekend craziness will be toned down a bit and that the secondary market will take a hit. I think that would be a win-win for everybody, including Other Half.

    Doubtful. All the weekday releases I've been to have had zero line. In and out in minutes. The weekday factor eliminates a lot of the out of state people driving in for the release.

    Does OH typically use Chinook hops? Wasn't aware they used those

    I can't remember them using it, at least not recently.

    They use Chinook in their 'flagship' west coast IPA

    I'm hearing rumours that the meaning of life is available at the new taproom? Can anyone verify that?

    Also are the 32oz growlers double double dry hopped?

    Looking forward to checking out the space this weekend.

    People checking in various cans 2 hours before they open. Not sure how long of a line but it seems there are people there with chairs [untappd]
