Other Half in April

Moar 'Tose

 

Nice call ... so what are your thoughts? Will it last until Thursday evening/7pm? ... I think the last mid-week release did. Thanks!

 

Almost definitely, it'll probably last until Saturday tbh.

 

Without a doubt, midweek releases usually last and this is especially true of non DIPA offerings.

 

Thanks for the reassurance! Coming in from SoCal on Thursday night so I'm stoked!

 

First timer going to Other Half this weekend for a release.... is this a release where I would need to be there at a certain time to guarantee a 4 pack of each variety?

 

I would bet that all 4 last the line but its really hard to say without knowing case counts. Nothing looks like it'll be super hyped even tho it is two new beers along with two well liked repeats. If you really want to be sure you get all 4 if you should up between like 8:30 and 9am you should almost certainly get everything.

 

Word thanks. Is drinking beer in line allowed?

 

It's illegal in NYC, but you can drink a bit as long as you're not an asshole about it. You'll be on the sidewalk.

 

@Jim_Boonie_CRS use a coffee cup

 

Also want to add to throw away or hide your empties to the advice. But also given that HVB is dropping something this weekend I wouldn't bother waiting in line unless you really want to, HVB releases always take a ton of people away from OH releases.

 

Between this and last week's release, the line should be short, but if I showed up at 9:30, would I pretty much be able to be in and out by 10-10:15? I'm in a bit of a time crunch Saturday morning and not sure what the shortest line has ever looked like for these guys.

 

It would depend on when they open up at, if they open early then maybe but if they open up at 10 then I would guess not.

 

I think that “pink ‘Like Whoa’ can tasted better than the other color cans” somehow stuck with me. This is the second time I’ve gotten a 4 pack of a multi colored Mylar offering and I’ve saved the pink can for last.

 

All four color labels come off the same roll...

 

I know. But somehow there's a voice in my head from that 'pink is better nonsense' that still says it's the best one. Power of suggestion is one hell of a drug. Put the pink label on the DDH Sake and let's see what happens! =)

 

Pretty sure that's the Rule of Starbursts.

 

Been out of the country for a little bit, but felt compelled to add another +1 to the Idaho 7+Simcoe love. That dropped on my birthday and it felt like a present from OH. Really looking forward to picking up some I7+Citra this weekend.

Had some FOMO seeing that EQ draft list and those collab releases while away, but was really OK with missing that line. Hoping for a return to the roll up around 11 or 12 and snag a couple 4 packs routine I've been getting used to. I feel like there's usually a return to equilibrium after a few of these mega-hyped releases in a row.

 

You could've rolled up at 11 or 12 and picked up the OH/EQ Einstein's Daydream collab. I stopped by at 11:55 am and picked up a couple of 4-pks with zero line. It lasted until around 12:30.
