Other Half (2019)

How about a 4th anni re-brew?

Hoping to pick up AIE. It'll be fun to see if it lives up to the post sleeper hype. I do remember it really standing out at the time.

 

I know someone will try to justify this, but lining up at 4am in 20 degree weather (420!) for collabs that are being re-released is one of the weirder human phenomenons I could imagine. Does anyone other than traders/label collectors/resellers really care that much about tasting these beers again to do that? They aren’t even going to be made the same as when they were originally released let’s be honest.

But I guess OH is pandering to the real fans with this release

 

I'm going to say I'm 80% sure all these will outlast the line

 

Yes, I was never a line guy myself - more like a collective “we.”

 

Anyone who says they can compare these to the original releases is lying. No way you can remember how they tasted from that long back after so many different beers in between anyway.

I hope so, I’d love to roll up late morning and grab a 4 of each

 

I’m gonna take a chance and probably show up around 10:30-11:00. I loved Like Whoa, would be awesome to get some more.

 

Gotcha. I agree 110%.

 

Wait so I’m confused - is there no 5th anniversary beer? If not, definitely not going

 

That's next weekend

 

Final collab:

All Lactose Everything DIPA (8.6%) with @Bordendairy When our buddies at Borden Dairy hit us up with some fresh lactose, our minds started going crazy figuring out ways to make a beer out of it. We have sweetness from South American lactose balanced out by the piney Northwest lactose then finished it with some grass and oats. We added a touch of Galaxy and Motueka to smooth out the sweetness so it resembles beer. $20 per 4 pack, 1 case per person.

 

Haha ok so definitely just going to Grimm tmrw. Good call!

 

Cookie Kooks is a complete mess of a beer and one of the worst OH stouts I’ve had in a while. Getting through a 4oz taster is arduous at best.

That being said, Tribulations is great!

 

That’s why I hate relying on Untappd to determine if I’d like something. Kookie krap or whatever it’s called has almost a perfect rating on there. I took a taste from a friend last night and actually felt bad for him for having to finish the bottle. Just a frankenstein mess of a beer.

 

Not holding my breath after watching FP1 sell out in 90 mins at a not particularly busy release.

 

Untappd is too full of clueless noobs to be any kind of guide.

 

Drinking Cookie Kooks now and it's good actually

 

All awesome posts, this is what this thread has been missing. (Kookie Krap-love it!) Keep ‘em coming guys. Someone has to make up for the lack of @rozzom in this thread!

 

Agreed, cracked my bottle open yesterday. Sounds like a mess but all the flavors come together surprisingly well. Sweet as all hell, though.

 

Drank a can of last batch of DDH DMD and goddamn that is special beer. This is worth waiting in line or giving blood for.

 

Like Whoa instagram announcement with the hashtags, @'s and emojis removed:

Like Whoa. This is that special coming straight outta This has that glowing pour (into that proper glass ), that dank dank aromatic and that legendary combination of tropical juicy hop varieties, smooth smooth full body feels , and a dangerously well masked finish to round out the Big Big the from and for linking on this exceptional B2 of (honestly better than B1 IMO) For a fact (and will confirm) that pink can is hands down the best - tell your traders what’s up That last Like Whoa drop was one of OH’s most historic, and saw 700 cases vanish in 2 hours on an epic day that was actually captured in a documentary Without a doubt has been instrumental in bringing the NY beer community We can’t wait to get out there Saturday to celebrate their milestone 5th Anniversary
