Other Half (2019)

Glad I stayed away. This release was a pure soap opera complete with people risking frost bite, requests for others to commit suicide (by poisoning themselves) and lost and found people with families at home worrying. It's hard to believe beer has anything to do with any of this.

 

Don’t forget the brawl, hibachi and the tent

 

I didn't. I've got that slated for Season 2.

 

this was the jersey shore/made in Staten Island of beer releases. Awesome.

 

Maybe your hyperbole detector is in the shop right now, but holy shit that's still a ton of alcohol.

If that's "light work" for you, it might be time to re-evaluate your habits.

 

Please take a mug shot of Kevin and send to other half so they can brew “Kevin: Lost and Found at OH anniversary release DDH DIPA”. I envision a label looking like the back of a milk carton.

All jokes aside, glad he is OK.

 

MTV presents #lynelife

s1ep1 - the #hazebois are back in town
s1ep2.- #brisketbrawl
s1ep3 - boozical chairs
s1ep4 - haze gramps yells at cloud
s1ep5 - to pee or not to get a public urination ticket
s1ep6 - is daddy coming home today?

 

Brilliant, just brilliant!!

PS - saw an Instagram post of hazeboiz dropping down 12 empty chairs.

 

And no good reason why Jeff Probst and Mark Burnett would not be interested in a Season 39 Survivor - Other Half.

 

Are OH IPAs just getting that much better or are the iterations worse? Cracked a 3rd just now and i'm finding it maltier than I remembered.

It's drinkable, but comparable to 2nd when it was fresh last year. Don't kick yourself for missing out on this one.

 

I get waiting in line for good beer in perhaps the middle of nowhere Massachusetts, but NYC has so much good beer readily available that it doesn't make sense to me. That said, I'm no stranger to the excitement 5 year old birthdays create. At the end of the day this cranky alcoholic got his 5th without waiting so that will keep me from complaining for a day or two.

 

Is it wrong that I hope it’s the latter?

 

Now that we know he is safe, all jokes are fair game now....

Introducing the next comedian, everyone’s favorite #hazepecker @rozzom , take the stage....

 

No, that’s for the next beer in the series with the daydream treatment...
“Kevin’s Daydream: was he really lost and found at the OH anniversary release DDH DIPA with oats and a hint of lactose”

 

Join me. Women in Kimonos > Dudes in Lines.

 

End of every episode needs a mule of the week. Some real contenders this week, if I might say so. I was on center street and they came around to give wristbands, some guy gave a hand signal and 8 guys got out of two parked cars. Ring leader is some kind of Mule Overlord.

 

I love this thread.

 

As I approached Smith and 9th station on the F train I made eye contact with a random guy who was also carrying a large bag. We gave the whole "we know what's up" look and started talking as we exited the station. Within minutes @Feaor realized it was me, after a few comments about Beeradvocate. It was nice to hang out with him and some other strangers sharing some beer and shooting the shit, even though it was fucking freezing. We got there a little before 5:30am, and stood right by McDonald's which was by far the farthest back I've ever been, so I wasn't sure if I'd get anything other than 5th. Fortunately, they reduced limits more than I expected, and I ended up getting everything I wanted, so kudos to Other Half for doing that.

That said, the chair thing is pretty inexcusable, as is not managing the line better by dictating when wristbands are going out, so that people have frame of reference for when to start getting in line. Also available case counts. I know these points have been hounded on time and time again, but these types of releases need to be better managed.

Haven't cracked any of the cans yet, but tried OG, 5th and the two stouts on tap. All were really great, the banana stout was insane
