Other Half (2019)

Oh hell yeah stopping over now to grab beers before moving stuff!

 

Anybody know how much Citra + Galaxy there seems to be? Probably can’t get there till closer to 1 pm, and wondering if it’ll all be gone.

 

On my way I’ll let you know

 

HV collab is gone, sold out right b4 I got there. Looks like a decent amount of the dual hop and literally no one in sight

 

Seems like they are down to the last 10 or so cases of Citra + Galaxy, doubt it lasts more than an hour. Good amount of everything else.

 

Oh no I’ve been made, time to abandon ship! Haha I think I remember that... Was it their anniversary or the Hudson Valley event?

I can’t make it on Monday but hopefully I’ll be available whenever the next weekend meetup is decided, would love to meet y’all IP.

It’s been a few months since I’ve made my way to the brewery for a weekend release. Real nice to roll in around 1030 to no line.

 

Just left. Got a 4 of dual hops but yeah looks low

 

It’s nice that we’re considering meeting up more frequently pretty much right when I finally actually move to Brooklyn.

 

All right, you lactose-ridden chuckleheads, I'm willing to saddle up again and give this here rodeo another try. Enough has already been said about my departure that I don't wish to rehash it except to say that I will gladly bear my share of the blame. Careful as I tried to be to target my criticism on an idea or way of being rather than any person who didn't truly exemplify it, I recognize I may have slightly missed my mark. I sought to make that clear in my follow-up post, but by that point the damage was done. Let's let bygones be bygones.

It's obvious that this thread is populated by a preponderance of good, smart, and fair-minded folks. And that the laughter and camaraderie are what matters most, as they should on a message board purportedly devoted to beer advocacy. Indeed, had I not felt this way when I was just an observer, I never would have opted in in the first place. Nor would I have returned now.

 

To those who’ve already gone over today, how does it look for Mylar and Stacks to be available through the early evening?

 

They had about 3/4 of a pallet at least of those when I got there at 12:30-ish.

 

Good I’d say

 

Someone brought cans to the Carmine street beers 6th anniversary party, agree on the genetically OH in a good way

 

I rather liked the HVB collab and would go so far as to say it is better than most collabs in standing out among Other Half's multitude of excellent IPA's. I got sweet melon notes up front, finishing with light bitterness. Very enjoyable to drink.

 

Drinking the HV collab now. Real good. I can’t make this money but pencil me in for a weekday once I get back from Europe

 

Also peep hop showers labels in the back.

 

Had the HVB collab on draft and thought it was incredible. Missed cans by an hour but a little birdie told me that next week is the 'Sour IPA'

 

Welcome back! Just you wait until you are blind taste testing 'tosed-up IPA's at Other Half on a weeknight with these guys...this will all be a distant memory.

 

Even as a total ACE ho, I think this is a fantastic batch. Almost wish I hadn’t got Mylar/dual and just stocked up on that. Looking forward to trying the HV collab on draft
