    As someone who has had 0 beers from Suarez, I can safely say that Crispy Waves was 100-200x better than anything from Suarez.

    Other Half will most likely be a Crispy Waves factory by 2021, releasing only Crispy Waves and slight variations of it to a a gracious public who simply won't be able to get enough. They will even experiment with a lactose version of Crispy Waves, but the Great Gowanus/Bloomfield/Williamsburg/Bumfuck Maryland Riots it will spark will cause them to immediately erase all evidence of that from the public. It will be a truly amazing time in our lives.

    They see you trollin, they hatin.

    On A serious note, I can't put Hop Showers 5X for my top five, right? What about DDHHS, HS and anything but a pastry stout?

    Was '18 and still was the best Crunchee IMO. Not sure if having the gang from Weldwerks brew that with them made a difference.
    I toyed with Did I Make Myself Clear hitting my top 5 as well.

    Let me add to the fire. I've never had an OH lager because they probably suck compared to Suarez. #teampalatineto189

    It was really good to be fair, dunno about Suarez level since I don't think I've had their Helles more than once but really good.

    Agreed, and I'd add in Red Chroma, Double Red Chroma, and the reformulated Small Citra.

    I don’t drink half as much OH as y’all but I save the pics on my phone of the beers I enjoy the most. Scrolling back...in order of when released.
    1) Oh...Forever (January edition)
    2) I Used to be an Athlete (January collab with Burial)
    3) Stacks on Stacks (September batch)
    4) All Green Everything (November)
    5) Forever Simcoe (December)
    I, of course, excluded any Hop Showers batch. The Vic Secret one was my personal favorite. That last batch of AGE was fire imo.

    Think we should add F and F pizza to food of the 2020 thread.
    #189orbust
    ps - shouldn’t we be aiming for 195, as in Centre Street?

    Shocked that Other Half hasn’t named any of their Trillium collabs 195 Centre Street.

    PS. I believe this drive for 189 is all a ruse by our resident hazepecker to increase his likes in his mission to be BA of the year.
