Other Half Brewing

As in they're not serving beer at all?

 

No they are, its just there's a line to get inside the building itself. You can order whatever beer you want, but its also the same place you order your SuperFuns...

 

Gotcha. Thanks for the quick reply! Probably won't get there until 5.

 

No prob. Hopefully the early rush will have died down by then!

 

Yeah there will be plenty of cans left. The line was no longer than it was for the first bottles.

They were waiting to fill growlers so it wouldn't clog the line. But that was an hour ago.

I was in and out in about 40 minutes with a pour of Stupid Wild.

 

Looks like you and I had the same quantity in mind.

 

No line now! Basically empty here now

 

Haha love the first rush. Kinda glad I waited, hoping to swish my snifter in peace #thehardway

 

Can someone ask if they expect to have cans next Thursday?

 

Yeah I would have gone later this afternoon but had lunch plans. Oh well.

 

Got here at 315. Waited in line for about 10-15 mins tops. Having a glass in the back waiting for my growler to be filled. Crowded but not crazy. Cases are flying off the shelf though from what I can tell.

 

It begins...

I saw that too! Superfun a good beer, but not equal to beers like the ISO.

 

Left about 10 minutes ago. Usual line inside the taproom. Guy handing out the cans felt confident they would be available Thursday.

 

A month or so ago you told me that people wouldn't even be waiting in line for Green Diamonds cans. You may not be paying close enough attention to the beer scene here in the city for the last 12 months.

Less than 350 cases, to answer whoever asked. In the 200s.

 

You've got to be kidding. I never had Superfun before, so I only purchased 2 4-packs. Didn't want to splurge on a full case with the possibility that I wouldn't like the beer. With 2 4-packs, I can easily share with friends over the next week or two if I don't like the beer.

Just cracked my first can. It is a nice beer, with good flavor and body for a session ale. However, it is definitely not at the same level as SOS or "other great IPAs".

2 4-packs will suite me just fine.

 

Granted many people know of OH now because of the BA cover story. So now many people are wondering what it tastes like. I'm sure someone will trade something for a taste.

 

I agree. However, this might give a bad impression as its not on the same level as the beer the person is seeking (or the other person will be giving up to acquire Superfun). They should hold out and wait for GD, because that beer is definitely up their with some of the best IPAs being produced in the Northeast at this time.

 

The superfun label design is superawesome
