Other Half Brewing Thread (June 2015)

IAL red wine would be fucking awesome.

 

Anthing good on sale this Thursday or sat?

 

Came here to ask this.

Also, would anyone even be interested in buying something from OH that isn't an IPA? Haha.

Hop Showers is awesome by the way and they should can that shet regularly. AGE is great and better than I remember from a year ago. I'm hoping @rollom can keep supplying me with this drug. Haha.

 

Yes this! My favorite non-IPA from them.

 

Doesn't look like it.

I'd love to see Boogie Board Stuntz or Cool Summer Bro! in cans, especially with summer coming. That Kolsch (Stuntz), while not really screaming "kolsch" to me, is still freaking delicious. Having a 4-pack of that on a Brooklyn rooftop this summer would be a delight.

 

Random question but does anyone know if Other Half sells gift cards and if so can they bought online or just in person.

 

No gift cards. Just give your friend cash with a note that says "For use at Other Half Only".

 

OH tap list anyone?

I will likely make the trip tomorrow and wanted to check what's on tap Thursday night.

Updated by them today. Enjoy!

 

I'm hoping next release is more Hop Showers and a new can release (Superfun, G is for Green, etc). We've seen Green Diamonds and AGE in the past 2 so guessing it is neither of those again.

 

I hope it's something new, but I could see them doing AGE and something else, just because it guarantees a quick turnover of inventory. If it's a Saturday morning release.

 

Stop at OH June 20th for the cans... and after head directly to the owl farm for their third anniversary party.

 

Id like Centennial in cans. Really enjoyed that on tap

 

That Southerly Love is SO GOOD. Prob my favorite beer from Huna Day

 

A lychee IPA (or DIPA...can't remember).

 

I had Forever Ever on tap for the first time today and thought it was much better than Super Fun, I'd definitely pick some up if they decided to can it. Right now I'm having my last can of Hop Showers and it is tasting great, easily my favorite of their canned releases so far. It had me thinking though, would you prefer if OH only canned 2-3 beers regularly (Hops Showers, Green Diamonds and occasionally AGE) and had them readily available (similar to what Carton does) or do you prefer that they continue to can different/new beers every two weeks? While I've enjoyed everything they've put out thus far, being able to grab a couple 4 packs of Hop Showers casually without the crowds is definitely appealing to me. How about you guys?

 

While it is great and I certainly do consider myself lucky to be able to grab growlers or have it on tap (or any OH beer for that matter) so easily, both the price point of the cans as well as the ability to have just one can whenever I want makes the canned offerings much more appealing to me. Regardless, the fact that OH is still such a young brewery and are already pumping out cans on a regular basis makes me feel lucky to be in NYC right now. I just thought it was an interesting question. I missed out on Mosaic so I'm hoping it'll be canned or on tap again soon as well.

 

This is an interesting question. While it would be great to be able to grab the "flagship" cans with more ease, I really like that they've been canning the single hop series. Personally, I would love to see Greenbacks cans! Or I suppose I'd settle for more draft Greenbacks.
