    +1 on Galaxy, but Amarillo is the best beer they've put out!

    I'm gonna have to pull out my last can for a reappraisal of Amarillo. You've made me question everything.

    So, cracked my growler of WBOHIO last night. Wow! That is an excellent Imperial Stout. I'd actually say my favorite thing I brought home from the Street Green release.

    Worth trying if you like big roasty, chocolaty, coffee/espresso type Imperial stouts. Definitely a stand out.

    I totally agree, I think its a bit bitter on the finish. Nothing a little age cant help. However it is an excellent stout for sure.

    Just wait for the different BA versions. :slight_smile:

    (though will be a while for those to age)

    I was lucky enough to have a very nice friend give me a can of Street Green yesterday and I have to say I think it’s one of my favorite, if not my favorite canned beer from Other Half, right up there with Mosaic.

    Absolutely looking forward to that. The regular version was so good, I think my head might explode with the BA versions.

    So I sat out this weekend due to not having that many hours to spend on a line, but obviously I'm still a little curious - did we confirm that street green will in fact be back on this wed?

    Tried a new GD vs a GD from the previous batch. Big difference, folks. Drink 'em sooner!

    I'm sticking to my guns and going Wednesday. Would love to know for sure, but for me, I need that imperial stout in my life with or without Street Green. I will update on Street Green when I arrive.

    Is hop showers / simcoe confirmed for next release? Curious how people know this.

    Definitely going to hit next release. Do people seem to think it will go back to Normal lines? Not street green levels.

    Employees usually say it, not very secretive and the lines might be a little longer then normal from here on out IMO because other half has a bit more hype now

    I've got to think that the next release will be close to normal. The beers being released aren't quite so limited, thus causing less hype, resulting in fewer people traveling for far away. That said, Hop Showers is my favorite of OH's regular rotation, and I love me some Simcoe, so I'm going to try and make it.

    I dont think it will be anything like this past weekend. I anticipate it going back to close to normal, maybe a little more busy. They beers are not "limited" and dont have the collab title attached to them so people dont go as crazy.

    Agreed, I would actually be surprised if either of these beers sells out on release day. I love hop showers as well but am sitting this release out due to work, this past weekends time commitment, black Friday the following week, etc. I hope to make it to a December can/bottle release though!
