    I feel like that's what a lot of OH beers converge to eventually!

    I just cracked open a OH 3rd Anniversary yesterday and it still tastes fantastic

    Anyone list to the GBH podcasts from Beavertown Brewery's get together? Sam from OH was in attendance for one of the discussions and said they stand behind their beers for four months.

    Sure, but that isn't the same thing as saying the taste is the same during all 4 months.

    I can say with certainty Zamboni is just as bad today as when it was released. Tastes like a bad batch of other half IPA.

    yeah, very glad I was able to have a pour of Zamboni before I purchased cans that day.

    I liked Zamboni, there is a sweet creaminess and a hop bite in the background I enjoyed. Send it on over!

    You clearly had an opinion since you claimed NYPD presence was a “black eye” on your experience. If a resident or business owner calls them it is their job to respond. I’m sure you would get sick of people drinking in front of your property every single Saturday starting at 6am.

    Just make sure I’ve had a couple of IPAs prior to the discussion to make it that more interesting.

    As if, who can even drink what they call IPA these days?

    If people want boozy orange juice just mix some screwdrivers.

    Ughhh, I had a Troon that was released two Saturdays ago. Tasted like shitty malt liquor.

    This isn't "normal"? What year do you think it is? This is the kind of comment I usually only see in Tree House Facebook groups.

    2017? Now I’m second guessing myself though

    Is lining up for beer some sort of progressive movement?

    I'm going to hold an OH can for 4 months for science purposes. It'll either be DDH Hop Showers w/Motueka or DDH AEE. I'll post about it on January 13th.....

    hmm 2 cans and one is a porter.

    The JW Lee yeast strain is the same one they used in Tremendous Ideas which I think had a breadier taste than usual Other Half. Should be interesting how it effects the Citra.

    That will def sell out... the porter not so much. Hopefully the stout they had in the keg list is a mid-week drop. Would be happy just picking that up.

    Hoping the ACE is a double batch. Hey, someone had to say it! :grin:

    Also - still four 4-pks allocation this week for ACE, so not a one week trend!

    Wonder what happened to the Stout that was mentioned in the keg email? This version of ACE sounds really cool but I dunno about the Porter, stone fruit character sounds weird in a malty beer, peach and apricot sounds like it would clash.
