    Isn’t this really an example of #otherhalfloveslocals? Yesterday’s release had an awesome selection and was a breeze to get through and if a local wants the trillium collab or stout can show up at basically any time today to get it with minimal #linelyfe presence??

    How long do we think this release will last?

    #otherhalfloveslocals isn't a thing

    Not sure. The stouts have been sitting a while and it isn't a collab bottle. Given the collab is a pilsner, it shouldn't sell out too quickly.

    I'm banking on being able to go by after work tomorrow rather than needing to run out today.

    Probably through the week. Pilsners aren't hot sellers, even if it is a Trillium collab, and since the Orbit bottles lasted for a few weeks I can't imagine the S'mores stout selling out too quickly.

    What's up with all the Cognac BA stuff from Other Half? I don't think I've seen many breweries doing Cognac BA stuff, although Trillium just dropped an Imperial Stout aged in Cognac Puncheons.

    Just opened a bottle, lots of cognac on the nose but I don’t really taste much barrel, probably because of how sweet it is. Marshmallow really comes through. Obviously it’s sweet but not maple creamies sweet.

    This batch of Hop Showers w/ simcoe is outstanding. Maybe my favorite of the ddh variants thus far. Even had a can of ACE afterwards and was shocked that I enjoyed the showers more.

    Yeah, though that Hop Showers has a lot of the flavors that makes me think OH's house yeast is a belgian strain.
