Other Half (August 2018)

Ah, I see it was Citra/Medusa that you missed which was good but not top tier. I misread. Cheers!

 

Thanks to those providing advice previously. Showed up at 10 and just walked up and bought a couple cases - crazy. The Citra+cashmere is insane. Has anyone had small Nelson?

 

It’s a great time to visit OH @utah

 

I really liked small Nelson. But my beer diet is very nelson deficient so I'm happy to get what I can and admit I don't know the hop as well as I'd like.

 

Citra + Cashmere is fantastic, also definitely agree on Cream of Broccoli, it’s not terrible but I’m glad I passed on cans.

 

If any can ever needed to be printed, it’s Mylar Bags.

 

Citra cashmere is fantastic

 

Warms my heart every time you post and I look to the left !

Hadn’t looked up the general ratings for OH beers for months. Shocked how close to the top triple citra is (albeit with a low number of reviews)

 

Louder = Better as far as ratings go on all of the different platforms basically. That's why the top beers are basically BA/Adjunct Imperial Stouts or Imperial IPAs with a smattering of fruited sours.

 

Yeah for sure I’m with you re: how things work round here. I just didn’t think it was remotely close enough to being “very good”, to credibly qualify for the beer advocate fruited/sour/barrel-aged/high abv/triple dry hopped score multiplier

 

Oh yea definitely, I thought it was the weakest of the 3 of that series. Honestly I'm kinda 'tosed out at this point, DMDD is the only one I really like but I'll still buy Space Daydream and Double Citra just cause worse versions of Space Diamonds and ACE are still worth it, pass on the rest of them.

 

This week feels an awful lot like it’s gonna get real god damn Party Boosted, amirite?

 

I contributed to that triple Citra ratings boost. Thought it was pretty awesome, actually. Not a big fan of the triples outside of the anniversary beers. The space hallucinations was a bit of a disappointment, especially considering how much I love OH galaxy beers. But that triple Citra was so drinkable and delicious.

 

Makes sense. And really well done.

 

Opened my bottle of vanilla futerz tonight. I enjoyed the 4oz I had at the taproom a couple weeks ago, but man this was straight cough syrup. Even split between three I couldn’t finish it

 

Damn. Missed the keg by about an hour, but was able to grab a bottle. Guess I'll let this one sit for a bit.

 

I thought Vanilla Futurez was hot when I tried it on draft so I'm letting it sit, honestly everything OH has done that's 13+% probably could use a bit.

Also this release was honestly amazing, Mylar is amazing as always and both Citra+Cashmere and Small Nelson are excellent.
