    I got space diamonds and the mimosa one. Space diamonds tastes as great as ever. Thought mimosa was ok but nothing special. Definitely hides the ABV tho

    I used to think people who said Space Diamonds was as good or better than Double Galaxy were crazy, but when SD is on, its close.

    Did you just insinuate this beer is a joke and then buy a 4 pack of it?

    Hahaha

    Ok I have a legit excuse

    We were going round to a friends place for brunch. They both like beer. They asked us to bring OJ. I thought this would be a good alternative solution haha

    But you’re right. I’m hanging my head in shame. At least (thank god) I didn’t go on record as loving it

    Amazing if there's actually 15 to go bet options right now as Untappd indicates. I'd guess a few sold out last night though.

    Also, that Grimm version of Jam was amazing- it had this salty hit up front that perfectly accentuated a very light peanut flavor before massive chocolate covered berries hit. Great mouth feel. Dangerously smooth at 17%. I didn't try the cherry OH brewed version, anyone have both and can compare?

    "Arrangements" is the winner of the new releases for me. Tastes like a sharper anniversary beer.

    They need to organize their line better for pours. Some people wait in line and others just walk right up to the right when the person is free. Causes a whole bunch of confusion and today, an almost fight between 2 soccer mom looking ladies.

    There’s times where I get in the line cos it would seem like a dick move otherwise (even though it’s a bar so there’s no need - but you know, where everyone lining and all the servers serving that line). But when it’s like 7-8 people in “the line” being served by one person, and two or three other bartenders spread out along the bar waiting to serve someone - yeah I’m going to them

    When I went this week to pick up cans, there was a line of people going back into the tasting room so I hopped on. The beerwithflavor guy told people to just come up to the bar so everyone just bum rushed the counter.

    As an aside I'm still not sure if you're supposed to grab cans from the front or that side area with the merch.

    To be clear, l liked this post because of a potential soccer mom fight at OH; not because I think OH needs to organize their pours .

    Should be the merch area I think. But generally seems to be the front area

    People just need to go to the bar. They usually signal for that as the line gets dumb (like when people start standing in the doorway).

    Just like wondering why people line-up at all for cans, why are people waiting in line in tap room? There is no line, people should evenly disperse across the bar. If I see people lining up in one line, I just go to an area where no one is waiting and walk right up to a bartender. Nothing against soccer moms, but people are stupid if they get in one line for a bar that is 20 feet long and has 4 or 5 bartenders.

    But is it really a bar? I’ve only been there a handful of times so maybe I’m unaware but I’ve never seen anyone actually chilling at the bar drinking. It seems like it’s more of a service counter with multiple POS’s, which would kind of justify the line.
