    the collabs were easily the weakest part of the box. The double fantasy RPG or whatever might have been one of the worst beers I’ve had in a while. Thought all the broccoli series beers were solid.

    The Green City V3 stout was quite enjoyable for an OH stout too

    Hmm I thought that was the best one so far

    No worries pal, they get the best of us. Grab a case of Hop Showers next time it's available (or any of the OH FLX dipas that continue to fly under the radar) and all will be healed.

    That packaging was incredible.

    I traded half of my case away, and I don't think there was a single beer where I regretted not having the second can.

    I thought the collabs were the best part, but even they were just solid and not great. The Broccoli’s were average at best imo with the Brocsquatch one actually being pretty bad.

    OH and Roberta's right next door to each other, plus the new location offering seltzers and all sorts of cocktails? Stoked for the OG location to lose a lot of traffic to the new spot whenever the new location/the world opens again.

    I kind of hope so. I am all for them being successful but if that new taproom on Centre could be a bit quieter after work I would be thrilled. Of course I'll have to walk right past future Sixpoint to get there so maybe they will also steal some traffic.
    Or maybe I just need to accept I can't live in Brooklyn and get that neighborhood brewery vibe.

    Very curious to see what kind of small batches they turn out at OHDP. Will they go the Threes route and play with old world styles, or will they go full Evil Twin and cater to the Haze and Pastry boiz?

    And an Odd Fellows in between the two! The park is absolutely beautiful. Even without OH up and running yet, it's still a great place to visit. OH's Broccoli-themed "Coming Soon" signs are sweet.

    You've been here too long to ask that.

    I imagine their first beer will be a foeder-fermented pilsner. Oh look ma, a flying pig

    I was a big fan of it, I haven't had regular DDH Stacks though. It's been one of my favorite releases outside of Green City in the past month, or so.

    This is the other half quality that made me fall in love with them. This batch of all green taste as good if not better than all previous batches I've tried. Just spectacular hop juice

    I’m really not a fan of the melon profile, EQ has it in 95% of their IPAs which is why I won’t buy/trade for them anymore. Hoping the melon isn’t becoming an OH thing too, as a bunch of the HDHC week beers were melon bombs. I don’t think it’s a specific hop more of a process thing

    The last 5-7 other half beers I had were crap.
