Other Half (2020)

@Feaor noted you can check the can under the surgeon general's warning for dietary/allergy info that could result in you getting sick. Some one check this out too would be curious if the sites just wrong or they tosed it. That being said, wouldn't surprise me some of these older beers potentially get a pinch of 'tose on occasion these days

 

In a manner of speaking, they have been "distributing" chips...along with pretzels, crackers, nuts, cereals, donuts, ice cream, candy bars, cookies, peanut butter, cake batter, frosting, marshmallows, waffles, chocolate, coconut, berries, (Wild Thai) bananas, heavy cream, and many other foodstuffs I'm forgetting via their beer for years.

And while we all can—and have—questioned the wisdom of that, leaving that junk in the bag at least allows them to now come straight to your home.

 

Had another can of previous batch of Mylar, relatively speaking to the norm of Mylar, the beer is awful.

 

Sooooo no go on the Mylar?

How’s Brocc and Mo+Mo tasting?

 

@jacincm I really enjoyed the can of this batch of Mo+Mo I had and recommend it without reservations or caveats.

 

My regular OH trade partner has the Rona

 

UGH, Broccoli is my jam and I miss it dearly. Enjoy it for me!

 

They just posted that DMD does not contain lactose. Praise be!

 

The Man's been lying to us for years!

 

Enjoying a can of Mylar Arch now- maybe my other Mylar cans will mellow so I can come around to @algebeeric_topology's point of view!

 

Drinking my last Hop Showers right now. Still quite delicious. Only have two beers left from OH and two from Threes from my pre-coronavirus craze Brooklyn trip. Running very low here overall. Next week I’m going to either get something delivered or brave the wilds and do a brewery pickup somewhere.

 

At the risk of being unpopular I thought this batch of Hop Showers was among the worst of the recent ones I’ve had. I got an unpleasant pickle juice taste off it. Almost an acidity that wasn’t intended.

On a positive, just drank my last can of Mylar Arch and it was great.

 

So, I am no epidemiologist, but the OH system for curbside beer seems unbelievably hygienic. The inside of the brewery looks like an ICU with all of the employees in masks; the beers are all wiped down pre sale, and there is more sanitizer and Clorox wipes used to keep everything safe than I’ve seen at any other place that is currently open. OH seems to be doing the best job possible (if you don’t want to stay at home and get some cool ranch Doritos).

 

Not looking to drive into Brooklyn from NJ any time soon even though I love the breweries there. Haven’t gone anywhere in almost 3 weeks since I don’t need to yet. And damn, everyone’s shitting on the beers I got anyway, from Hop Showers to ACE to the overly sweet TIPAs.

 

who are the sick bastards that voted cool ranch doritos over nacho cheese?

 

Yeah usually I tend to agree broadly with people on this board about the core beers/if they're tasting good, so if they're inconsistent there's really no temptation, however hygienic. Makes me appreciate the quality options in NJ.
