Other Half (2020)

They announced the pastrytown brewers. Looks like a really good list.

 

Where are you seeing this?

Edit: nm found it https://pastrytown.otherhalfbrewing.com/

Very interested to see what they bring, especially Side Project

 

What time will people be there until I won’t make it until 730ish bc I work late. Quiet cosmos was really good!

 

I wont get there until 6:30-ish so I'll probably be hanging for a bit if you get there at 7:30

 

No line. Have mostly everything, but out of all cashmere, which was what I came for, but I’m gonna try it in the taproom.

Edit: jk it’s not on tap

overheard one of the guys telling someone who asked for recommendations that Blue Chroma is the OH Brewmaster’s favorite beer they’ve done in awhile.

 

Guess the Haymaker all cash drop caused the sell out. Still weird they dropped a beer less than a week old and not the stuff they have trouble moving. Most chromas for me weren’t as good as beers from Bk. Some of the double or the DDH versions were better. By all accounts recent simcoe beers have been off the charts. Last batch of Forever Simcoe was amazing and I never by Double Simcoe Daydream but I did for a NYE party and it was great as well. So maybe that carries over to blue chroma

 

Anyone try the new beers?

 

You could replace Centre Street with almost every OH IPA and that description would work.

 

All Cashmere out at Haymaker too. Was hoping to pick one up.

 

Couple of times I had to pound a OH pounder on the Smith & 9th platform bc of this.

 

Is this the Smith & 9th speed run? You have 3 categories, >6%/8%/<10%. You have to pound the beer before the G or the F comes.

 

Blue Chroma at $16 could be the steal of the decade or continuing proof that beers priced at $16 are destined to gather dust on pallets.

 

Straight facts, that beer was insane.

I kinda hate myself for saying this, but I wish Other Half started doing more glassware again, but not necessarily tekus, and not pint glasses.

 

First time picking up some OH cans in a while and just a PSA Voluminous has that elusive green melon aroma/flavor. I wish OH would note before buying if any cans have that flavor because I would automatically buy for just that reason. It doesn’t seem to be a specific hop thing because different beers of theirs have had this flavor, I wonder if it’s related to using a slightly different yeast. Either way would love to know before deciding which cans to grab!
