Other Half (2020)

It's on the same page as curbside but you provide an address for validation at checkout.

 

No thanks, drain pouring 24 cans could be very painful.

 

yeah they didn’t really advertise beyond an Instagram story. You can toggle it in curbside section as @BLazarus22 said. The area is (roughly) east river to the west, prospect park west to the east, 30th street to the south and Atlantic av to the north

 

ACE is same as last batch. Absolutely solid and any quibbles on very much of a relative basis. But not a special/stellar batch [please sweet sweet baby Jesus, remake the HDHC ACE].

The #ilovelocals bike delivery was executed very much in the #OHhateslocals style we know and love - arrived nearly two hours after the communicated delivery time (kidding - I really could care less - was awesome to have it delivered to my door, and thanks to the dude who dropped it off)

what I’m intrigued by is how are those galaxy CDOs tasting?

 

Never had a Juicy Bits but SB tastes like a really good batch of Diamonds. Nothing new to see, but if you're a galaxy/SD fan it's a no brainer.

 

Uh-oh....I see new guy vs. hazegramps on the horizon. Get your popcorn.

 

When is it no longer too soon to use #covidnose to blame for us bitching about off batches? I swear my taste buds are off since I got sick 2 months ago.

 

Grasshopper, no one beat NewmansOwn's IG reflexes.

In for the galaxies, please don't be bad, need some goodness to get through this Smarch weather.

 

The have my HDHC All Citra twice, right? One was the "Experimental" and then it became HDHC?

Wasn't able to try that but Citra+Mosaic was delicious.

 

@patmcd not sure how many times they've made the ACE but between that, AGE, and now Green City I personally haven't noticed much difference from the more common DDH treatment. I missed C+M hopefully it returns this summer!

 

A few Rochester releases slipped into the curbside site. Bought all three since Spacey and Dusted keep going in and out of stock. Just a heads up for anyone looking.

 

I loved diamond reflection but apparently galaxy hops are literal poison these days or at least according to this thread so I’m good

 

That’s why I grabbed the ‘dusted’. I’m hoping the cryo pellets are less poisonous.

 

HDHC ACE (the one actually labelled that way; so not the experimental one) was definitely stellar/notch above even the best batches of normal/ddh ace

 

Galaxy ****s rejoice!!! Dusted is great

 

Spacey Bits is tasting great, this isn't the bad Galaxy from the mirror universe, you know it looks the same but has a goatee.

 

If anyone tries this batch of Diamond Reflection let us know. Loved it on tap the few times I had it, but the previous batch I got in cans wasn't good.

 

Dusted tastes great. Super smooth blend of hops, tastes like OJ/melon mix of flavor with slight bitter finish. Def has an extra pow to it.

For the galaxy fans, I’d also recommend Grimm new release Magnetic Cloud. Super tasty

 

Does anyone fully understand the availability of curbside options? Beers are going in and out of available versus sold out. Is it possible they are just stuck in peoples’ carts before they have checked out?

For reference, when I ordered at 8:00 AN, ACE, Spacey Bits and Dusted were listed as sold out, but those three were available at later points in the day.

 

Seems like they're releasing stuff in batches throughout the day for some reason. I had the same problem yesterday, had stuff in my cart and before I could finish checking out was told it sold out. But then a few hours later was available and in stock throughout the night. My guess is they're trying to prevent people from just jamming orders in early and then picking up later that day
