    correct, it's not nice.

    Again, OH posted case amounts and limits. There are hundreds of pages on these forums regarding releases. It's not Other Half's job to make sure everyone is happy.

    and the original post is that they wanted to try the new beer with experimental hops. You can do that at the brewery right now. Could have had it on draft all week. I really don't see what the problem is or what Other Half did wrong to make someone upset.

    What's the difference between dream in green that was on tap last week and the daydream in green cans besides the abv? Both delicious just curious here.

    Yes. Dream is a single. Daydream is a double. I'm also not sure if Dream has the lactose sugar. It might not.

    I can't wait for Dream cans.

    So is there any of the bottled stouts left? Asking for a friend. I might be that friend.

    Daydream is an imperial version of Dream

    I'll be more pumped when Dream in Green makes it to cans. I need some 6%ers in the fridge

    Checked in here to see how these 2 new ones taste. Instead I have to sift through the usual whiny bitchfest. If you want to get whatever you want, they get up and go wait in line. If you don't want to do that then stop comaining, geez...this wasn't directed at anyone specifically, just in general. Anyway, looking forward to trying both!

    This is a message board. People are going to talk about the topic at hand and give opinions. It's what it is set up for.

    Has anyone tried either of these beers yet? This forum is a flat circle sometimes

    A lengthy complaint about being upset about people complaining.

    Both cans tasting awesome. Daydream is killer and very different for OH. Almost zero bitterness. Oats give the beer an incredible mouth feel. Tired Hands adjacent.

    I understand both sides of the argument. I also understand OH is a business and they want to do what is best for business. I have no qualms with that nor do I have any intention to tell them how to run their business. They obviously know what they are doing.

    Just want to say however that these two beers would have easily sold out today even if a four 4-pack limit was put in place. It might have lasted, what, another hour? I wanted the beers but I also needed sleep. I chose sleep. No regrets here. If I wanted them I should have woke up earlier. Life goes on.

    Also, just wondering, does anyone know why the low yield of cases occurred today? Are they planning something epic for next week?

    Drinking a Socks now and it is fascinating. Creamy, light and no alcohol but the hop blend is very unique compared to most OH beers. Decidedly distinct.

    Look, we're all on here because we dig OH beer. I don't think people were claiming they don't care about their customers. My point was only that I think it's perfectly reasonable to express disappointment for missing out or wishing smaller batches would have smaller limits to spread things around. I'm all for debating and arguing points, but I don't like when people belittle or dismiss others just for expressing opinions, even negative ones.

    I think a one case per person limit would be fine. Split it up amongst that week's releases however you want.

    As it stands, some greedy Gus can show up with his girlfriend and walk out with 4-6 cases.

    I went to Greenpoint today since OH sold out and am currently enjoying an Instant Credibility.
