    For anyone who missed Street Fruit during the JWB events, it's pouring at As Is right now

    I am kind of on board with the stacks hate. Not finding many positives on this. To add insult to injury it was more expensive.

    Are you talking about the one that makes blueberry milkshake IPAs and beers with several sentence long titles? Or the one that makes lemongrass clam beers and wasabi sours? :wink:


    While I wasn't a big fan of Stacks either (Reminded me of a boring version of El Dorado) I don't know if hate is the appropriate word to use - not every OH beer can appease every palate

    Think the next release will be a collab and All Green Everything.

    This may be a bit of an odd request, anyone in northern NJ have empty cans they are willing to part with from OH? Looking for their signature beers (Hop Showers, Green Diamonds, All Green Everything). Would take others. Looking to make some custom beer coasters from them. PM me.

    Which collab do we think this will be? They have been posting so many pics lately. Pumped to get some more AGE. Just had my last can from the previous release last weekend.

    Quick question. Other Half IPA, Small Green Everything, Veldrijden Love, Forever Ever, Smoke Screens Oil Slicks, Peach Wood Aged and All Citra Everything will be imported here... any must try beer among them?

    Did they add El Dorado hops to Stacks for this batch? I recall seeing Citra/Mosaic only on the draft board last time and saw they mentioned El Dorado on their Instagram post when they announced the release.

    90% sure Stacks on Stacks always had El Dorado.

    Yup always had it ^

    It was weird that that beer was released at the same time as lambo door that has a very similar hop bill & oscillation 2 or 3 did as well

    probably the hops that were most readily available at the time...?

    Anyone know why the Stacks cans have so much sediment? Can't remember ever having any beer from OH thus far with any now that I think about it.

    Came here to ask this as well...

    I know they have a centrifuge now...but their beers seem less hazy and more...chunky?

    It's the Tired Hands influence.

    I'm thinking about trying to culture the strain though it didn't seem to have quite as much sediment as All Citra Everything.

    I wonder if it's a result of trying to squeeze a few more cans out or if they're still just learning all the nuances of the centrifuge.

    So the OH/Tired Hands/Omnipollo collab is a White Chocolate Mango IPA. Not too sure how I feel about that. Sounds interesting to say the least

    Very interesting, immediate thought is it sounds terrible.

    I love all 3 of these breweries so I have faith in this beer. Think this will be released at Other Half?
