    A little surprised as many people are doing the same as me and getting mostly or only Galaxy. Most orders seemed to be 3 Galaxy and 1 or 2 AGE.

    Galaxy was the beer that got me stoked on OH back when they opened, and seemed like they dropped it after that first month or two.

    Zero line plenty of beer. Tap room not that crowded either.

    I have a confession to make. I took the escalator at the second set of stairs :/

    Got a four pack of each and a pour of Oat Junkie(which was great).
    Super smooth release...I appreciate them switching it up here and there

    This batch of AGE is great. Not as hot as the last batch.

    Boy I could get used to these weeknight releases. Thanks to OH for showing love to the locals. Great to have a few beers in the tap room on a release night without being elbowed for space.

    While I appreciate them switching it up so us NYers can get our share, it sucks for people who have to work on the other side of the island and havr actual obligations. It takes me over an hour to get home to Long Beach and I cant just go right back out and spend another 2 hours on the road.

    I must say I'm really appreciative that this brewery does such extensive work with single hopped beers...these releases have educated me so much on these hop varieties

    Hauled a gym bag, a backpack & two plastic bags of beer back to Midtown on the train. Thankfully I was going the opposite direction of everyone leaving the island so I could grab a seat. Very smooth release. Got to try some beers & chat with a bunch of cool folks. Went homer & started to spread the gospel about Lone Pint Yellow Rose. Got to see @Tbub18 again briefly and talk with @RobNewton. I look forward to seeing the rest of yall at other releases in the future! Thx for the advice, it was invaluable.
