Other Half Brewing Thread (May 2016)

I was going to say almost the exact same thing. It was quite good, but not as good as last year's mosaic. Maybe the hops were just not as interesting this year!

 

Na bro, there has to be a collab. somewhere

 

I agree with all of the above with Mosaic. But I thought Double Mosaic Dream was fantastic so im not convinced its due to the mosaic crop this year.

 

Anyone have links to video of the line?

 

So all 3 cans are gone, yes?

 

Considering they just brewed a collab with The Answer and re-brewed Debbie Downer, I would expect another double collab+ release in two weeks.

 

Yes. OH posted that they sold out on their Instagram a couple hours back.

 

Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure I heard the words "another month" from the dude ringing me up today when it comes to Debbie Downer.

 

Currently working on All Dank Everything. After having all three of today's releases my breakdown is as follows:

All Citra>Telectroscopic>All Dank Everything.

Not really digging All Dank as much as I thought I would. Lots of tea notes with a generalized sweetness to it. Not what I was expecting from a beer named "All Dank Everything." There's really nothing "dank" about this beer, if you ask me.

Lesson learned. I think City Slickers and Lime Green Galaxies were both far superior beers to the newcomers offered up for this release. All Citra can hold its own, but I honestly think the hype for the other two was completely unwarranted.

Oh well. You live and you learn.

 

Agreed. I got there at 6:45 and was at the corner of Smith and Garnet. It was nice weather, met some cool people and had a good time without drinking.

 

Be careful, with a name like your's, you might automatically be a jerseywhalezbro bro, bro.

 

C'mon now...we all know #whalezcrew starts drinking way earlier than 6:45.

He's in the clear.

 

Haven't seen GD in a while, would be nice for another release.

Also, how the hell do people drink strong IPAs at 5am? Lord.

 

I'm not sure this is what they meant when they said it's o'clock somewhere!

 

Curious... anyone know what made the line move so fast today?

 

They've been moving that fast consistently since the addition of the third (cash) register.

 

All good stuff, worth the wait. Met alot of cool people today who appreciate what these guys are doing.

 

I was on line at 530 (disgusting I know) and we were maybe 75+ in line, I think they saw the amount of people they had waiting and really had to buckle down. It was worse than any release I have seen from OH. The line was almost 5 blocks away by 7 am, which i told everyone would happen a few pages back in this thread. Beers are drinking great, all citra is better than the first batch, Dank i agree was not what i thought it was going to be....still by no means a bad beer.

 

I also think this was one of the few releases where people consistently maxed out on their allotment where it moved things along.
