    I'm planning on heading over to the brewery (for the first time) around 1pm on Saturday... will it be a scene?

    Went this past Saturday at 12:45 and it wasn't too bad. No seats at the tables but elbow room at the bar along the side wall.

    i see Hop Showers is on tap for growler fills at Good Beer in the city for those that can't make it out to Brooklyn. Wanted to stop by myself today but did not get the chance.

    Why, so you can rip them off?

    Oooh drama. Y'all should be requesting some compensatory Other Half growlers from this bad trader.

    Much as I hate the idea of someone trying to rip someone else off, will posting in an unrelated regional thread really make any difference?

    "Shit guys - you found me"

    maybe yes maybe no, but he comes here and other BAs should know what he did. He should at least answer the bad trader thread. Didnt mean to highjack this thread.

    When I talked to Matt when they first opened, he mentioned that one of the first bottled beers they would release would be a very tiny batch - 50 gallons or so. any idea if this is that small batch He mentioned most of the other stuff would be easier to get - 1200 or more bottles or so.

    I think they told me the first bottle was going to be the stout that they had on recently. Maybe I misheard?

    I was at District Tap House for Green Diamonds, glad to see their beers throughout NYC.

    I will be at brewery around 12-1 for growler fills and a beer if anyone wants to hang for a bit.

    Brand new to BA here - finally got a chance to check out OHBC yesterday and was fairly impressed.
    Green Diamonds,Superfun, Hop Showers and All Green I thought were quite solid for a first go round but I was most impressed with Ultramagnetic.(collab with Stillwater Brewing)
    Will have to check back and also looking forward to when they start canning..

    Made it out to the tasting room on Saturday as well. Wasn't that crowded when we got there then it got packed. I think a bachelor party was there... anyway, had all the IPA and pale ales on draft and thought they were all pretty solid. Think my favorite is still the Superfun! Right up there with Zombie Dust imo

    I had Superfun! at Blind Tiger and would probably say that is my favorite beer I've had from OH so far (Citra was really good too). Seems they got 100% out of those hops without the beer getting at all bitter.
