    I thought it tasted even better with a month on it. Those green melon notes turned to straight melon candy.

    Being that cans will be available at 3pm, will be interesting to see how long they last specifically Green Power (top 3 for me this year), many folks who work in the city can't get to the brewery before 530-6.

    I don't have a problem with people who live in NJ (given that I was born and raised there) and drive out for can releases, but there is this weird entitlement issue that some people have where if there is a release they can't get to, they take it as a personal insult, despite the fact that other people may find it more convenient. I'm not going to be in NYC Saturday, so these mid-weeks drops are a Hanukkah miracle for me.

    Some dude on a OH FB group made a post bitching about the mid week release and how he cant miss work. By the time it hit 70 replies he had changed his tune and was planning on going.

    The entitlement is strong with OH customers. Hell I am flying in to LGA at 1130 hitting my cousin place on the UES and heading right to OH. This is awesome for me. I may even bring some FL stouts to share.

    I personally love weekday releases, its way easier for me to get to OH from my office than from my apartment.

    Other Half releases beer 1 to 2 times EVERY WEEK ! Do people hit these releases every time? If so, how much beer can they drink? If not, who cares about missing a week, there is always next week.

    The guy did a lot of Razzle posts with his allotments. I think he is mad that he may be losing profits this week.

    Razzles are a candy that once chewed, mix to transform into chewing gum. Originally introduced in 1966, with an advertising slogan and jingle of, "First it's a candy, then it's a gum. Little round Razzles are so much fun."

    Plus $10 shipping if Instagram comments are to be believed

    I’ve seen a few pretty hefty beer bros who could probably extract value for $150 all you can eat/drink. But yeah your average person is going to be overpaying

    That's pretty insane, I don't think I could even come close to eating/drinking $150, thats like 15+ beers plus food.

    Don't forget the tax added to the ticket price at checkout...

    $150.00 + $13.31 = $163.31 for single ticket
    $300.00 + $26.63 = $326.63 for two tickets
