Wow been a while since my last post! My apologies. Will have some great content coming out this week.
Other Half Green Diamonds Double IPA. Other Half Brewing Company, Brooklyn, NY. American Double IPA 9.1% ABV.
Served chilled from a can at Upright Brew House and poured into a glass (also had it again last night and drank part from a pint glass and some from the can. This was the best picture though...) Pours a cloudy golden-amber color with a frothy two finger foam head that dissipates quickly. Smells are sweet and citrusy, and the New Zealand hop character really shines through. Carbonation is moderate with a medium body. Taste is incredibly hoppy, and the citrusy hops are the most powerful part of the taste. Hints of grapefruit, mango and the caramel malt. It is a very dank and hoppy beer that I would buy any chance I see it on a menu.
Other Half's first foray into canning was a massive success. I would put this up there with my favorite DIPAs, and put it pretty darn close to Heady. I actually like this a lot more than the All Green Everything, Other Half's most famous IIPA. Can't wait to have this one again-if you see it, buy out the store. You won't be disappointed.
