Milky yellow colour, pale as usual, with small head, regular retention. Strong aroma, plenty of fruits, starting with navel oranges, light dankness, hint of calamansi, of zest, and maybe some pineapple. Full bodied, moderately sweet, but the residual sugars can't completely hide the underlying chalk; powerful hop character, there's plenty of good juice (mango, orange, guava), there's some dankness, but also hop burn.
So, in the end, lots of good hops, but the construction seems quite random.

16oz (thx, Alex!) shared with Andriy, Dmytro, and Mykola during open fire stakes party in Belcarra. Appearance: murky golden with a white head. Aroma: very weird, grassy and manure-like at first, but then very juicy and fruity. Taste: juicy and fruity, nice body, smooth. Overall: good one.

On tap at Superflux. Pours opaque yellow. Aroma has dank hops doused in hop burn. Flavour has citrus and dank hops covered in chalk dust and finished with hop burn. Based on the one Other Half beer I've had, this tastes like their hop work plus the characteristic Superflux chalky bullshit.

Nov 19, 2024 (7/3/8/3/15=3.6): Poured from 473mL can. Opaque yellow with small white head. Muted tropical hops with a very mild juiciness, hint of hop burn on the finish. Overall the hops are a bit muddled, but it's still decent overall. Oct 14, 2024 (8/3/7/3/15=3.6): Poured from the tap @ Superflux. Completely opaque yellow with minimal white head. Sweet underlay that mutes some of the harsh hop burn that Superflux has come to be known for. Mild dankness, light tropical hops, minimal hop burn, not sure why the hate for this one. It's decent.

This one was a mix of the usual hop burn that tears your throat, as per Superflux, with a bit more sweetness in the front, maybe Other Half influence? The hops of course are not particularly distinct, which is too bad because these are nice varieties.

On tap at Superflux, pours an opaque, muddy, milky yellow with a small white head — looks like shit. Aroma is full of hopburn, chalk, and some dankness in there. Flavour is egregious — so much hopburn and chalk, along with a weird chemical spiciness; there's some dankness in there but this is such a poorly constructed beer that the dankness it totally ruined by the egregious chalk, hopburn and chemical spiciness. I can't imagine Other Half would approve the final product — maybe they consulted with Superflux and had little say on the final product because this is shit and way beneath OH's standard.
