Description
In 2014, Sam Richardson, Matt Monahan and Andrew Burman founded Other Half Brewing Company, a local brewery in New York City with a simple mission: to create beers that they wanted to drink from a company that they wanted to be a part of. Their vision was to build a passionate team that brewed great beers in the state of New York—done so with effort and thoughtfulness—to represent the “Other Half” of the industry. Today, Other Half craft beers in their Brooklyn brewery and are dedicated to collaborating with breweries both in New York as well as across the world in an effort to constantly move the industry forward while elevating the craft. The Other Half team believes that local breweries play an important role in their communities which is why they partner with these other likeminded brewers and brands in local nabes across the country and the world—but always return to their home state of New York and their Brooklyn taproom.
PLEASE NOTE: As of 2023, Other Half no longer markets beers as "Double Dry Hopped". Instead, the DDH version is now listed as just the beer name, and the non-DDH version has been retired.

The Sampler, Brooklyn tap: Pours golden with white head. Aroma is light sugar and farmy hay, plus tropical fruit hops. Tastes is of tropical fruits, but in a sort of unconventional way. Hope bitterness is also certainly there. A kind of unique little saison.

On tap at The Ginger Man, NYC. Almost clear in the glass, golden in color and with a creamy, finger thick off-white head leaving lacings on top. The aroma is nice indeed, but almost as far from complex as possible. More or less just grapefruit and some peach. There’s a nice bitterness in the flavor, besides that it’s just the grapefruit and peach known from the flavor, and a wee hint of pepper. It’s smooth and nicely carbonated, semi-dry, and with a lasting fruity finish. Supposedly a farmhouse pale ale, whatever that might be, but to me it’s more like a regular IPA. Sure nice though. 150624
