{"title":"Other Half Brewing Co.","description":"\u003cp\u003eOther Half Brewing Co. is an independent brewery from Brooklyn, New York, founded in 2014 by Sam Richardson, Matt Monahan and Andrew Burman. The company is known for bold, dank and fruity IPAs full of hops. At Hoptimaal you'll mostly find their IPAs, complemented by a few stouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--verhaal--\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrom a garage under the Gowanus Expressway\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2014, Sam Richardson, Matt Monahan and Andrew Burman founded Other Half Brewing Company in New York City. Their starting point was simple: make beer they wanted to drink themselves, at a company they wanted to be part of themselves. Richardson grew up in Portland, Oregon, and learned to brew through the Fermentation Science program at Oregon State University. After his studies he moved to Brooklyn and worked at Greenpoint Beerworks. There he met Monahan, who put him in touch with Burman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first location was in an industrial garage under the Gowanus Expressway in the Carroll Gardens neighbourhood. Real estate was expensive, so the founders chose the cheapest option they could find, via Craigslist. When Other Half opened its doors in 2014, it had been nine years since a brewery had started in Brooklyn. According to Richardson, only Brooklyn Brewery, Sixpoint and Greenpoint Beer \u0026amp; Ale Co. came before them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brewery grew after that. In 2019 a second location opened in East Bloomfield, New York. Later came sites in Domino Park in Brooklyn, in Washington, D.C. and, in October 2021, in Philadelphia. Other Half is still an independent craft brewer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA brewery built around hops\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRichardson wanted to give New Yorkers access to hefty IPAs, like the ones he had seen on the West Coast. All Green Everything, a triple IPA, was the first attempt. Drinkers were drawn in by the high alcohol content and the juicy, hoppy flavour. Many New Yorkers had never had anything like it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2016, two years after the founding, 85 percent of what Other Half brewed was IPA. The range has since become broader, but the brewery is still mainly known for this style. Demand was so high that beers sold out quickly and the brewers had to scale up and streamline production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther Half also collaborates a lot with other breweries, both in New York and worldwide. That has been part of how they work since the start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOther Half Brewing Co. at Hoptimaal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe've had thirteen beers from Other Half: eleven IPAs and two stouts. The strength ranges from 6.5 to 12 percent. Most come in 47.3 cl, and there has been one in 50 cl and one in 33 cl. Highly rated on Untappd are, among others, Other Half Double Citra Daydream, Other Half Double Mosaic Dream, Other Half BA Double Sunset - Cloud Cover Layo Teraga, Other Half All Dank Everything (5th Anniversary), Other Half Chicken Riggies and Other Half Chicken \u0026amp; Broccoli.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrink their IPAs as fresh as possible and well chilled. Hop is the first thing to fade, and that is exactly the point of the beer here. With heavier beers, such as stouts and barrel aged versions, it pays to drink them more slowly. Take them out of the fridge a while before pouring, and the aromas come through better. You can see exactly what is in stock in the webshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--faq--\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere does Other Half Brewing Co. come from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther Half comes from Brooklyn, New York. The brewery started in 2014 in a garage under the Gowanus Expressway in Carroll Gardens. There are now also locations in East Bloomfield (NY), Washington, D.C. and Philadelphia, among others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat kind of beer does Other Half Brewing Co. make?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMainly hoppy, fruity IPAs, which is what made them known. In 2016, 85 percent of their production was IPA, and they started with the triple IPA All Green Everything. At Hoptimaal you'll find stouts from them as well as IPAs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do you best drink Other Half?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrink their IPAs fresh and cool, so the hops come into their own. Heavier beers such as stouts and barrel aged versions you drink more slowly, and they can be a little less cold.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"other-half-triple-drupe-2024","title":"Other Half Triple Drupe (2024)","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eCacao nibs, coconut and pecans meet bourbon barrel ageing in Triple Drupe, an Imperial Stout from Other Half.
