Our team really thought we’d see a pause in the hype beer drops: after all, we’re tired from slinging all these cases of cool brews, and there’s no room on the shelves! Welp, were we wrong!
This week, we’ve welcomed six IPAs from Other Half, four of which are brand new to the market. Plus, last week we promised our friends at Tripping Animals would be spoiling us with some new new for our Fizz Ed events, and boy did they deliver! All the while, we’ve still got hidden gems from the dozens and dozens of new products that arrived in the last month.
Our job is to help guide you through this vast selection, and we take that job seriously! Read all about this week’s highlights and choose your own adventure! We’ve got staff recs to help you decide what to imbibe, and staff-curated mixed packs so you can try one of all the things! (Pro tip: Remember, when you shop in-store, you can always break off singles and build your own custom mixed pack!)
If you’re anything like us, you’ve probably pressed your beer budget to the limit over the last few weeks. With that in mind, we put together a pre-built pack with a single of all the new Other Half so you can try ‘em all without breaking the bank. Each pack contains one can each of:
Green City - Other Half’s flagship IPA hopped w/ Citra, Centennial & Simcoe, 7%

Rabe - IPA w/ Citra, Cashmere & Simcoe, 5.5%

Bask in the Sun with Seasonal Sours!
Our pals at Tripping Animals really brought the Miami feels, and our hearts are filled with sunshine! In keeping with that vibe, our team has been crushing a couple other seasonal sippers and would love to tell you all about them!
We’re all feeling those Florida vibes, and how fitting that one of everyone’s favorite fruit-packed sours is back in season! This super-fruited sour is loaded with dragonfruit, passionfruit, mango, pineapple, pink guava, key lime, tangerine, toasted coconut, marshmallows, and milk sugar. Dive in and get weird!
“First of all, YUMMMMM,” says Lead retail associate David McCann. “It’s a gose base, so it’s tart, and juicy blood orange, apricot, and strawberry come through without getting too sweet. Definitely a repeat buy and I would have more than 1 a session!” High praise from someone who gets to try all the best beverages out there–take David’s advice and pick up a pack today!
