As of this writing, Other Half Brewing is probably my favorite in the USA. I've thankfully been a few of their locations so on a recent visit I made an effort to visit two more. This one is on Domino Park, right across the street from green areas and beautiful views of Manhattan. It's a large open space with a few tables around, mostly for groups of four or more. The bar area is inside, with restrooms to the left. There's also a doorman to check IDs and probably security. The large windows give a ton of natural light, but they also have their stylish lighting and decor. A lot of bare concrete but with nice touches around. The beer selection is always amazing, with fresh beers from their NYC and other locations plus fun collaborations. They have some canned selections for the NA crowd. Prices are reasonable for the quality. They do flights, which is the most fun way to try more. They offer their own beers to go in cans, 4-packs or mix and match. If you're a beer fan visiting New York and find yourself nearby, this is worth a stop. read more

This brewery has a great location right off the water in Domino Park. They have a huge walk up bar where you will be served by multiple bartenders. We started a tab and hung out for an hour or two. We ordered a pizza from next door as they allow you to bring in outside food. They have a convenient self service water station. I had the Green City IPA and the Trillium Fort Point. Both were good. I wish this place was closer to home for me because I would be a regular! read more

I'm not a big fan of IPAs but their session IPA (forever ever) was actually quite nice! It was lighter and not as bitter. One of their more popular beers. I wish they had more variety here though. They offered one sour, one pilsner, one cider, then IPA for everything else. The service was nice and they helped me find the right fit for me based on my personal preference. They give you tasters. The inside is spacious and seems to be packed on weekends. They have a little bar stool area at the entrance which is clever. They also offer cocktails and those could be their highlight for me. The big apple and frozen pumpkin spice White Russian stood out the most! The music is super loud so everyone has to talk really loud which makes it lively but also hard to hold conversations with my friends here. They offer bathrooms for customers and provide a water tap that's self serve. read more

Other Half Brewing - Domino Park - Forever ever and guest sour - Breweries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Great location of a popular brewery. It was a treat to visit this location when I was visiting. I was treated to the same chill vibe you can always expect from other half, with tons of cute doggies. They had their standard menu of beers along with canned cocktails and special cocktails for the non beer drinkers. It wasn't huge inside but the overflow of guests could find more seating outside. Great view of the river and some interesting people watching at domino park rounded out the afternoon. read more

This is the original location of one of my favorite hazy breweries. We have tried them in dc and philly but this one is the best for beer in my opinion. They have a tone of great unique hazies that are different rough to stand out amongst each other. I like mine of the fruits and complex side and they definitly had both. The first time we ever went here it wasn't too busy but over the last few years it has gotten packed. Its a big place but it fills up just as quickly. A new part they added was the slider option which even has a good vegan option. Overall some great hazy beers if that's what your into. read more

We had such a nice time at Other Half Brewing, the 2nd time that we visited this year. Just an overall great selection of cans, bottles & taps plus some cocktails. I had this exceptional Frozen concoction similar to a boozy white russian. It hit the spot. Staff is delightful. They could use a lot more seating, I do not know if it is a zone thing or what. Maybe some long long high tables running down the center. Once seated, it is a fabulous time. Dogs welcome, there was even a water bowl on the floor. You can order food from Roberta's next door (and possibly elsewhere, we were headed to dinner so only had drinks) Will return again soon for sure. read more

great beer, good views and free wifi but don't go here expecting friendly service from the bartender

Preferred pre-game spot when we have later reservations at Laser Wolf! Both times we visited the place was hopping and finding seating is best left to Lisa E, who just has that natural knack for seeing an opening. The group that was leaving and offering the table, offered us the remaining half. bottle of a special Wakefield collab 10 month barrel aged stout that poured like oil and tasted sublime. I followed with a draft pour of their limited 2 year that was even better. Lisa E had some fancy frozen cocktail that she thorougly enjoyed. Not often near Domino PArk, but when we are we certainly will make another return visit. read more

I'm so glad I tried this taproom! The space is large but it was very busy when we visited. Our group of 5 managed to get a table after about 15-20 minutes of waiting. The place had lots of dogs and a few strollers as well, although it was very loud inside so may not be for all dogs/children. The location is great as well. There are large tall windows so on a nice day, it's a great place to relax. We loved the huge variety of beers they had. I hope to visit again! read more

Ok if you are a beer connoisseur you need to check this place out. The menu is extensive and the options go on and on. Great space inside and out. The outdoor area has fantastic views of Domino Park. The vibe is super relaxed and seems to attract a range of patrons. The bartender was very helpful and friendly. I enjoyed some type of blueberry beer that is pretty out of the norm for me and it it was absolutely delicious! read more

Gorgeous taproom for one of NYC's best breweries. Located across the street from Domino Park which offers wonderful views along the East River. The tap room has a large indoor space plus a cozy outdoor dining shed. Came on a beautiful weekday and the taproom was busy. We sat outside in the outdoor shed which was pretty full but not packed. Lots of options from Other Half which is known for the IPAs and some of the bolder ales like stouts. Nearly twenty options on tap plus a few guest taps offering craft and sessionable beers from the region. Service was quick and accommodating. There was a communal, gender neutral restroom with four single occupancy stalls and exterior sinks. One was handicap accessible. Definitely a great option in the area and super convenient for tourists who can't make it over to Carroll Gardens for the Brewery. read more

Super unique array of beers and tastes. Scenic views and great playlist. Have also visited the DC location in Ivy City and would return.

Great vibes along the waterfront to celebrate my half with all my favorite people -- super bright and airy, tables can get filled up but patio would slap in the summer. The Lime Snaps Lager was super citrusy and solid, big fan. read more

Great drinks (draft and cocktails) Awesome vibes Amazing place to hang out with friends read more

Had a great stop in while on a trip to NYC. We had a long day of walking around and stopped in for a couple of beers. They had lots of creative beers on tap and we tried a couple of their flagships. They have a wide variety, would have loved to be able to try some of the deeper cuts, maybe on our next visit. Great space and was packed, would have been nice to have a couple more tables available. read more

The Madcap Monuments IPA is delicious. Soccer (football) on TV. Without a doubt the loudest beer brewery I've ever been in. On a happy note, they have an excellent selection of Weller bourbon. read more

Other Half Brewing is a great modern brewery with tasty beers. It's pet-friendly, so you can bring your dog along. Bartenders provided great service and advice on what to drink depending on your beer preferences. The atmosphere is pleasant, making it a nice place to relax and enjoy a drink especially since it's right in front of the East River and next to the Williamsburg Bridge. My gf and I got to see a gorgeous sunset behind the NY skyline. An unforgettable time. read more

This weekend was my second time going to Other Half - it was around mid-afternoon on Sunday, and it was packed with people! Quite a variety between families, dates, and groups of friends. Because it was so busy, lines moved at about an average pace. The beer was quite good, though I will say I preferred the sour I had gotten in my previous visit versus this one. That said, I'd still return to try whatever is on draft in a few months. If you're looking for food, it seems like you can order from Robertas to enjoy at OH. read more

Catch them Brooklyn hipster vibes at this sweet water front brewery. Other Half's satellite serves up their much celebrated juicy IPA's and does balance it out some with a lager and stout here and there. Unfortunately, OH has ventured into the smoothie sour style (tell me how you really feel? Naw). Fancy a cocktail? They've got that too. 4oz tasters were very pricy at $4. They really incentivize you to go for that full pour at $7-$8 and/ or opt into their taster flight, a whopping 8x4oz pours for $30. I imagine it is super easy to get smashed off of this. The bouncer checking your ID as you come inside is a slight indication of this possibility. Loved the variety of seating available to you here. I highly suggest posting up at the tables outside. It's not quite on the water but you're still guaranteed to experience some sunset glow, maybe even spy a crazy New Yorker or two. OH was much loved during the craft beer boom, therefore I am glad to have finally made a venture out. If you love IPA's, you'll be in heaven and if you don't, there are other options but still at a minimum. read more

Besides excellent beer this is their diamond location. Must go here for the view and drinks. Sit outside

Walking through Domino Park and stubled across this busy brewery. Lots of indoor tables and outdoor patio seating. This place is great for larger groups and they have a huge menu. Feel free to open a tab here and enjoy the music and vibes. Theres restrooms for customers only. At every table theres also a QR code to order pizzas brought directly to you from a affiliated restaurant. read more

First time hitting up OH domino park. I've previously been to the centre st and DC locations. This tap room was just as great as the others and a pretty spacious setup. What else can I say, the brews were fantastic - I already have OH in my top 3 favorite breweries so take that however you want. Visited for their 9th anniversary and literally everything was fire. I also picked up an online order while I was here and the process was smooth and easy. Service here was excellent and the crew behind the bar was helpful and friendly. My guy even hooked me up with a dope glass that has the OH daydream clouds & Nyc skyline. Thank you all for a great time! read more

Other Half Brewing Company is a craft brewery that opened in Brooklyn, New York in 2014. It was founded by business partners Matt Monahan, Andrew Burman and head brewer Sam Richardson. Richardson grew up in Portland, Oregon and got his start brewing through Oregon State University's Fermentation Science Program. After finishing school, he moved to Brooklyn and began working at Greenpoint Beer & Ale Co.. Here he met Monahan and Burman who were both originally from the Washington D.C. area. They had a dream to open their own brewery with a simple mission: to create beers that they wanted to drink from a company that they wanted to be a part of. The brewery's name is a reference to the fact that they wanted to represent the "Other Half" of the beer industry. Through a Craigslist ad, the partners found an industrial garage located under the Gowanus Expressway in Brooklyn's Carroll Gardens neighborhood. At the time, that area wasn't so desirable. The land sits next to the Gowanus Canal which is NYC's most polluted body of water. In spite of the odds against them, Other Half's reputation and popularity grew at a very fast rate. In addition to their original location in Carroll Gardens, Other Half now has locations in Brooklyn's Domino Park, Manhattan's Rockefeller Center, Finger Lakes (Bloomfield, New York), Buffalo, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. Several new breweries have also popped up in Brooklyn since Other Half opened; the borough has turned into a brewer's paradise. Prior to Other Half opening, Brooklyn only had three breweries. I visited Other Half's Domino Park location (which opened in March 2021) this past summer while I was cycling around NYC. I was trying out a number of Brooklyn breweries and pizzerias and this was my fourth stop of the day. I had previously visited their flagship and Rockefeller Center locations (and loved them). This location featured a gorgeous view of the park and the East River. Like Other Half's other taprooms, this one had no shortage of my favorite kind of beer: hazy, hoppy, unfiltered IPAs! I ordered short pours of "Citra Daydream" (IPA), "Citra Today, Tomorrow, Forever" (Double IPA), "Canal Street" (Double New England IPA), and "Triple Dry Hopped Triple Cream" (Triple New England IPA). The latter was my favorite! If you happen to visit Domino Park, be sure to grab some phenomenal craft brews at Other Half! read more

Very affordable and delicious beers + impeccably chill outdoor vibes = the perfect after week chill spot. Located along the water in Long Island City, Other Half Brewing is such a cool place. I was just here for the first time and ordered me a glass of Logical Progression, which is an in-house brew. I've never heard of this beer before but I love me some stouts.. and it might just be the best stout I've ever had! According to their website, it is an "American Imperial Stout." As I sipped it, I tasted hints of chocolate and cherry. It reminded me almost of a port wine, which I've also been known to enjoy from time to time. Thank you Other Half Brewing for creating such an inviting, warm, and laid back space in such a busy, non-stop city! read more

Not much more needs to be said about Other Half Brewery - one of the most well known craft brewers in Brooklyn. Definitely IPA heavy (as most modern day breweries), but with all types of beers to satisfy any taste. I will always have a soft spot at their original location/small space in Carrol Gardens/Red Hook, but this place in Domino Park is a completely different vibe. The new spot is right along the water with both indoor and outdoor seating. As others have pointed out, this place can get super busy during peak times, so be prepared. No food, but you can eat food from the outside. FYI: the adjacent Roberta's allows take out and delivery on weekdays, but do NOT allow it on weekends. A couple months ago on a beautiful evening, I was sitting outside with friends - sun setting, sky was on fire, gentle breeze, enjoying a beer with Roberta's pizza. High on life, the golden hour hitting just right, slight buzz from that Mosaic Dream....for a moment, all was right in the world. This has to be bookmarked for all beer lovers, or if you're hosting out-of-towners who want to experience the brewery scene in the city. read more

TLDR - 5 star because of the service. I believe I had a bad can of Kombucha. I complained to the staff who said it should taste like that, but the manager realized something was amiss and came over to get me a new can (with a different taste). I drink a lot of Kombucha but I didn't want to be rude, and totally appreciated this amazing service - Music isn't too loud, lots of indoor and outdoor seating place and the place was well ventilated (I've been to some breweries where it isn't) - Good selection of low ABV and high ABV beers and I appreciated that they had some non-alcoholic options - Only complaint was it wasn't clear how to connect to the WiFi but am not going to ding them for this read more

Nice and chill spot to grab a drink with a great selection of beers. I like IPAs so I like the beer selection they offer - they had a triple IPA (Juiced). They also have cocktails available if you don't want a beer. There's outdoor seating as well as plenty of indoor seating. The staff cleared tables and glasses fairly quickly and regularly. However, I felt like they could have turned on the AC a bit, it was quite warm over the weekend. Also the bathroom could have been cleaned more regularly. There are 4 unisex stalls but 3 stalls were out of toilet paper. read more

Super cool spot featuring open space and lots of seating inside and outside. It's across from Domino Park so it's a nice walk outside, or if you just want to people watch, can do that too. Kid/family friendly brewing with good beer; I'd totally visit again next time I'm in town. read more

Beautiful space in a beautiful location - Other Half's brewery in Williamsburg is definitely worth a visit, especially when the weather is nice. They did a great job with the interior, it's spacious and gives off a modern vibe. Plus being next to the water doesn't hurt! Outdoor seating is great during the warmer months. I'm a fan of some Other Half beers. If you like juicy IPAs, you'll have a great time. There's a smattering of other styles too - a stout, a Pilsner, a cider - but the IPAs seem to be in the spotlight here. Be warned - as a few other folks noted, this place gets BUSY. Waits can stretch out on the weekends. Also, this location has beer and cider only - no food, no wine or spirits. It is a brewery after all, but the lack of food (even snacks) was a bit of a downer. There are great options nearby, and you're allowed to bring outside food into the brewery, for what it's worth. read more

Fantastic brewing spot to check out! If you are stopping by the Domino Park area, this is a must place to check out for drinks! I love the lively vibe of this place where you get to relax and enjoy the summer as you sip away on your beer. You can order drinks at the counter and they bring them to you. You can sit yourself at the variety of seating options they have from regular tables to high tops and from indoor to outdoor seatings. I also like that it's not super crowded and how the employees move quickly in clearing out seats for the next group once the party beforehand leaves. The drinks are just amazing. They are all nice and crisp and the vibe is just perfect for group gatherings or dates! Will definitely be coming back here soon! read more

Good for Other Half for grabbing this ideal location next to robertas, odd fellows, and the waterside. Came here on a Friday afternoon. The wait to get a table was 30 min so we just got to-go drinks. They did a great job with the design inside. The beers aren't half bad either. We tried the Cider - this was crisp and hoppy. My partner had a saison and quite enjoyed it too. Nice to have a solid spot to pick up beers next to the water, they will definitely be busy this summer! read more

Lovely beer selection, may are ipas but they're really flavorful beers. They do also have cocktail and wine options for those who aren't interested in beer. No food sold here but they are located next to a pizza shop called robertas that you can walk to in order to get a pizza or sandwich. You order at the bar and beers are given to you at thebar no table service. It's a nice place with a young clientele and nice music located right by the water. Definitely worth a try!! read more

uhmmm. there's TOO many drafts and can selections going on. This for a bar would've been a good idea, but for Other Half....it just took away from their classic and most popular offerings. I ordered the stout, i actually felt like they were trying to hard to accommodate every taste palate. It was just thick and not very good. If you're good at IPA, stick to IPA! The space was super comfortable, high ceilings, socially distanced, with some outdoor seating. 2 of these 3 stars are actually for the environment . OH, CHECK OUR ROBERTAS PIZZA NEXT DOOR! read more
