Other Half in Philadelphia Opening This Friday

Grand Opening This Friday

This Friday is the grand opening of Other Half Brewing Company’s Philadelphia location. Located at the previously used brewery of Goose Island.

Just an hour ago, Other Half posted on their Instagram the above picture with the below quote:

Alright, Philly, let’s do this! We’re beyond thrilled to finally open our doors this weekend, starting this Friday at 3pm. We’ll be slinging your favorite OH brews with tasty bites from the kitchen ‘til 10 pm. We will have 20 lines of OHB beers, and plenty of cans and bottles to go. ⁠
⁠
We’re ramping up to being fully operational as fast as we can. This weekend we’ll be open Friday 3-10, Saturday 12-9, and Sunday 12-8. We will be closed Monday and Tuesday next week and reopened Wednesday-Sunday hours to be announced next week. ⁠

So set your calendar and set your Google Maps for 3PM Friday – February 18th, 2022 for 1002 Canal St, Philadelphia PA 19123.

July Announcement

The announcement of their opening is very welcome news. They had been rumored to be moving into Philly for a while, and had made the announcement of their moving into the Goose Island Brewery back in July 2021. With the initial hope of a late Winter 2021/early winter 2022 opening.

You can read some articles from when their announcement was made in July 2021:

• Philadelphia Voice: Brooklyn-based Other Half Brewing to take over former Goose Island location in Fishtown
• Visit Philly: New & Coming-Soon Craft Breweries in Greater Philadelphia

At the time of their announcement, the COO and co-founder of Other Half – Andrew Burman was quoted talking about Philadelphia:

Philadelphia has a long & robust brewing history and when the opportunity presented itself to open an Other Half location here – in between our DC and NYC breweries – we couldn’t pass it up. The bones of the space are great and over the coming months, we’ll refresh the indoor and outdoor areas and work on sourcing food partners.  

Our team is really excited to join the city’s dynamic brewery and restaurant communities and we look forward to opening Other Half Philly’s doors and sharing some of our signature IPAs and other site-specific brews later this year.

We are hoping to get there Friday for their grand opening (if not Friday, maybe Saturday). So if you are there, be on the lookout for us. Despite the loss, I might be rocking my Bengals hoodie still, or my Boneshire Brew Works hoodie.
