Nerdsene Episode 75 – Podcast 101

Mike and I actually weren’t going to record a podcast this past Friday. We instead decided to use the time to restructure how we have our video and podcast table setup.

If you’re curious about podcasting and how to get started then listen in! If you’re just curious how we’ve evolved and what equipment we currently use then this is the podcast for you!

Equipment

Blue Encore 100 (x4)

Behringer Xenyx X1204 USB Mixer

3 x Pop Filter

3 x NEEWER Mic Boom

Beer

Night Shift The 87 DIPA

Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #40 Night Shift Morph Batch 06/03/2016

This is a first! Morph rolled off the canning line the same day we recorded our review! Couldn’t get any fresher unless Night Shift let us drink it from the spout! *hint hint*

 

Style: IPA
Container: 16oz Can
Glassware: 2016 Night Shift Barrel Society snifters
Notes:Balancing the best qualities of Cascade, Simcoe, and Columbus hops; dank aromas of pine and orange peel, and sips with notes of melon and lime (6.5%)(Night Shift tasting notes)
Rating: 4.25/5

Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #39 Mystic & Redstone Liquors Last and Final Judgement

We’ve got a collaboration between an awesome local brewery and an awesome local craft beer store! This is a barrel aged version of Mystics Day of Doom!!

Style: Belgian Quad
Container: 25oz Bottle
Glassware: Teku glasses
Notes: Boasts flavors of raisin, plum & dates and marries them with vanilla, and toasted coconut on the finish. The lighter carbonation of this release makes for a silky body with a creamy mouthfeel that is great on its own but will pair wonderfully with your favorite dessert.(From Redstones website)

Nerdsense Episode 74 – The Prodcast: Screwing Yourself Out Of Existence

Well, today we have a VERY special guest: the oft mentioned Spencer B. Paul.

Our only goal was to review the season finales of Arrow and Flash, and honestly, who the fuck knows if we ever really finished. This was one long tangent, and hopefully it’s as fun to listen to as it was to record. Cheers!

Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #38 Parkway Brewing Majestic Mullet

Beer mail from our good friend Larry! A super refreshing and enjoyable Kolsch!

Style: Kolsch
Container: 12oz Bottle
Glassware: 8oz taster glasses
Notes:Majestic Mullet Krispy Kolsch is a golden colored ale with notes of cereal & grain. Balanced by hints of floral hop aroma & an accentuating bitterness, the nuances of the yeast add a fruity, vinous note. (From website)
