Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #132 Treehouse Haze

Treehouse makes it back to the table! This time it’s their DIPA, HAZE!

 

Style: DIPA
Container: 16oz Can
Glassware: Treehouse Teku’s
Notes:We constructed this beer around hops we currently have plenty of access to, allowing us to re-brew it on a (relatively) consistent basis. We smell a ton of orange on the nose, with complimentary notes of peach and passionfruit. The flavor is similar with a blast of citrus fruit & orange quickly followed by spicy grapefruit, and earthy dankness. A lingering but pleasant hop oil finish awaits (8.2%)

Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #130 Night Shift Apple Brandy El Lechedor (2016)

We’ve been putting this one off for awhile for reasons neither of us can explain. We finally took it out of the fridge, hit record and had camera issues! So this is using our old camera, so it may look a little different than our more recent videos.

Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #129 Fieldwork King Citra

Another Fieldwork brew makes it’s way to the table and this time it’s King Citra!

Style: DIPA
Container: 16oz Can
Glassware: Nerdsense Snifters
Notes:A thick and full mouthfeel creates an Orange Whip-like profile that sticks to the palate with a refreshingly dessert-esque fervor, slowly giving way to a soft bite of carbonation. As the sun sets across the horizon King Citra fires thunderbolt after thunderbolt at every taste receptor till they are overwhelmed and he struts away, crown atop his head, still reigning supreme over his Empire of Double IPA.
