We review Ant-Man! 

However, before reviewing Ant-Man we decided to torture ourselves. Mike, Josh and myself do a blind taste of four of those “yellow” beers.

1. Miller Lite WINNER!
2. Pabst Blue Ribbon
3. Budweiser
4. Sapporo

Our old friend, Ray, joined us as sort of an off to the side guest. He poured the beers into numbered cups for us and chimed in occasionally. We hope to have him back as a full featured guest in the near future!

All 3 of us were completely wrong when it came to deciphering which beer was which. We did however unanimously decide that Beer #1 (Miller Lite) was the best.

Above you’ll find the order in which the beers were presented to us and below you’ll find what we thought each one was.

*NOTE* The below order does not signify the order in which we would rate these beers. We already tortured our pallets enough and decided to stop the rating at the best overall

Mike & Josh:

1. Sapporo
2. Budweiser
3. Miller Lite
4. Pabst Blue Ribbon

Shaun:

1. Pabst Blue Ribbon
2. Miller Lite
3. Sapporo
4. Budweiser

Beers (Good Ones)

Night Shift Absolution
Container: 64oz Growler
Glassware: 2014 and 2015 Night Shift Barrel Society Glasses
Overall Nerdsense Rating: 3.5\5
Notes: Definite hazelnut coffee comes up on the aftertaste.  It got a lot smoother as it warmed up in the glass. At first the three of us weren’t blown away by it but as it warmed, we all agreed it got better.

Yeah… This is a continuous tangent. We started talking about beer… Tried talking about movies… And it was all beer. We culminated with a no holds barred face-off between Sip Of Sunshine and Heady Topper. Listen in to see who won. Mike’s brother, Josh, joins the Nerdsense crew once again in this battle royale of IPA madness.

This week we’re joined by Josh!

We go on another tirade about the awesomeness of the Christmas Tree Shop but not as long as last time.

The big topic of this episode is the Nerdsense Top 10 Comic Book Movies!

We saw a list a week or so ago on Screencrush that was WRONG. Yes, I said it, the list is WRONG and that is not our opinion but us speaking the truth.

Below is the link to the Screen Crush list so you can see for yourself.

There is ALOT going on in this episode. I know Mike and I promised a BIG BIG episode 30 to make up for our lackluster episode 25 and I think we kind of did it!

Two of the beers we drank were EXTREMELY great and hard to get so it worked for what we wanted. EPICNESS. We also spent a good 30 minutes talking about the Christmas Tree Shop. We knew wanted something different with Episode 30 and Christmas Tree Shop talks is VERY different.

We still discuss some nerdy topics though! These topics include:

• Batman spotted on the Suicide Squad set!
• Stephen Amell wrestling on the WWE as Arrow!?
• Deadpool Wraps!
• Superhero Beatdown – Green Ranger Vs Ryu

As usual, complete nerdy nonsense!

We’re back after a couple of week hiatus. Mike and I were both traveling but we’ve had some time to let Age of Ultron digest and we’re ready to tell you all our nerdy little thoughts. Mikes brother from the same mother, Josh, joins us for the third in the Nerd Den!

Mike and I also bottled the Oatmeal Stout we brewed during our last episode. I’m afraid it didn’t ferment enough or at all… We’ll see how it comes out in a week or two.

Another brew day for Shaun and Mike which brings us another disjointed podcast!

We brew a Nerdsense Oatmeal Stout this week and record a podcast at the same time!! Oh the humanity! No set topics other than Batman himself being spotted on the Suicide Squad set!

Everything is off the cuff and it’s hot…well not really, we really just talk about Star Trek, Battlestar and boxing but we do it from a couch so that’s kinda hot, right?
