Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #408 Tree House King Julius
Style: Double IPA
Container: 16oz can
Glassware: Teku’s
Notes: King Julius is an American Double IPA brewed to be an exceptionally flavorful, juicy, and hop saturated beer without rough edges or abrasiveness. Its vivid citrus aromas give way to flavors of orange creamsicle, mango smoothie, and a bounty of fresh tropical fruit. We find it to be refined and delicate amid an onslaught of flavor. Originally brewed in 2012, King Julius is our endeavor to marry our past with what we aspire to be in the future. (8.2%)
Nerdsense Drinks Reviews #406-407 Trillium The Streets (2019)
This year we decided to review this beer solo given the other beers we wanted to review. It just made sense logistically do this separately during the week since we both had cans of it. Two doses of Nerdsense to go with your Saturday morning cartoons!
Style: Triple IPA
Container: 16oz Can
Glassware: The Streets
Notes: The culmination of all our Street beers over the past 6 years, The Streets is a Triple IPA brewed to celebrate our anniversary. Using the same base recipe and bumping the ABV up to 10.6%, we dry hopped with Amarillo, Mosaic, Galaxy, El Dorado, Simcoe, Nelson, Vic Secret, & Enigma. Additionally, as a nod to the neighborhood, we also added Citra to the dry hop this year, the signature hop used for our Fort Point Pale Ale

Notes: Pouring an eye catching golden yellow with a heavy milky haze, Ballmer Peak has an explosively aromatic nose revealing mouthwatering tones of mango nectar, pineapple slices, and vibrant orange peel. Ripe stone fruit flavors of apricot and peach build on the palate adding to a melange of tropical papaya, lime, melon and lychee.
