Style: DIPA
Container: 16oz Can

Another goody sent to us by Anthony at BSU!
Container: 16oz can
Glassware: Snifters
Notes:Broz Broz Night Night is the double dry-hopped version of our 9% Citra DIPA Broz Night Out. This one turned out insane. We love the base beer, but with the DDH treatment, it’s just cray cray.(9%)
Rating: 4.5/5
Another collaboration review! Anthony at Beer Snobs United sent us some beers and thanks to the internet, we reviewed it together!
Check out Beer Snobs United here!!
Style: Pilsner
Container: 16oz can
Glassware: Snifters
Notes:Child Support is our 4.5% Hoppy Pilsner. It is definitely not an IPL, but more of a hop foward Czech style Pilsner. We decided to make Child Support a single hop beer to showcase particular varietals. For this we decided to go with Hallertau Blanc(4.5%)
Nerdsense – 4.75

Welcome to a Nerdsense lesson in beerducation! I’m kidding, we don’t know enough to teach you anything.
This is Other Half & Trillium Triangle Test! We got our hands on the T-90 as well as the combination of T-45, T-90 and Lupilin Powder! We do them side by side and see how hop size can really change a beer.
Style: Double IPA
Container: 16oz Can
Glassware: Trillium The Streets & Stemmed NS BS Snifter
T-90 Notes: It’s hopped 100% with Citra T-90 and receives 2 dry hop additions. T-90 pellets are made by taking whole hops and milling them to powder before reforming them into pellets which retains roughly 90% of the original hop material. (8%)
T-90, T-45 Lupulin Powder Notes – Brewed with Golden Promise malt and 30% flaked oats. This version is hopped in equal parts with all the Citra hop products and is double dry hopped at an even higher rate. (10%)
We’re finally releasing our BCBS review! Life got in the way so it’s a little delayed but with the magic of editing, you get to see Shaun’s, Mike’s AND Josh’s take on this years Goose Island BCBS. Ya, it’s InBev, we’re probably hypocrits but meh.
