Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #53 Revolution Very Mad Cow

We’ve got Reid back with us this week to review another one of the beers I brought back from my Chicago trip a few weeks back.

Style: Barrel Aged Milk Stout
Container: 22oz Bomber
Glassware: Flutes
Notes: (From Website) The sweetness of the base beer lends balance to the otherwise prominent barrel character, mellowing the harsh. A marriage of all things dark, sweet and woody. (9.7%)
Rating: 4.75/5

Nerdsense Episode 82 – Reads the News Part 2!

  • New Suicide Squad trailer
  • Justice League Sizzle Reel!!
  • Teasers for the upcoming seasons of Arrow, Flash, and Legends of Tomorrow
  • The Killing Joke animated film was finally released – We give our review!

Congrats to Joas! He won our very first Nerdsense contest! We’ll be DM’ing you with your code!

Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #52 Night Shift Truman

This is the latest offering in Night Shift’s Presidential DIPA series! Is it relaunch of the series since there was a large gap between their last one and Roosevelt? Would Truman technically be considered #2 in the relaunch? Eh, it’s beer…so we drink it!

 

Style: Double IPA
Container: 16oz Can
Glassware: 2016 Barrel Society Snifters
Notes: (From Website) Loaded with Idaho 7, Simcoe, and El Dorado hops, this 8.0% DIPA has piney, resinous character with a dank, orange pith finish.(8%)
Rating: 4.5/5

Nerdsense Episode 81

We live streamed this episode! Thanks to everyone who watched live! Don’t forget that this episode has instructions on how to get a 2nd entry into our Batman v Superman Ultimate Edition Digital Code contest!

We’ll post the video after the contest is over as it contains special instructions for live listeners only and I’m to lazy to download it, edit it then re-upload it.

On the latest episode of Nerdsense, the boys are discussing the future of CWDCTVU (Shaun’s acronym). The new seasons of Arrow, Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, and Supergirl are fast approaching and news is getting out.
Also, the Netflix-Marvel properties, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Daredevil, and The Defenders, have some new teasers, so the boys give their take.

Finally, Mike, the pretentious dipshit, gives his public service announcement about driving and using your phone.

It’s all the latest news you want, served to you Nerdsense-style.

Cheers!

Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #49 Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout 2015 13.8%

We got ourselves a bottle of the 13.8% version of the 2015 Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout.

Style: Stout
Container: 16.9oz Bottle
Glassware: 5oz snifter tasters
Notes:A liquid as dark and dense as a black hole with thick foam the color of a bourbon barrel. The nose is an intense mix of charred oak, chocolate, vanilla, caramel and smoke.
Rating: 4.75/5

Nerdsense Episode 80 – No More Titles!

On the latest episode of Nerdsense, we have a brand new special guest: Reid Homer. We talk about anything and everything, including beer, BvS (again) and Kevin Smith. We even touch on some TV news which includes the CW DC Universe as well as Lifetime movies! (We’re not kidding) There’s not a lot of structure, but, rest assured, there are plenty of laughs.

Hope you enjoy! — You may want to stick it out till after the outro music ends…

Also, a little bit of Nerdsense news…

Starting with Episode 80 we will no longer be doing fun titles every week. We may have them here and there for special episodes or specific topics but for now, we’ll stick to episode numbers.

You’d be surprised how much of a pain it is to think of a fun title for each weeks episode.
