Got to try some fresh cans of Trillium hazy ipas just now. Galaxy Fort Point and DDH Stillings Street. Incredibly mediocre! Hop burn aplenty in both examples. There is a lot of hop aroma but it smells more "hoppy" than anything; I had hoped for something a lot brighter. The finish was reasonably dry thankfully, but I don't think I can roll with all that implied sweetness and body. Not much difference between the beers, and certainly not a world's away from a random hazy at your local brewpub.

Hop burn is a problem and any brewery that puts out cans and says to sit on them for a few weeks is lazy and just wants to turn tanks.

OG Fort Point was my platonic ideal of an american pale ale back in the day.

Trillium sucks/just hype. I had a few of their beers on tap last year at the Big E and none of them were particularly good or memorable. Their space was also relatively close to the Sam Adams tent with fresh Octoberfest so

If anyone is interested in a Modern Times League membership, please let me know. I have (1) I can gift until end of day Saturday so you are guaranteed to get in. Opens up to the League after that, and sounds like they'll go pretty quick. EDIT: All Claimed. That went quick. Zam fucked around with this message at 00:32 on Oct 30, 2020 |

it's the (Munich) dunkel we made almost two years ago that the owner rebranded for some reason. the base is supposed to be all Barke Munich (a different variety of barley than their other malts), but our supplier didn't have enough, so it's 75% Barke and 25% regular Munich. um, since you wanted to know more. really happy with it; malty bread and caramel flavors up front and a dry, noble hop finish.

Is the Barke more like a Type I or Type II? I use a lot of Munich II in my beers and might have to give them a try.

I visited the brewpub a while back and Gumballhead and Zombie Dust were great. I also got a lactose IPA (apocalypse moo or something?) which was decent and surprisingly prescient in hindsight.

Wild fermented sours are so much better than kettle sours imho. It is SO fricken dry. That took me by surprise

Revelatory beer at the time, but I also haven't had it in years at this point... You know what is wild? Coolship Red dropped in Chicago the first week of October and is STILL easily found. COOLSHIP loving RED. We've been drinking like one a week because why not? Maybe caring about Coolship Red make me an old man in the beer world and instead I should be posting about hazies and pastry stouts?
