Trillium Pipsqueak Penguin
Pale Ale - 4.9% ABV Pete Had this at the brewery. It was my 6th beer of the day there, and a bunch of those were big stouts, so the alcohol percentage was good for me. It's citrusy, not a ton of flavor, but what's there is very good. Definitely recommend having this without food to avoid overwhelming it. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Pittsburgh Street
IPA - 7.2% ABV Pete Incredible IPA. Creamy and citrusy with a not-so-subtle peppery-ness that I really enjoyed. Stood out at a beer fest with quite a few great offerings. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Plum Super Soak
Sour - 7.1% ABV Pete Incredible sour. Super tart and the plum is definitely noticeable in the finish with maybe a hint of saltiness. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium PM Dawn
Imperial Stout - 9% ABV Pete Delicious. Chocolatey mostly with some subtly spicy coffee flavor. It's super sweet, and maybe a tiny more bitterness would make it perfect. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium PM Dawn - Peanut Butter
Imperial Milk Stout - 10.1% ABV Pete A bit too sweet for me, but it hides the booze well and definitely tastes like peanut butter. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium PM Dawn - The Natural: Single Origin Series
Imperial Stout - 9% ABV Pete Just an unreal coffee stout. Perfectly executed. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium PM Dawn - Vanilla
Imperial Milk Stout - 9% ABV Pete Tons of vanilla and chocolate, and isn't too sweet, which many milk stouts can be. Really hard to find anything wrong with this baby. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Pom Pom
Milk Stout - 6.8% ABV Pete Pretty sweet going down, but it's balanced in the finish by dark chocolate and some subtle fruit flavors. Damn good well-rounded stout. Perfect for those who don't love coffee flavors in their stouts. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Pot & Kettle
Porter - 7.5% ABV Pete Oatmeal porter with coffee sounds great to me, and this lived up to what I was hoping for. A ton of coffee flavor and a little peppery, awesome. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Pot & Kettle w/Chocolate
Porter - 7.5% ABV Pete Some good chocolate flavor, and even more vanilla. Wasn't described as a vanilla porter, but that's what it is really. I'm not complaining. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Raspberry Chocolate Gateau
Pastry Stout - 11% ABV Pete This beer is chocolate mousse with raspberry sauce in liquid form. It's not crazy sweet either, as it has some tartness from the raspberry. Glorious. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Resolution Break 2019
Imperial Stout - 13% ABV Pete As always with Trillium stouts, this one is pretty expensive ($23 for a 25oz bottle). Coffee, caramel/molasses, and chocolate rotate flavors for me drinking this, with a tiny bit of vanilla. It's sweet, but not crazy. Drinking a full glass is doable. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Scaled
IPA - 7% ABV Pete Super juicy with no bitterness and maybe a touch of creaminess. It's delicious, as I expected at this point (this was my 43rd offering from Trillium - 9/26/18). Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Scaled Up
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete Super juicy overripe fruit and a lot of creaminess going down, yet finishes fairly dry. So good. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Secret Stairs
Stout - 6.5% ABV Pete This is incredible. You get flavors of caramel and chocolate, as well as a hint of smokiness. It isn't too heavy, and drinks incredibly smooth. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Sleeper Street
New England IPA - 7.2% ABV Pete Pretty earthy. I didn't like this at first, but it grew on me as it warmed up a little bit. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Soak Seltzer: Mango
Hard Seltzer - 4% ABV Pete Pictured on the right - this tastes like carbonated mango juice. Unlike many seltzers, it's not gluten free, but it's extremely flavorful and extremely crushable. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium South Pacific Soufflé
Imperial Stout - 12.1% ABV Pete Collaboration with Garage Project (haven't had any of their beers as of 8/16/19). Smell is big time vanilla and boozy. Flavor starts a little sweet with a tiny hint of coffee. The finish is intense bitter dark chocolate and the booze stays with you. This baby comes in 25.4oz bottles. Definitely find at least 2 friends to split it with. It's delicious, but the intensity makes it tough to get through much volume of this. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Raucous Raccoon
West Coast IPA - 7% ABV Pete Very light body and a nice floral flavor, with a good amount of bitterness at the end. Great take on the west coast style. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Spectacle Island
IPA - 6.8% ABV Pete Looks like juice. Doesn't smell like much, but the taste more than makes up for it. Extra ripe tropical fruit with no noticeable bitterness, and finishes a touch creamy. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Speed Mettle
Imperial New England IPA - 8% ABV Pete Nice combination of zesty/peppery and sweet melon flavors going down, with a distinctly dry finish. Excellent. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Stillings Street
IPA - 7.2% ABV Pete This is a "juicy IPA", whatever that means. It's fruity and glorious. Not bitter at all. PG note - I don't know when I first had this, but it was apparently my first "juicy IPA", the best kind of IPA. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Storrowed
Imperial IPA - 8.4% ABV Pete Great beer, better name/label. Sweet and fruity, but also a little bitterness at the end to balance it. The dominant flavor is definitely mango, but this is more bitter than most of Trillium's others, but I still wouldn't call this a bitter IPA by any means. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Stroka
Wild Ale - 7.3% ABV Pete Collaboration with The Veil Brewing (haven't had any of those as of 7/30/21). This is perfection. Very funky and very tart, with the two battling for dominance on your taste buds as it goes down until some fruitiness and herbaceous notes come in in the finish. Ratings: Pete - 7 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Stumpy Duck
Pale Ale - 5.6% ABV Pete Smells citrusy. Mild citrus flavor with a tiny bit of pine. Incredibly easy to drink, this one was gone so fast. Great option if you want to have a bunch. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Summer Street
New England IPA - 7.2% ABV Pete Awesome. Super zesty and tropical. The tropical flavors lessen as the beer warms, and the zestiness gets amped up. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Sunshower - Amarillo Dry Hopped
Saison - 8.5% ABV Pete Solid beer. It's like a mix of light flavors from an IPA, saison, and tripel. My issue with it is that it's fairly mellow, and at 8.5%, you need much more flavor to avoid just tasting like alcohol. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Super Street Shark
Imperial New England IPA - 9% ABV Pete Collaboration with Bellwoods. It's awesome (shocker). Not as creamy as many Trillium IPA's, and it has a distinctive spicy character. That's nice to balance the sweetness from the high alcohol content, which definitely comes through, but only as a balance for the spiciness. Unreal. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Swishium
Imperial New England IPA - 8.5% ABV Pete Collaboration with Bissell Brothers. Looks like OJ, tastes somewhere in between OJ and grapefruit juice, with a super dry finish. Definitely leans more towards grapefruit. It's incredible, obviously. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium The Fens
New England IPA - 7% ABV Pete Super grassy and super creamy in the best way. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium The Harbor Islands
Imperial New England IPA - 8% ABV Pete A little sweet and intensely juicy going down with a touch of dryness in the finish that keeps you coming back. Damn good. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium The Streets
Imperial New England IPA - 10% ABV Pete This is definitely a good beer with lots of amazing flavors, but this ABV just makes it too sweet for me. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Tiny Chicken
Pale Ale - 5.6% ABV Pete Smells like a citrus bomb. The taste is a bit more mild, crisp and citrusy with a higher than normal amount of carbonation, making the flavor disappear fairly quickly after putting it down. I drank this incredibly fast. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Trailside
New England IPA - 6.8% ABV Pete A lot of fruit flavors listed in the brewery's description of the beer, but I taste none of the ones they listed. Still, this is incredible. Tastes like a lime creamsicle. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Treecreeper
Pale Ale - 5.5% ABV Pete Light and peppery, no bitterness whatsoever. That makes it super crushable. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Trillwater
Gose - 6% ABV Pete This is a collaboration with Stillwater. Good gose. It's sour and salty, leaning more towards the sour side. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Triple Seesaw Pineapple, Coconut, & Key Lime
Gose - 6% ABV Pete Pictured in the back. Surprisingly not all that sour. The key lime is very dominant, with a hint of pineapple. I didn't get any coconut at all, but I was happy about that. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Triple Seesaw Raspberry
Gose - 4.5% ABV Pete This is everything I was hoping for from this beer. It's super sour at first, and finishes with a ton of raspberry. It even has a little bit of a creamy texture to it, which was a nice surprise. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Twice the Daily Serving: Blackberry, Plum & Raspberry
Berliner Weisse - 7% ABV Pete Fruit smoothie for sure. Lots of fruitiness with a tiny hint of tart. On the sweet side, but I definitely did not have a problem finishing a 10oz pour, so it's not too sweet. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Twice the Daily Serving: Raspberry
Berliner Weisse - 7% ABV Pete This is so thick, it's like I went to a juice bar and got a raspberry smoothie. Definitely not complaining, as that delicious smoothie also has 7% alcohol. Dangerous. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Twice the Daily Serving: Raspberry, Strawberry, Blueberry & Cranberry
Berliner Weisse - 7% ABV Pete Sweet and fruity, with some tartness from the fruits. This is excellent. The sweetness does not prevent the beer from going down super fast. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Twin Bines
Imperial New England IPA - 8.4% ABV Pete I get some candied fruit flavor, but the hops in this are fairly mellow. Given the high ABV, it needed some more, as it came off a little bit sweet and fairly boozy. Still good. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium UPPER CASE
Imperial IPA - 9% ABV Pete Incredibly flavorful IPA. Described as smelling and tasting like overripe tropical fruits, and that is exactly true. It's also described as having a "doughy" mouthfeel, which I totally agree with, but I'm not sure that's a good thing. The flavors are incredible, but the texture is a little odd for me. Still, awesome. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Vanilla Truffle
Imperial Stout - 12.7% ABV Pete My goodness. Vanilla is there, but not a crazy amount. Marshmallow flavor along with some toffee. A little bit boozy, but more of a 'warms your soul' than 'punches you in the face' kind of way. It's just there to remind you that you'll feel good after this one (and shouldn't drive). Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Vicinity
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete incredible IPA. It looks like juice. Smells super citrusy, tastes a touch bitter on the way down, and finishes very fruity/citrusy. Also strong. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Wild Sinister Kid: Double Blackberry & Cabernet Grapes
Wild Ale - 12.7% ABV Pete Perfection. Funky, fruity, tart, and even a little smokey. Somehow doesn't taste strong either. Ratings: Pete - 7 Shyoh's |
|
Trillium Woolly Mullein
Wild Ale - 6.3% ABV Pete Very tasty. Little fruity, pretty tart and a little bit oaky. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
