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 - 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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: 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 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 |
