Mar 29, 2018 at 6:13 comment added brendo234 To add to this, nitro beers (and other beverages) are now starting to be "dosed" with liquid nitrogen prior to capping to remove/eliminate oxygen, and in certain cases to add/maintain the nitro effect when pouring. Take a look at this: chartindustries.com/Industry/Industry-Products/Nitrogen-Dosing (short video on the page as well). Additionally, one of the engineers from Chart was on this podcast: dripsanddraughts.com/44

Mar 19, 2018 at 17:53 comment added joe92 With the edit showing another brewery which uses the hard pour technique as well I'll accept this answer. I'm quite sure there's no technique to the bottling or canning as my question asked and just a technique to the pouring. The "Pour Hard", or for probably trademark reasons, the "Surge Pour". homebrew.stackexchange.com/a/22664/3032

Mar 15, 2018 at 15:51 comment added Evil Zymurgist @joe92 basically just the pour. Bottling with 30psi nitro counter pressure and extra head space, does lend to more co2 release when pouring.
Mar 15, 2018 at 15:38 comment added joe92 It's interesting. I tried the 180° pour last night on a nut brown ale I bottled on nitro a few months ago (just using a normal beer gun). Looked pretty similar to the Nitro beers that Left Hand Brewing are selling and which made me ask the question. I wonder if this whole "secret" nitro trick is just down to the pour techinque.
