In the beginning, there was nothing. Then an impish brewer piled a ludicrous amount of hops inot a batch of beer. This zymurgical big bang is Epic Armageddon, an apocalyptic assault on your preconceptions and taste buds. It may be too huge for this fragile planet so enjoy this beer like it was the last one on Earth

Bottle from Beermoth, Manchester. Almost clear, light amber colour. Lots of fine bubbles keep a thin, white head going. Oranges. Light caramel. Soft toffee. Some grassiness. Hint of ripe banana. Taste is chewy sweet, with a decent, but not overwhelming, pithy bitterness. Smooth, light oily palate. Juicy, light bitter finish.

33 cl bottle (6.7%) @ William K. Kurvi, BBE 15.08.2014
Aroma is strong on caramel. Also some gluey and fruity tones. Flavour has fruity hops, glue, caramel and some harsh mineral tones. Finishes with lingering hops. Too much glue here.

Flaske fra polets nyhetsslipp: utseende som seg hør og bør, men skummet blir raskt til en tynn film uten blonder. Frisk aroma av citrus og litt karamell, og det samme inntrykket dukker opp i smaken. Balansert og lettdrikkelig. Et kompetent brygg som dog ikke lever opp til egenreklamen.

33cl bottle from Systembolaget, Sälen. Pours clear deep golden with a white head. Aroma of apricots, some pine, pale malt and hints of citrus. Medium sweet with fruity and hoppy flavours and a fairly decent bitterness. Finishes lightly dry and the aftertaste is bitter. Decent IPA, but not a favourite.

Bottle from Cornelius. Clear golden body with a large off-white head. Low carbonation. Nice lacing. Pungent, hoppy aroma - passionfruit (akin to BrewDog’s Punk IPA), lime, urine and caramel. Flavour of sticky resin and caramel, with the fruit notes playing a supporting role. A hint of mint on the finish. Sweet and bitter at the same time. Medium body with an oily texture. Light fizz. A true hop bomb. Delicious.

330 ml bottle from Systembolaget in Stockholm. Pours nice amber with a small top - that dissipates fast. Aroma is terrific - some resiny hop aromas mixing with art tropical fruits. Fruit cake. Taste is also quite fruity in the beginning - but somewhat oily and savoury in the finish. It has this oily-resiny-slippery mouthfeel -that feels actually quite refreshing. Good IPA, really refreshing!
