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

Dark golden with a white head - Very good hop aroma with flowers. tropical fruits and some hints of pine - A very good hop flavour in the body with fruits and some pine, and a good malt body to support the hop - a good dry hop finish that lasts for a long time - this was very good and it has a good hop profile

330 ml bottle bought @ Systembolaget. Pours clear golden with a frothy and slightly bubbly offwhite head that is rather quick to dissipate while leaving a small trace on the glass. Smell is fruity, herbal and hoppy fresh with freshly cut grass, green grapes, pine needles, gooseberries, passionfruit, papaya, pineapple, crackers, cape gooseberries, moist wood, lemon zest, pink grapefruit juice and hints of dill and lemon balm. Taste is bitter, slightly fruity, tiny metallic and slightly herbal with pink grapefruit juice, lemon zest, pine needles, freshly cut grass, passionfruit, pineapple, lemon balm, dill, Thai basil, crackers and fruit infused black tea. Mouthfeel is dry, crisp, slightly astringent and light to medium bodied. Finish is bitter, tiny fruity and slightly herbal with crackers, passionfruit, dill, lemon balm, freshly cut grass, green grape skins and pine needles. Very refreshing session IPA.

Bright clear amber - gold beer, tidy white head. Light palate, fairly dry. Very nicely judged hops - light, fresh and flavoursome without being heavy or bitter. Grass, gooseberry. lime and a little of both orange and grapefruit marmalade. Mild floral notes. Semi dry finish with a trace of mint. Very easy drinking.
