We have set out to wilfully maim and cripple the palates of the most extreme hop head. This act of wanton destruction is in the true spirit of what festive brews are about, to create something unique and fun. It is our intention to create a violent and needless disturbance in your olfactory senses. The riotous confusion, from the unnatural quantity of dry hopping, will leave your palate satisfyingly violated after having just one taste. Only the brave can be assured to tame this hop insanity.

Lots of crystal malt a touch of caramel, not enough body. Kinda enjoyable with some resiny grapefruit notes, but the malt profile is wrong. Moderately bitter finish.

Bottled. Clear golden, mid sized head. Evident aroma of lychee, grapefruit and pine. Sweet with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Driven by the tropical fruit-like hops all the way to the really bitter finish. A really tasty, highly aromatic ale.

Bottle. This is my third beer from Epic Brewing and I must say that Im impressed of the beers I´ve tried to this time. Mayhem reminds me a lot of the Epic IPA. It has the same white wine and gooseberry notes. The difference is the toffee/caramel notes in the background that the IPA dosent have. This makes this beer a little heavier and not as "super easy to drink", still drinkable though ;-) Well balanced.

50 cl bottle from Systembolaget. Pours medium off-white head with clear amber body. Head dies out pretty fast. Aroma is citrus, grapefruit, tropical fruit and pine, hoppy overall. Maybe some caramel/toffeeish malts. In the flavour more of the malty component comes through with light sweetness and light to medium bitterness. Light to medium bodied. Nice aroma but the taste is a bit... bland. Something diacetyl-ish is coming through as well.
