Tasting notes by Joelle Thomson
Epic Mayhem tastes like the soul-mate of great French brie. This beer’s fresh earthy aromas and rich flavours taste like they have more in common with darker beers than this golden coloured brew. It’s big on green fresh hoppy flavours with an interesting bitter twist at the very finish stretching out the taste to a lingering conclusion.
