Epic Beer Tastings - Calendar

We have a bunch of tastings for Epic Pale Ale around Auckland over the coming weeks. So the best way we have come up with, for you to track and find out where and when these tastings are happening is a Google Calendar.

If you haven't had a taste, or have friends that would like a taste let them know about the Calendar and the tastings times and locations.

Cheers

"The hoppiest beer I have ever had"

I recently got an email from Ben at pint.com.au asking about Epic in Melbourne (sorry we aren't there quiet yet) and followed the link to his website pint.com.au, and found a forum on New Zealand beers, and it has a thread on Epic Pale Ale. Seems like a relatively new site.

Here are the comments from the forum on Epic Pale Ale.

"I was recently in a bar in Napier on the East Coast of the North Island of NZ. The owner recommended that we try a beer called Epic. And I have to say it was the hoppiest beer I have ever had. The aroma was amazing and the taste was similar. It claims to have 15 different hops in it but I suspect that a large quantity of Cascade is used. It had a slightly harsh hop aftertaste but nothing too bad. If you are in NZ I recommend that you try this beer. You can find a list of outlets at http://www.epicbeer.com"

"Yes the Epic Pale Ale was amazing. The aroma was incredible, similar to Little Creatures Pale Ale or Sierra Nevada Pale but perhaps stronger.

I reckon the Wigram beers from Christchurch were wonderful too. They also had great packaging.

Though I must say I was surprised that manstream NZ beers have even less flavour than mainstream Australian beers!"
