Notes

First Brewed 10/2008

Chaos Theory is the most under- rated achievement of 20th Century science. This beer can only aspire to parallel to the mathematical use of the word chaos, which is at odds to the common parlance. The purest showcase of the magnificent hop that is Nelson Sauvin; grapefruit, pineapple and caramel sing above the chaos of life.
Get to know the guys in your local homebrew shop. They can give you a heads up when rare brewing materials – like Nelson Sauvin – are coming in.
