Elysian Apocalypse Fallout Cardamom Pale Ale

My buddy Matt opened a bottle of Elysian Fallout Cardamom Pale Ale, one of the twelve beers of the apocalypse. The beer pours an orange tinted gold color with a bubbly white head. The aroma is floral with cardamom and has lemon accents aplenty. The taste is dry and floral that focuses on cardamom. Lemon, caramel, and pepper provide light background accents to the flowers. The alcohol content is 7.3% ABV. I liked the floral content in this beer, as it was extremely focused on that, and I believe it to be the intent of the beer.

Elysian Apocalypse Rapture Heather Ale

As always, I stop in to Fat Head’s when I am in Pittsburgh, and this time I ordered a glass of Elysian Apocalypse Rapture Heather Ale. The beer pours a golden color with a bubbly white head. The aroma is bready and has lemon, pepper, and caramel mixed in as well. The taste is round and smooth with a bready mouth feel. Lemon, pepper, and caramel come out on the finish. This beer is lightly carbonated on the tongue, and the alcohol does show through the flavors. The alcohol content is 7.0% ABV. I can’t say this beer was very memorable, so was it worth the price paid. All of the flavors work well together, but they just don’t dazzle the tongue.
