Quick Facts:
  • Apple Vanilla mead
  • 6.1% abv.
  • Lightly carbonated

Chaos Cyser is the perfect intersection of mead, cider, and magic. Well, assuming that you also refer to vanilla as “magic,” like we do. Regardless of semantics, we can agree that this can holds something amazing.

Ensuing Chaos

Apple of Chaos Cyser - Groennfell Meadery
We've been hinting at it for months, nay, years.
Since January, we've been pointing at our tank and saying, "There it is, our fourth and final year round product: Chaos Cyser."

And then, appropriately, chaos ensued. There were months of delays, bumped schedules, and sourcing issues, not to mention general brew anxiety disorder (G-BAD, for those in the know).

But at long last it's ready. Final chilling has begun, kegging starts tomorrow, and canning on the 22nd.

We are now going to string you along with hints, secret sample events, and promises of glory.

In other words, dear Meadiacs:
Get Ready for Greatness.
