After over a year of planning, prepping, brewing, barrel-aging, and blending, Epic Brewing Company has released its highly anticipated 2022 Big Bad Baptist Barrel Aged Imperial Stout Series. This year’s six unique variants were inspired by a combination of fan requests, popular desserts, and years of barrel-aging experience.
Toasted Coconut: Take a trip with us to the tropics. Feel the warm sand beneath your feet and dip your toes in the sea. Relax in the shade beneath a coconut grove and indulge in this luxuriously rich brew with no worries in the world.
Breakfast Baptist: Rise and shine, your delicious breakfast is bottled and waiting for you! Whiskey Barrel-Aged with real Vermont maple syrup then finished with coffee and cacao nibs. So, listen to your mother and don’t skip the most important beer of the day.
Ginger Bread: Run, run, as fast as you can, you can’t catch me I’m the gingerbread BEER! You don’t have to be sly as a fox to get your hands on this elusive brew. We listened to grandma and used real allspice, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and vanilla, to craft this tasty treat.
Orange Stick: Our take on the classic holiday dessert. Big and bold flavors of chocolate and coffee balanced elegantly by zesty orange. A lovely finale to an amazing meal with friends and family
Rum Barrel Aged: What’s the difference between a thirsty pirate and a drunken pirate? One has a rumbling tummy the other is a tumbling rummy! Imperial Stout 100% aged in Rum barrels
Barrel Strength: Epic’s cellar team has over a decade of experience perfecting world-class barrel-aged beer. Barrel Strength was refined through this wealth of passion and experience. Using the nest wood and in-house techniques, we’ve created a beer with flavors only attainable through true craftsmanship and patience.
