About This Beer
Epic’s Big Bad Baptist Reserve Stout is an annual, ultra-rare release, blending dark brews aged in some selected barrels. For 2022, the brewers went all-in on their Rocky Mountain roots, aging and blending their Stout base with Vapor Distilling bourbon and single malt barrels. But they didn’t stop there — to amp up the delicious dark flavors, they added sumptuous chocolate and coffee beans so even the smallest sip comes with a huge wave of choco-lava cake flavor.
Tasting Notes
First, the sweet fudge flavors blend with bourbon caramel, with tinges of peat settling on the taste buds. Bold notes of cacao lead to a roasty, bellywarming finish from the massive 13.6% ABV!
