A Note on This Beer
Tulips are popping, bees are humming, and spring has officially sprung. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate than with Epic Brewing’s Oak and Orchard Blueberry Boysenberry Oak-Aged Fruited Sour!
The GABF award-winning brewers craft this Sour using a Lambic-inspired base beer built from Pilsner and White Wheat Malts, Spelt, and Flaked Oats. These ingredients add a subtle cloudiness and hint of sweetness. Then, the brewers add fresh blueberries and boysenberries and age it in oak foeders.
The resulting brew is a bursting berry beauty built for sunny picnics in the park and gorgeous springtime evenings in the garden.
It opens with a bloom of succulent, dusky blueberry followed by the tangy, raspberry-blackberry notes of boysenberries. Every sip gets accented by a bit of zesty, tartness and a dappling of vanilla-laced oak. It’s dewy and refreshing — like a walk through a misty botanical garden on a warm evening.
With this wax-dipped beauty in your basket, your spring sipping sessions will reach a whole new level of barrel-aged sophistication — whether you enjoy it on a blanket in the grass or lounging in the adirondack chair out back.
Just don’t miss your chance to grab one — like the here and gone nature of the season, our little stash is bound to disappear quick!
Craft Beer and Brewing and PorchDrinking both praise Epic’s Oak and Orchard series — Craft B&B even gave two variants ‘world class’ ratings of 95/100 and 98/100, respectively.
