Epic Brewing has been making high-strength beers in the land of low-strength (Utah). Rather than expand their operations there, they chose to open a 2nd brewery in a more encouraging state, Colorado. This is their first batch of beer brewed here in Denver. Big, fruity hop aromas.

On tap at Beermongers. I understand the title. Footbalm and I once escaped to College Liquors. I was able to hide about 50 beers in various places around my place and somehow convince the wife I only picked up a sixer! That was nearly 7 years ago! Anyway, pours a clear copper color with a medium white head. A light resinous nose with some floral elements. Clean, oranges, big resin, some easy apricot, low bitterness. Solid brew. Nice job guys.

Tap at GABF 2013. Poured a hazy light amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is strong malt liqourice hop. The flavour is medium to weak bitter with a weak watery hop bitter palate. Not a great IPA IMO.

Bomber, for about tree fiddy - hazy orange with a substantial, fluffy lace - nose is bready, doughy, but with enough peppery, green, woody, zesty hoppiness punching through to make it inviting - sadly, the same cannot be said of the flavor - it is quite densely yeasty and dull - there is a nice creaminess to the texture, as well as a dry, somewhat biting mineral character - however, the only aspects of the hops that come through are the acidity and bitterness - their flavor is swallowed up in the muddled malts and yeast - it has potential, but hopefully the stuff coming out of the new Denver facility will begin go improve over this.

Bottle @ home, picked up at Wilburโs Fort Collins. Pours a hazy dark orange appearance with a nice, lasting, khaki head. Big spicy/piney, dank/weedy, grapefruity, resiny hoppy aroma. Orange candy, a bit thick toasted malty, spicy grapefruit-forward hoppy flavor. Some resin, bread, a bit goopy, bready yeast. Smells nice but the flavor is a bit syrupy/goopy. A lot of bitterness on the finish that lingers. Not too hard to drink but not something Iโd by again. Update: As it warms up, some fucken veggie notes come out. Goddammit.
