About
David Cole and Peter Erickson are the founders and co-owners of Epic Brewing Company. Cole and Erickson, originally from California, started an international aquaculture company in Utah in 1992. In 2008, Utah law changed allowing these two entrepreneurs to pursue their longtime dream of opening a strong beer microbrewery in Utah, like those they frequented in the Golden State.
Admittedly, beer geeks, foodies, and "Epic" adventure junkies, share a passion for making and drinking fine ales and lagers. The Epic team has a strong belief in doing everything "all out."

Galloway Porter from Epic Brewing Company

7.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Courtesy of douglas88. Pours deep mahogany with thin copper edges and tall tan head. The aroma is musty dark roasted malts, a touch of chocolate and a bit of burnt malts. The taste is smooth with a brief pulse of caramel malts quickly moving into dark roasted malts and a thin ribbon of burnt malts. After a few ounces a touch of smoke comes to the surface adding to the experience.

7.8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7
Bottled at The Beerhive, Salt Lake City, UT. Cloudy pale amber, rich firm head. Generous hop aroma: pear, peach and grapefruit. Medium-full bodied with fairly soft mouthfeel. Rather sweet with lots of citric hops. Staying well shy of getting cloying or inky. Long citric bitterness.

7.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 10 Overall 7
Bottled at The Beerhive, Salt Lake City, UT. Dark brown, rich firm head. Mild coffee aroma. Mid sweet with soft, well defined maltiness. Coffee and mild caramel, mildly hopped. The rather subtle flavours in this porter can blossom, thanks to the excellently well crafted malt profile, where the gentle softness allows full access to the slightest whisper of flavour.

Pfeifferhorn Lager from Epic Brewing Company

6.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Courtesy of douglas88. Bomber pours clear gold with full off white head. The aroma is floral hops, spicy hops, grainy and sweet lager-y-ness. The taste is similar with plenty of spicy hops to go along with some floral hops, grainy malts and sweet lager-y yeasty notes. The sweet notes try to pile up into the finish but the noble hop bill fight it off nicely. Interesting brew.

Copper Cone Pale Ale from Epic Brewing Company

8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Courtesy of douglas88. Bomber pours hazy copper with tall frothy tan head. The aroma is malty and pine with grapefruit like citrus around the edges. Smells like a solid IPA. The taste is similar with a nice thick rich mouth feel pushing up pine and some sweet malts, grapefruit, spicy hops and a bit more pine. Nice stuff. I could drink a boat load of this.

Hopulent from Epic Brewing Company

8.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 9 Texture 10 Overall 8
Bottle - thanks to Footbalm. Pours a glowing brownish copper color with a large, creamy beige head. Nose is sweet and fruity hops and heavy with pine resin. Great indication of the goodness to follow... Tastes hop forward with citrus, pine, and modest florals. Some caramel. Wet mouthful and a great finish. Simple; lots of bitterness and drinkable to no end. First rate. If this were readily available for me it would replace milk.
