Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #112 Epic Brewing Big Bad Baptista
Mike was unavailable for this recording so our good buddy Larry filled in! It’s probably for the best as Mike would have most definitely hated this beer.
Style: Imperial Stout
Container: 22oz Bomber
Glassware: Teku Glasses
Notes: Big Bad Baptista is a combination of Vanilla, Cinnamon, Mexican coffee roasted by Blue Copper, and Solstice Chocolate cacao nibs. It’s luxurious to say the least, with a pleasant warming sensation generated by the cinnamon and alcohol. Enjoying the interplay of chocolate, malt, oak, and spice is the perfect way to spend a cool evening, with friends around a fire. (12.2%)
