Epic Brewing premiered its spacious new taproom with a blowout last Saturday, serving 25 beers -- from a delicate sage saison to a hearty coffee stout -- and showing off the work it has been doing over the past six months.

Westword photographer Jim Wills dropped in on the grand opening; see all of his photos in our Epic Taproom opening slide show.
