Epitome
Imperial Black Ale
ABV: 10.3% | IBU: 100 | SRM: 42
We don’t have many rules at Carton Brewing and those we have we made up for ourselves. In general though, we strive for drinkability through balance and harmonization of flavors. But even self-imposed rules are meant to be broken. With Epitome we decided to embrace the teenage metalhead in each of us and get discordant with a seriously hoppy, high gravity black ale. The only notions accepted were to make it bigger, bolder, hotter, and faster. A beast. The ABV had to push past 10, the black had to be “none more,” and the hops had to be American and piled on like a double bass drum kicking faster and harder. Drink Epitome because things worth doing are worth over doing.

I tasted regular coffee at high street grill in mt holly nj back in January and have been looking for it ever since – cant seem to find it anywhere! I see that its being poured at 12 steps down in philly on june 4th – will I be able to purchase growers?
I believe it’s being released in February 2015. I remember reading a post a few weeks back.
I am at the brewery. Hat Tavern takeover is on June 19th, not 20th.
I just tasted your small batch Carton at the Hat Tavern in Summit. Bravo!!!
I am savoring it from start to (hopefully I never) finish. Nice job.
BTW. This is my first opportunity to enjoy you beer. I will look for it in the future.
Salute,
Tim
