After 30 years of microbrews, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Seattle’s brewing scene was a bit predictable. Enter Cody Morris and Epic Ales. From the umami powerhouse of his Terra-saurus to the Szechuan peppercorn- and cinnamon-laced Beatrice, he challenges conventional notions of what flavors you should expect in a beer. The small SoDo space that constitutes Epic allows only enough room to brew one barrel at a time, and each one’s handcrafted and esoteric nature is clearly evident.
