About this beer
This is the 15th of 34 labels we have from Epic Brewing. It is one of 59 barrel-aged stout labels approved in July 2026. Its label was approved 6 days after it was submitted. The label carries barrel-aged on the front.
A black and white line-drawn figure of a wizardly character with a long beard, feathered hat, and mystical symbols dominates the upper centre of the label. The character holds brewing ingredients — hops and grain — rendered in bold ink strokes with yellow and green accents on the hat and botanical elements. The composition is anchored by the beer name set in large golden serif type across the lower third, with the brand lockup in white and purple to the left, all against a deep purple ground scattered with fleur-de-lis ornaments in matching purple.
From the label“The streets of New Orleans are rich with music, mystery, and voodoo. Inspired by the legendary flavors of the Sazerac cocktail, this rye whiskey barrel aged imperial stout layers velvety depth with citrus zest. Classic and magical, let the Jazz wash over you.”
