Today you get to see River North Brewery Big Quad City. This Quadrupel ale is a blend of 75% ale aged in Rye whiskey barrels and Vermouth barrels. This is a limited run of 150 22oz bottles and it comes in big at 13.7% ABV.
This update from River North 7 Oct 2014:
As soon as we managed to get some Manhattan cocktail barrels, we knew we wanted to go big with them. Something decadent. Lavish. Opulent.
Those who know us, know we’ve been looking forward to this one. On Saturday, October 18th, after ten months in the barrel, we give you…Big City Quad!
Coming in at 13.7% ABV, Big City Quad is the highest-gravity beer we’ve ever released. Rich Belgian specialty malts meld with notes of rye whiskey, sweet vermouth and bitters, resulting in a magnificent quadrupel ale to savor now or cellar for a long as you can stand.
Both drafts and bombers-to-go ($15, limit three) will be available at the release party. More bottles will hit store shelves in Colorado and Kansas City in the weeks following the release.
Come down on the 18th and taste the beer we’ve been waiting a year for!
