(Kansas City, MO) – Boulevard Brewing brings back Bourbon Barrel Quad.

More specifically, KC Beer Blog reports that the beer is hitting stores beginning today.

According to Boulevard Brewing’s Julie Weeks, the brewery will post its brewers’ notes on the website today. Here’s an excerpt:

“The 2010 edition is unique because, unlike previous batches, it is 100% barrel-aged. The length of aging time ranged from eight months to three years using a blend of first-use, second-use and third-use oak bourbon barrels. Because more barrels were combined to create this batch, the cherry tartness is slightly more pronounced than in prior years, contributing to a greater overall complexity and depth of flavor.”

Weeks did not confirm how the new batch is being distributed. Perhaps no news is good news for those who have got it shipped to their areas before?

H/T to Charlie for the lead on this…
