14th Star Quad D’erable Anniversary Ale
14th Star Brewing Co. Quad D’erable 2014 Anniversary Ale has arrived!
If you have never heard of it, that is because it previously was only released at the brewery.
We got one shot at it so get this Maple Quadrupel Bourbon Barrel Aged Ale smartly wrapped in stunning packaging while you can!
12% ABV | $24.99/750ml
From the packaging –
Thank you for supporting 14th Star Brewing Co. The amber beer you hold in your hand is a Belgian Quadruple Ale and is the culmination of two years if hard work and attention to detail. This special limited anniversary release was brewed with local maple syrup and has been aged for over a year in a bourbon barrel we acquired from Smugglers’ Notch Distillery.
Local Vermonter and beer enthusiast Ethan Allen was a leader in the effort to make Vermont the fourteenth star on the U.S flag in 1971. Today, we continue the tradition of honoring our state and passion at 14th Star Brewing Co. Our Quad D’erable is a big Belgian quad. This amber beer is brewed with maple syrup, giving it a sweet taste up front and a dry finish. Enjoy!

Lost apple
These ciders are made from Lost Apples of the Champlain Valley. By Lost Apples, we mean apples that homesteaders planted for homemade hard cider over 100+ years ago. Colin, David, and the Shacksbury Team, with the help of Michael Lee from Twig Farm and Brad Koehler from Windfall Orchard, forage through cow pastures, meadows, and forests of Vermont to harvest, then press and ferment these apples into a one-of-a-kind cider. If we love the cider from a particular tree, we graft it back into production.
