Open Enrollment for Norther Society Starts This Saturday, January 9th

At long last, we’ve made it to January and got through the holidays during a pandemic! To celebrate, we are opening our Norther Society to new members this Saturday, January 9th at our North Washington Street taproom.

To become a member of the Norther Society means you will get six unique Single Cask bottles released throughout the year, discounts on full pours at both taprooms, a merch discount, happy hour deals as well as a killer holiday party at the end of the year (when there isn’t a raging pandemic causing them to switch to a virtual holiday party, special Norther glass AND an extra Single Cask release). With a private Norther Society Facebook group and Norther-specific emails sent out monthly, you will be the first to know about upcoming releases, special bottle shares, and other Norther Society and River North Brewery news. This limited Norther Society membership program will open Saturday, January 9th at the North Washington Street taproom at 12pm.

To kick off open enrollment, we are releasing our first release in the Single Cask Series for 2021. The River North Brewery Single Cask series is a series that will engulf barrel aged beer lovers for the whole year, releasing six bottles of different styles of beer that have been aged for months in one-time only barrels. These super small batches vary between styles; you might see a stout or a quad or perhaps a saison that the brewer decided to throw in a unique barrel. When you become a member of the Norther Society, one bottle from all six of the Single Cask series is included in the membership and you don’t have to worry about picking it up the day of the release as the brewery will hold all of your bottles in a temperature control room for the year.

The first Single Cask to be released is a Barrel Aged Double Avarice Single Cask. Barrel Aged Double Avarice has become a favorite between the team at River North, for Northers and for those that are able to get their hands on this giant stout. This Barrel Aged Double Avarice was aged in Colorado Single Malt Whiskey barrels and comes in at 15.2% ABV.

Head to the North Washington Street taproom this Saturday, January 9th to join the Norther Society and get your first Single Cask of the year!
