Super Stout 2026 | River North Brewery’s Annual Stout Takeover in Denver

Our annual stout takeover returns Saturday, January 31, 2026 at 1PM.

If you made it through Dry January, you earned this.

If you didn’t, we see you and we thank you.

Super Stout is our yearly tap takeover where we dedicate the day to what we do best. Rare stouts, fan favorites, and new releases all flowing at once. From robust coffee stouts to bold barrel-aged creations, this isn’t just a tap list, it’s a tradition built around the beers that shaped who we are and the people who continue to show up for them.

And now, the reason we’re all here...

We’re releasing 10+ stouts for Super Stout, including two special bottle releases available at both taprooms.

Meet the headliners: Effed Up Stout and Nightmare Fuel.

Effed Up Stout

Sometimes an imperial stout just isn’t enough.

Effed Up Stout is our extreme imperial stout built for people who want more. Deeper. Darker. Heavier. More intense. It’s bold, unapologetic, and not for the faint of heart. Clocking in at 16% ABV, this beer will be available on draft and in bottles to-go at both taprooms.

Nightmare Fuel

Nightmare Fuel is our coffee imperial stout, and it has the hardware to back it up. This beer has earned major accolades, including gold medals from the World Beer Cup, Colorado Brewers Cup, European Beer Star, and Brussels Beer Challenge.

Brewed with locally roasted beans from Logan House Coffee, Nightmare Fuel is roasty, bold, and exactly what you want in a serious coffee stout. It comes in at 10.7% ABV and will be available in a fresh batch on draft and in bottles to-go at both taprooms.
