Brooklyn Brewery and Four Roses Distillery announced the release of the 2025 edition of Brooklyn Black Ops (12% ABV) \u2014 the seventh annual release in their acclaimed collaboration.<\/p>\n

Since 2019, each year the teams behind these brands come together to celebrate the shared craftsmanship of brewing and distilling. The 2025 vintage once again showcases a Russian Imperial Stout aged for three months in Four Roses Small Batch Bourbon barrels, hand-selected by Four Roses Master Distiller Brent Elliott.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The result is a beer with extraordinary balance \u2014 bourbon warmth and depth layered into rich stout character, yielding a smooth, indulgent finish.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going to say that Black Ops 2025 might be our best Ops release yet,\u201d Brooklyn Brewery James Beard Award-winning Brewmaster Garrett Oliver said in a news release. \u201cAll the flavors are punchy, sleek, racy and so well-integrated and smooth that the 12.4% ABV is a bit sneaky. This is a \u2018stout-drinker\u2019s stout\u2019 full of clean roast flavor and beautiful bourbon notes \u2013 I\u2019m loving it after dinner and with desserts.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s always a pleasure to revisit this collaboration and search for the exact Four Roses barrels that will best complement the incredible beer Brooklyn Brewery creates,\u201d Brent Elliott, Four Roses Master<\/p>\n

Distiller, said. \u201cThis partnership allows me to think a bit differently \u2014 to explore how our bourbon can take on a new life while still delivering the balance and nuance Four Roses fans expect. It hits all the right notes for our loyal bourbon drinkers, yet offers a flavor profile that\u2019s entirely its own.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2025 Brooklyn Black Ops will be available beginning late October in 16-ounce four-packs nationwide where Brooklyn Brewery products are sold, as well as at Brooklyn Brewery\u2019s Tasting Room in Williamsburg, and the Four Roses Distillery Visitor Center in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky and Cox\u2019s Creek, Kentucky.<\/p>\n
