About this beer
This is the 50th of 91 labels we have from New Belgium Brewing. It is one of 6 quad / belgian strong labels approved in June 2026. Its label was approved 1 day after it was submitted.
A gold-toned engraved holly branch with serrated leaves and clustered berries occupies the center of the label, positioned above and below the beer name in a symmetrical arrangement. The composition is vertically centered on a cream field with the brand name in hot pink at the top and regulatory text running vertically along both side margins. The palette is dominated by cream with accents of gold, hot pink, and black type, finished in a matte flat stock.
From the label“Layers of dark fruit, caramel, and subtle spice for the kind of depth that belongs to long evenings. Fermented with a classic Belgian abbey yeast, our Winter Quadrupel is rich, complex, and unhurried by design. Belgian-style ale inspired by centuries of Old World brewing tradition”
