Danny Fullpint Beer News, Solemn Oath Brewery
From the editor: Solemn Oath picked the right week to drop a big barrel beer. FoBAB has Chicago’s barrel-aged crowd in town Friday and Saturday, and The Narthex lands right in the middle of it as a bourbon barrel-aged dark abbey ale in 16oz four-packs. Every brewery in the Midwest is pouring bourbon barrel stout this weekend, so a Belgian-style dark ale in bourbon is the smarter play. Snaggle Fest follows next week if you need a second excuse.
(NAPERVILLE, IL) – THE NARTHEX, 2026
Brewing something people should know about?
Since 2007, The Full Pint has been where craft beer fans get their news. Breweries and beer brands can reach them too.
A formidable darkness, swallowed whole by bourbon, oak, & time, The Narthex sits somewhere between a monastic cellar & a midnight tryst. A Bourbon Barrel-Aged Dark Abbey Ale with rich molasses, dark fruits roll over waves of barrel-born oak, vanilla, & spiced cocoa with just enough warmth to keep it cozy the whole way through. Dropping fresh from its oaken hold at both taprooms. Consider this your invitation to find The Narthex.
Available: Draft. 16oz 4-pack cans.
Next week: SNAGGLE FEST
November 20th through November 22nd. All things Snaggle including three variants, Snaggle Packs, Snaggle tatts, Mudqueens, & more. Both taprooms. All weekend.
