Goose Island Beer Co. was acquired by Anheuser-Busch in 2011, expanding its reach in the craft beer market.
Thirteen years after the release of one of its most iconic brews, Goose Island Beer Co. is resurrecting a legend. The Chicago-based brewery-widely credited with pioneering bourbon barrel-aged stouts-has announced the return of King Henry, reimagined and reborn as King Henry II. Aged in 2024 Bourbon County Rare barrels, this English-style Barleywine is as rich in history as it is in flavor. For longtime Goose Island fans, the revival of this legendary beer is more than a release-it's a homecoming.
