Is there a public release of the NSA's annual Budget.

No.

If so is there a quarterly release.

No. One can, however, get an idea of the size because of the various screwups the budget committee makes. For example. This year a bar chart (to scale) representing the various agencies was released without exact numbers attached. The idea was to give the policy makers an idea about what the relation between the intelligence agencies was in terms of budget without giving away the exact figure. Of course the office of intelligence policy and review released a report giving the size of the entire intelligence budget. I believe the Washington Post had some reporter who pulled out a ruler and measured all the bars, then published the figures that went to each agency based on the total figure released. A quick search of the papers (last month?) will probably give you the figures.
