New Belgium Tasting

Started by Jeff and Kim Lebesch in their basement. They took the operation commercial, opening their first location in Fort Collins, Colorado in 1991 with a focus on Belgian inspired brews based on Jeff's time he had spent there. Among the original recipes included what is still their flagship beer today, Fat Tire.

Featured Brews:

Fat Tire Amber Ale: The flagship beer for New Belgium and truly an iconic one in the craft industry. Very nicely balanced with biscuity and caramel malts and just a touch of hops. 5.2%ABV/22IBU

Belgian Style Trippel: Part of their new “Belgian Collection” that was launched this year. A very traditional brew sticking to Pilsner and Munich malts and mainly Noble hops like Saaz and Hallertau Mittlefruh. Spicy, herbal, floral hop notes with a bit of those fruity banana esters. 8.5%ABV/43IBU

Accumulation White IPA: A late fall and winter seasonal. A nice blend of Nugget and Centennial hops added during boil and then dry hopped with Mosaic and Amarillo. Tropical fruits and bright citrus flavors from the hops, with a clean crisp finish. 6.2%ABV/55IBU

Voodoo Ranger DIPA: One of the fastest growing beers for New Belgium. A big piney, citrus hop bomb balanced with a touch of sweetness. 9.0%ABV/70IBU
