New Belgium Brewing Company of Fort Collins, Colorado was started by Jeff Lebesch and his wife Kim. The inspiration for this venture and the name for their first brew came after taking a bicycle tour through Belgium.
Like the ageless delight of pedaling a bicycle, Fat Tire Amber Ale’s appeal is in its feat of balance: Toasty malt flavors coasting in equilibrium with crisp hoppiness.
Fat Tire’s depth of flavor, achieved with neither a disproportionate sway toward hops or malts, tandems well with any food.
