About the Brewery
New Belgium Brewing Company was cofounded by Kim Jordan and Jeff Lebesch in Fort Collins, Colorado. The couple installed brewing equipment in their basement in 1991 where they produced test batches of Fat Tire Amber Ale and Abbey Ale. They would sell their beer for the first time at the Colorado Brewers Festival. Many accolades later as well as expansion into Asheville, NC; New Belgium Brewing Company is a success story born from a bike trip to Belgium in 1988!
Beer Reviews:
Tobin’s Review 4 out of 5
New Belgium Snow Day Winter Ale has a dark brown color and a light compact head. The nose of the beer has aromas of chocolate and hops. It is soft on the tongue with a slight chocolate taste with toasted grains. The beer has nice flavor and is both crisp and fresh tasting.
