New Belgium Fat Tire Special Release Belgian White. Alc. by Vol. 5.2%. Brewed and bottled by New Belgium Brewing, Fort Collins, CO & Asheville, NC.
New Belgium has many many witbiers over the years, but never one that was also called Fat Tire. Is this going to be a new thing for them, I wonder? Easier marketing, using the FT brand, since everyone seems to think the brewery is called Fat Tire, anyway?
Hazy pale yellow, slim ivory head above, looking perfect for the part.
In the nose: coriander, big ol' coriander, slice o' citrus, wheat, Belgian yeast, smooth, but spicy.
In the mouth: Nothing but smooth and easy drinking. Lightish/medium-bodied, light malt, low bitterness, just enough of the coriander, a touch of the citrus. Pretty tasty and easily pushed past the gullet.
Our Belgian Master Brewer's classic white wheat ale brewed with juicy Seville orange peel and freshly ground coriander.
Also: 25 years ago we started brewing Fat Tire Belgian Style Ale. It became an iconic beer, and a symbol synonymous with craft. Now, for the first time, we’re adding a new beer to the Fat Tire family: Fat Tire Belgian White. Taking inspiration from our decades of experience brewing Belgian beers, Fat Tire Belgian White is made with Seville oranges and Indian coriander, both freshly ground less than a mile from our Fort Collins brewery. It’s a fresh, perfectly sweet, natural tasting Belgian White.
