It may have been past time for New Belgium Brewing to update the Fat Tire recipe. The VooDoo Ranger series of IPAs has been ahead of the iconic Amber ale for some time now.
And the inside and outside are now new for 2023.
“Today, Fat Tire blends a subtle malt presence with a slightly fruity hop profile and crisp finish, to create a bright and balanced beer that drinks easy, anywhere.”
I might have gone with seasonal versions and used this lighter one for summer and gone with something maltier in Winter.
