Difference in Taste of Fat Tire?

[hurley842002]

I don't care for much from NB these days, I will give them props on their Trippel, and do partake in those from time to time, that one is well done for the price.

Brace yourself, if you haven't been to old town lately. WE haven't been to OT at night in years. Thursday went for dinner, trendy is the buzz word in OT. Very Trendy crowd. Along with a moderate crowd of bums freeloading at the Galleria, keeping warm. Thankfully the colder temps either slowed them down or off the streets.

The last time I spent an evening in Old Town was the June 11, 2016. Participated in a very nice Pub Crawl (I did not have to pay!) and we visited many establishments, got to see a lot of different bars and "Trendy" was in full force at some of them. It was a good night and after the 4th stop I made sure to argue with all the Bernie supporting bums that dared to spout off. Every one of then crawled back into their gaggle of like minded idiots. It was a great time.

There are some new breweries around the Fort that are not downtown.

I don't know if it was this, or the quad, but I really wanted to like it, but just couldn't.

Haven't tried the quad, but am impressed with the Trippel.

When I was in college in Spearfish, SD, we'd have to drive into WY to buy Fat Tire. I've since had to boycott New Belgium because of their public stance against the oil and gas industry. I don't remember the last time I had any of their beers. I used to enjoy them.

I once drove to Ellsworth AFB for Boulevard

I used to love Fat Tire when it first came out. Now it tastes like crap to me.

Meh. Tasted alright this morning.

It all tastes like shit to me. I can get a beer down to be social if I have to but eh.

The Trippel is OK. I recently got some of the Abby, their dubbel, after not having had it in a while and it tasted different then I remember as well.

If you like a good quad, The Reverend from Avery is excellent.

I liked Fort Collins Brewery, sad now that they are gone.

Horse and Dragon have some good beers on tap.

We don't get out as much anymore so we have not tried most of the new places around NoCO. We will though come the Spring.

+1 for Horse and Dragon! We went up and did a few breweries up there a few weeks ago, and went to H&D on the recommendation of a friend who is quite a beer connoisseur and were not disappointed. We also did the O'Dell's tour and had a lot of fun. I think O'Dell is far superior to NB- and it's just a short walk down the street!
