    Have never had this beer but I may have to try it just for the label.

    I LOVE this beer. We cannot get it in Florida.
    Belgium Brewery out of Fort Collins is VERY bike friendly. Wish I could work there.
    Folks in Colorado don't love Fat Tire as much as other beers, but I think it is because it is so readily available and there are SOOOOO many other micro-brews!

    I'm not a huge beer drinker, but even I like Fat Tire Beer. It's pretty tasty.

    If you live in Michigan, there is Bells, Arcadia, Shorts, AnnArbor brewing, Mt. Pleasant, Founders, New Holland, and several smaller ones I've probably had but can't remember the names. New Holland and Shorts make some really interesting and sometimes weird stuff. love em. I like the others out of state when I'm out of state, but here in Michigan, we have the best! Oh yeah, if you're ever in Waynesville NC, you gotta try out the taproom..Headwaters brewing. behind the sagebrush steakhouse.

    We have some Bell's Two Hearted Ale right now. It's also good.

    Ditto! Though I am still really happy that we now have New Belgium and Dogfish Head available, too! If only New Glarus would ship outside WI!

    Can't get it here, but I loved their commercials during the USA Pro Cycling Challenge.

    Fat Tire's not bad. I don't think we can get it in Ohio, though. We're still convinced that Bud Lite is beer. We can get Bell's (at least, some of it) and Dogfish Head.

    Great Lakes Brewery up in Cleveland has some tasty beer. Their Christmas Ale is something of an institution. You pretty much have to camp out in the stores to get it!
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    OMG! We rode through the town of New Glarus a couple of weeks ago on a bicycle tour called BREW (Bicycle Ride Exploring Wisconsin). Some riders toured the brewery. Every night there were "beer" tastings at Wisconsin breweries or restaurants.

    beer :)

    Hmmm, I'm up in northern MI right now, and will go beer shopping tomorrow. I like Bell's Great Lakes Lager, and Keewenah Widow Maker Black, but will try some more.

    Michigan has the best beers and breweries!

    We come up several times a year for racing and family. Our best bike racing and brewery tour extravaganza was when we came up last March for the Barry Roubaix race near Grand Rapids. We came up Thursday night to preride the course on Friday but it was raining so we went to Bell's for lunch to wait out the rain. We raced Saturday morning and then hit Founders to celebrate that night and then nightcaps at Vivant. We rolled the motorhome over to Holland to sleep on the beach (campground wasn't open so we parked behind some condos and ninja/stealh camped). Rode a nice recovery spin up and down the lakeshore with a nice lunch at New Holland.

    We had to come home because the fridge in the motorhome was full!!!!

    Just enjoyed a New Holland Envious last night!

    Boo, now I'm homesick.
