New Belgium Brewery has a mindful philosophy and tasty beers! The owners were inspired during a biking tour of Belgium and brought the art of Belgian-style brewing home to Colorado. This company strives to be socially and environmentally responsible. The nation's first 100% wind-powered brewery also donates $1 from every barrel sold to charity. After one year, employees are given ownership and an old-style Flyer bicycle. After five years of service, employees are taken on a bicycle tour of Belgium! Needless to say, these bikes are coveted around town, and hundreds of locals dream of working at the brewery. Stop by and take the tour. Sit down in the tasting room to sample. If you are lucky enough to live in the western states, pick up a Fat Tire for a taste of Belgium via Colorado.
