New Belgium Fat Tire

I had heard so much about this beer for so long that when I tried it I already knew it was going to suck. But what came was a beer that I would expect to have a Saab Miller/Coors name in fine print on the backing. This tasted like carbonated water that chicken had been cooked in, and left an aftertaste of the sweetish glue that sticks on your tounge after licking a letter to close it. A beer with zero redeeming qualities, other than that it looks darker than a macro beer. I would call this the Macro of Micro, because every non beer drinker knows it, likes it, and feels good about knowing and liking it even though every real beer drinker knows it is a shite beer and thinks less of the people who pull out the name Fat Tire when they try to tell of the better beers they are into. This is a beer for the guy who claims he is a "beer drinker" but doesn’t even know what a Westy is, or comes up with some excuse for why he still drinks a macro beer after trying real beer. If I had enough money I would buy this just to pour it out.

Pours a slightly dark amber with a wee bit of head. Nose is of delicious malt. The crescendo/decrescendo of this beer is one of the best. It finishes at the exact moment that it should. If I were locked up in a bunker with an endless cold supply of this, I would die a happy man. One of my domestic favorites.

A very thin pour, no head. No overpowering aroma. Tastes of toasy biscuits....drinkable and extremely mild hoppiness.

Bought this at a beer store in colorado, white foam, fresh malt aroma, caramel taste with hints of chocolate

Had this from a 12 oz can.Poured a orange-amber color with a large white head.Aromas were of biscuits and malt.Those aromas were also present in the taste as well as light hops and nuts.No too bad.
