FORT COLLINS, CO – Pioneering U.S. craft brewery New Belgium Brewing will soon be selling its beer in Canada for the first time.
In a press release issued earlier this month, it was announced that the brewery will be on hand to pour beer at the Great Canadian Beer Festival in Victoria on September 6th, after which three New Belgium brands – Fat Tire Amber Ale, Ranger IPA and a seasonal release – will be available in 6 packs and on draught throughout British Columbia. These will be followed in December by Rampant Imperial IPA and limited releases of beers from the Lips of Faith, Hop Kitchen and Trip series.
New Belgium has partnered with import agency Beerthirst for the British Columbia market. Distribution plans for other Canadian provinces have not been announced.

- Greg C. is drinking a Thunder Gun Session IPA by Goose Island Brewhouse Toronto at Goose Island Brewhouse TorontoAt Goose Island dinner, paired with grilled polenta. A nice clean ISA with grainy malt & notes of orange zest & pineapple.
- Greg C. is drinking a Cavalier Bleu by Beau's All Natural Brewing Company at King & DufferinDidn’t like this at all to start. But then the blueberry+hops combo started to work for me, and I quite enjoyed it. Glad I stuck with it!
- Greg C. is drinking a Henderson Cup (Ides of February 2018) by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinNot a NEIPA, IMO - colour is too dark & it’s not hazy or juicy enough - but a decent IPA with citrus & blackcurrant notes & good balance.
- Greg C. is drinking a Canadaland Sour by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinNotes of lemon and sour peach, bit of unsweetened yoghurt. Light bodied, thin carbonation, medium length finish. Simple but not bad.
