#CoSo #Beer question of the day.
Carrying over a discussion going on elsewhere, we are asking this - rebranding.
#NewBelgiumBrewing announced they updated the look the recipe of their icon Fat Tire Amber Ale.
Left is the updated look and right is the old look.
The question is, would you still drink it knowing it's not the same recipe? And what about the look of the new label?

#Beer #Photography #Idaho #California The last 4Seasons of 2022, #MotherEarthBrewing's latest release has notes of cinnamon, marshmallow, dark chocolate, and some burnt vanilla. Full thoughts here, https://instagram.com/p/CnaxdmPp_ze/

#Beer #Photography #Idaho #California The latest Project-X series release from #MotherEarthBrewing, Idol Worship goes all in on New Zealand and Australian hops. The result is a beer that has notes of passionfruit, pineapple, gooseberries, and a bit of pine. (Because of character limits, our full thoughts are here https://www.instagram.com/p/CnikJLtr-fC)

Released as part of
#ZupansMarkets Farm to Market series, #Fermentbrewing's Old No. 22 caps off 2022 in the right way. Overall, this is not your usual barrel-aged imperial stout. Instead, this is a beer with notes of dark chocolate, toffee, bitter earth, and bright dark fruit.

#CoSo #Beer question of the day - barrel-aged. Echoing a question on the bird site, what are some of your favorite barrel-aged beers? Note, this isn't exclusive to those aged in barrels from distilleries. This can include barrels from wineries, newly coopered, in foeders.
