National Distributors Welcomes New Belgium

In April we were excited to welcome our newest craft beer brand, New Belgium. With many of our accounts hosting launch parties, it was an exciting way to welcome this popular brewery to Maine.

New Belgium was established in 1988 after original founder Jeff Lebesch toured through Europe on his fat tire bike, exploring villages famous for beer. Drawing inspiration and bringing his vision back to the United States, New Belgium came to life in his basement with the help of his wife, Kim Jordan. Today, New Belgium currently has breweries in Fort Collins, CO and Asheville, NC.

We will be carrying some classic New Belgium brews as well as some seasonal favorites. These include Fat Tire, Citradelic, Dayblazer, Voodoo Ranger 8 Hope, Voodoo Ranger IPA and Watermelon. We also will be carrying some specialty kegs featuring Clutch, French Oak Saison, La Folie, Le Terroir and Transatlantique Kriek.

With lots of varieties available, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
