North Texas Explorer
Fat Tire
The Official Beer of North Texas Explorer

The November 2000 NTE Monthly Poll asked "Which beer should be the Official Beer of North Texas Explorer?"  The people have spoken and the winner and new Official Beer of NTE is Fat Tire (receiving 60% of the votes).  To review these and other past poll results CLICK HERE.
For the unenlightened, Fat Tire is made by the New Belgium Brewing Company, Inc., which is located in Fort Collins, Colorado and has just recently been made available in Texas.

From the New Belgium Website:
"Fat Tire's depth of flavor, achieved with neither a disproportionate sway toward hops or malts, tandems well with a full spectrum of today's engaging cuisine. Salmon, dry-aged cheeses, marinated steak, home-grown radishes, huge dagwoods, roasted chilis, mouth-blistering-hot pizza, omelettes at midnight, sweet potato french fries, just about anything with grill marks and definitely anything with garlic are just a few of the edibles we like to partner-up with our Amber Ale."

It's also good after a long day of Exploring.  Special thanks to our friends at New Belgium Brewing Co. for supplying us with the prizes for our first online contest!  (See pic below)
