Bicycling Mag: Top 11 beers for biking
By Tim Cigelske • Jul 10th, 2009 • Category: Beer Runner Beers
Bicycling Magazine recently listed the top 11 beers that are “tied to cycling in name, label, or by support from the brewery.”
I’ll save the suspense and let you know that, yes, New Belgium’s Fat Tire made the list, as well as Flying Dog’s Tire Bite Golden Ale.
The article also unearthed a good variety of more obscure beers, such as the Pike Tandem Double Ale (described as “like a hybrid of the dark Belgian style with an American IPA”) and Arbor Brewing Company’s Tree Fort Beer (”likely the only beer brewed in collaboration with a bike shop”).
Check out the full list here.
Oh, and by the way, this is the 100th Beer Runner blog post. Here’s how it all started. Thanks for reading, everyone.
