As a coming-out-of-sorts, the New Planet Beer Company was proud to participate in the 1st Annual Boulder Brew and Music Fest, April 1, 2010 at the Fox Theater in Boulder, CO. Hundreds of eager beer connoisseurs and music junkies enjoyed small samples of Tread Lightly Ale as well as samples from some of the industry leaders including New Belgium Brewery, Deschutes Brewery and Stone Brewing Company. The day was topped off with Colorado musical acts Josh McWilliams, My Own Device and Vices I admire.

Not only did the Brew Fest provide us a great opportunity to converse with current Tread Lightly Ale drinkers, it was also a great way to introduce people to their first gluten-free beer experience. Our favorite quote from the first timers was, “It really tastes like beer!” In addition to conversing with the event’s patrons, the venue was ideal for meeting our industry leaders and colleagues who took a liking to our presence and our beer. Invaluable feedback and guidance was passed our way just as freely as we provided beer samples. All in all, this event can be chalked up as a success and we’re excited to participate in future brew fests this summer and fall. We look forward to meeting you!

New Planet Beer works with the Fort Collins Brewery to brew their certified gluten-free beer recipe. With Fort Collins Brewery’s dedication to detail, they are able to properly prepare every batch that meets our 100% gluten-free guarantee.

Who is the Fort Collins Brewery and what do they do? Simply put (but most importantly) they’re a family owned business that has more than seven years of hands-on craft brewing experience. The hopes and aspirations of the Fort Collins Brewery is to move closer to the heart of Old Town Fort Collins, create a spot for their own complete with restaurant and tasting room. But, for now they’re satisfied with seven full time brews and an award winning portfolio of seasonal and special release beers (just some of their awards are medals at the Great American Beer Festival, U.S. Open Beer Championship, Craft Lager Festival and the U.S. Beer Tasting Championship and more to come in the future…) When the guys at Fort Collins Brewery aren’t brewing they’re busy reaping the fruits of their labor at beer festivals like the Boulder Beer & Music Festival.
