Notes

New Belgium's Fat Tire Amber Ale is a highly regarded example of the American amber ale style. This recipe is based on a clone recipe published in BYO magazine. New Belgium replaced this beer with Fat Tire Ale in 2023.

The original recipe was modified to be slightly darker by adding 1% chocolate malt to the grain bill.
