New Belgium Brewing - Asheville

A classic, revived.

First released in 1999, our award-winning Blue Paddle Pilsner showcases tradition, restraint, and simplicity in a crisp and refreshing lager. Brewed with noble hops and premium pilsner malt, this Czech-style pilsner pays homage to its roots with a name inspired by the tool once wielded by a colleague's grandmother to keep mischievous beer sippers in line.

This limited release will be available tomorrow exclusively at New Belgium Brewing - Fort Collins and New Belgium Brewing - Asheville 🍺

Put some Vans in your hands.

Lauren Limbach, our Wood Cellar Director & Blender, ~adores~ the smell of violets. So, for our third Blender Project release, she set out to capture the magic of the violet using each part of its form.

In the wild, violet flowers exude a floral, raspberry scent, whereas violet leaves impart notes of cucumber and freshly-cut grass. To recreate this in beer form, we acidified our golden base beer with our house cultures in foeders, and after six months, transferred and infused the base with violet flowers, orris (iris) root, and violet leaves.

The beer’s name — Fleeting Violet — refers to an aromatic phenomenon unique to violet flowers. At first sniff, the aroma is present and distinct, then it’s gone, then it reappears. Our brain’s scent receptors shut down the aroma compound (ionone) and returns it moments later, gifting us with the fragrance once more. This might be why violets are describes as having a 'flirtatious' quality.

Friday May 3 from 6 to 8pm in the brewhouse!

Now here’s a beer that’ll make the crickets chirp.

This spring, we've joined forces with Subpar Parks to shed light on our wildlife that’s fallen short of expectations. Endangered wolverines? Perhaps they’d be more popular if we could get a quick pic.

While Subpar Parks usually blends illustrations of natural wonders with the one-star reviews they’ve garnered online, this year is all about the critters within them — or, rather, the lack of those critters.

Brewed with red currant, raspberries, and Mosaic hops, Subpar Pale Ale is a little sweet and a little bitter, just like your favorite one-star reviews. Find it 3/29 at our Liquid Centers or order online here: https://www.newbelgium.com/beer/subpar-pale-ale/

Congrats Bel, Beks, Ben, and Em for celebrating one year!!! 🫶
