Great news for fans of Fat Tire and other awesome New Belgium beers (@newbelgium) … the company has rolled out Libation Location, a Google Maps API driven web service that enables you to locate places where you can get your favorite beer! Using the service, simply enter your location (or where you think you’ll be), for me I did a search for beer near Port Angeles, Washington.
Set a search parameter, for example, search within biking distance (5 miles) or search within car pooling distance (100 miles), then select the flavor of beer that you’re in dire need of! For me I need my Fat Tire, although I’m also equally happy if I can get me an Abbey. Click the "Libate Me" button and view all the locations of retailers, bars, and restaurants serving New Belgium product.
