Fort Collins Major Toms American Wheat Navigates to a Seasonal

From Fort Collins:

Fort Collins, Colo. -- The Fort Collins Brewery, along with Gravity 1020

Modern Tavern has announced that Major Tom’s American Wheat will transition

from a full time brew into a summer seasonal beginning August 2014.

 

The unique creation infused with real pomegranates and filtered to a bright

finish, has been a part of FCB’s full time lineup for the last nine years and the

namesake holds a special meaning to FCB’s co-owner Tom Peters.

 

To keep up with the growth of FCB, Tom Peters sold his private airplane in

2004 to fund the brewery’s first packaging line. The brew, a favorite of Tom’s,

started in FCB’s tasting room and shortly after was introduced to the full time

lineup. To commemorate the occasion it was rightfully named Major Tom’s.

 

“Major Tom’s has become a defining brew for us over the last number of

years,” said FCB’s Owner, Tom Peters. “As the days get warmer and the time for

flying get’s longer, Major Tom’s popularity spikes significantly, where we feel the

transition into a summer seasonal makes the most sense.”

 

Once a seasonal, Major Tom’s will release in May of each year and will

remain packaging in 6-packs, as well as on draft.
