New Belgium Creates Federal Political Action Committee (PAC)

New Belgium Brewery, the Colorado maker of Fat Tire, is getting into the political money game. The company filed this month to start the New Belgium Federal PAC, with the intention of donating to as-yet-undecided candidates and supporting causes important to craft brewing, including environmental policy.

The third-largest craft brewer in America by volume, New Belgium is a "values-driven company," says their government-affairs representative, Andrew Lemley. The brewery's cofounder, Lemley notes, had been a social worker. The aim of the new PAC is to try and get the brewery more involved with some of the values that the company, its customers, and other craft breweries like it care about.
