FORT COLLINS LIFE Farm to foam: Beer in Fort Collins

By Sarah Ehrlich @SarahEhrlich96

When people think Fort Col- lins, they think of people riding their bikes and drinking beer, maybe even at the same time. This city takes pride in its res- idents’ love of nature, and the many craft breweries and dis- tilleries create a livelihood and sense of community here, which is unique compared to other places. The economy and culture of Fort Collins as well as all of Col- orado has relied on many types of agriculture, specifi cally fer- mentation. Fermentation not only creates alcohol products, but also breads, cheeses, yogurt, pickles, meats and many more common foods everyone loves to indulge in. Lucky for people who wish to feed others in an en- ticing way, they can enroll in the Fermentation Technology and Science major here at Colorado State University. This major is a unique op- portunity few universities have, and CSU is the perfect candidate to teach students about fermen- tation, with companies such as New Belgium Brewing and Odell Brewing that are more than will- ing to lend a helping hand to ed- ucate.
